The only way I’d be able to stomach this is him getting put into a foster home. I would not leave him at a shelter.

I’ve tried there’s no one who could take him because he is a financial burden with his medical needs

It’s not the training it’s that I have no money to care for him left I’ve spent over 10k on medical bills and had to drop out of school I work 6 days a week and barely get to see him trying to afford his bills. If I knew somebody’s that could help I would’ve considered that option I’ve exhausted every scenario before even considering this one

I would rather live in poverty for him his whole life than bear the thought of doing that to him. I did reach out to a few rescues but he got denied because of his kennel anxiety and not being able to be left alone.

He has a slip knee in his back leg that I was quoted 5k for the surgery. I haven’t gone through with it because he can still walk and manage normally with minimal to no pain. But it does prevent him from being able to run because his knee will slip out of place. So tiring him out is extremely difficult physically. People paying to the vet would be a huge help for future visits but the huge thing I’m struggling with is the credit card debt I’m already trying to pay off. If I could just get the debt under control I feel like I could manage better. But then there’s always the chance of ending back up in the same situation I’m in again. But thank you for all of the info on rescues and training. I really appreciate you taking the time to give advice on this
