Ok i got my new 6 week old puppy (bedlington x whippet x staffy) on saturday.
He is with us earlyer then he should be because the bitch had 9 pups and struggled to produce enough milk for all of them.
Anyway The text to say could we have him early was just as i was getting a hefty stomach virus.
I cannot stop going to the loo, being sick and sleeping is impossible. As i just feel sick constantly.
Now the puppy is home, i feel 100% worse. As im having to get up in night for him, its killing me.
I have not got the energy to play with him and by 10pm im out for the count as he is waking up.
My temper is getting the better of me aswell and im getting rather pushy with the pup. When he chews and growls and screams at me and i struggle to get a handle on myself.
If i was not ill maby i would feel differently but im seriously considering giving puppy back to the breeder. I have bonded with him to an extent and i dont think im up to this.
I know its a bit late now but what do i do? My temper is getting worse the sicker i get!
I also have mental health issues such as anxiety and depression! Im getting very weepy and anxious around him aswell.
When he bites hard, i grabbed him by the scruff so his front paws were off the ground, but he just growls really loud and trys to turn and bite me, which in turn makes me mad.
Im thinking im not cut out for puupy hood! I have 60 birds, a snake, a hamster and 2 cats as is that i have had for YEARS. Now i feel i have made a mistake and destroyed everything!
Help! im such a bad person for taking on this puppy and wanting to give him back. What do i do?
I know i should just hrit my teeth and carry on but I DONT WANT TO.
Its getting too much! Already
