Time to say Goodbye...

Gemyni's new dad just left with her! She now lives in NJ. Which isnt that far from my house but far enough. My mom couldnt even handle her leaving so she wouldnt even stay so she could see her off. Her new dad(which is my stepmom's sister's fiance) loves her to pieces. I don't know how many times he called me today saying "are you sure its okay if I come and get her tonight?, "Your still gonna give her to me right?" lol. He was smiling from ear to ear taking her things down to the truck. I was telling him sorry about the hot pink collar I didnt have time today to get a more toned down one. And he's like Oh dont worry about it I'mma hook Gem up! LOL. He's even taking her to Missississpi(sp) this summer when he goes! And Gem has 3 kids to keep her busy and another dog an APBT to play with! And he told me whenever I want to see her he'll bring her over and I'm welcome to come over and see her any time I'd like. Which most likely I'll see her over my dad's house. So it worked out. I'm quite sad but I know she'll be taken care of!

why did you rehome gem?

She doesnt listen to women AT ALL! It's so hard to take her out in public b/c you never know when she's going to act up. She was beat by a man before I got her. She grew fond of my mom so I gave her to my mom. But my mom was like she just won't listen. She was already in OB beginners and she KNOWS basic commands but refuses to do them when told. Now that we got her to liking men again we thought it be best for her to have a man owner. Anytime a man tells her to sit or laydown she does it wiggling her butt! lol. We just thought it be best especially w/ her being an APBT. Not showing a positive image and not behaving in public is a no no. And she's w/ family so I KNOW she's safe!

thats awsome i am glad to hear that you will still be able to see her sometimes and man she sure got big and very pretty

aww well i know that you will miss her but I am sure she will be safe and happy.....

I cant even sleep! I keep getting this feeling he might bring her back. I don't know why though.

Yea it's always good to get them with family where you know you will be kept posted! Sorry to hear things didn't work out though.

*gives you big hugs* Don't worry, from the sound of it he's going to love her like his own kid!

Yeah I called this morning...I know I know...I think I got about 3 hours asleep last night so I had to. He said she was fine and was still sleepy this morning when he got her up to go to the potty and to eat. She is definitely not a morning dog unless she's gotta go potty. lol. I even called out from work today so I can try and catch up on some sleep!

Nope. We did so much to get her to like men again w/o submissive urniating everywhere at the sight of one. That now thats all she listens to and becomes !!!!! near obessed w/ any guy that comes in the door. My brother comes over and she just won't leave him alone. she follows him around the house wagging her tail, grabs her ball and runs circles around him. And he doesnt even come over that often! lol I have to yell at her for her to behave or for her to do anything. I'm not used to doing that with Legend or when I had my GSD. My fear was always what if she gets out of the house? I'm very careful when she's out of her crate but it was always in the back of my mind. I know she won't come when called b/c she doesnt when in the house/yard. But the minute you go to grab her by her collar she runs to the spot where you were just at wiggling around. LOL.

That realy sucks....

Awwww Sorry to hear that!!! But ya gotta do what ya gotta do!!!! So i hope that you feel that YOU made the right choice!!!

I"m glad everything worked out the way that it did. Hope you get plenty of sleep tonight!!!
