My joy and my sorrow

| No Comments

Ned has his good days and he has his mental days.
His medication, I believe is partially working but it was my fault that the proper training was never implemented. We are trying.. alot of trial and error.
The past few weeks, he's soiled the house.. not mine mind you.
It's almost emotionally tiring.
On the one hand, I feel so sorry for him.
On the other, I sometimes wonder, why me.

I brought him into the park earlier today. I usually avoid places with other dogs but I figured, maybe it might help him being near other canines.
Boy, was I wrong.
He behaved well for about 10 mins but the other dogs were playing with one another and I guess he felt left out. Or he started to feel uncomfortable and started to talk.
It got quite loud.. and I sensed disapproving looks from the other dog owners.
I always appreciate advice but it's more valuable coming from someone who has or is living with a fear aggressive dog.
Granted I would never know if you ever did, but please, spare me your thoughts right now.

I would do anything to have a well adjusted dog like yours, but I don't.
I would do anything to discover how he lived his past 5 years. Anything.
Just don't judge me.

At the end of the day, I don't have a well adjusted dog, instead, I have one who has issues being apart from any human contact. But nonetheless, he is part of my pack.
And we have the 3 of us.
