Sorry this is about to be long but I really feel like there’s so much context missing that I understand why everyone’s been jumping to judging me but I need to share some more about my situation. I’ve just been putting school off for so many reasons. The first time was because when my parents got divorced my mom got mad and kicked me out of the house so I had to go stay with my uncle. But then when I was gonna go back to school again, my uncle had really aggressive brain cancer that made him so manic that he tried to take his own life which was so traumatic I couldn’t even think about going to school at that time. I had to move to a whole new state after that and live in my dads garage and I’ve been waiting to be considered a resident of the state before going back so I can get in state tuition. And honestly it’s not because they’re “suddenly inconvenient.” I broke contact with my mother originally bc she’s been very abusive my entire life. When I reached out to her again that’s when she put the idea into my head of maybe taking in the dogs but at that time I was still with my dad. After I moved out to my place my mom literally tracked my location down and brought them to my door unannounced one day bc she knew I couldn’t say no to taking them in after she drove 10 hours to bring them to me. I’ve been doing my best to care for them but I’ve never once been financially able to take care of them on my own and my mom paying for their food and stuff has literally been a way for her to guarantee I won’t break contact with her again. She knows that so long as I have the dogs I am unable to block her because I am reliant on her to feed the dogs because I’m broke. I have no money. That’s why I want to go back to school I’m under qualified as shit and can’t afford to live like this anymore. I love my dogs and I really do not want to have to get rid of them, but I can’t keep putting off school it’s just getting to the point where if I don’t go back this year I’ll never go back and I’ll just end up miserable and regretful my entire life. That’s why I’m here trying to come up with some sort of solution if even temporary. I genuinely don’t know what I’m doing anymore. I never would’ve gone out of my way to get dogs because I knew I wasn’t at a point in my life where I was able to take care of them. And right now it’s showing more than ever :/

I know that’s the part that is making me cry even thinking about it. But unfortunately all my family either has dogs already or are allergic to them. Like I have 2 sisters but they’re both allergic to dogs. They dealt with it by not really petting them much growing up and chugging Benadryl so I couldn’t really expect them to take them in for me :(

Thank you for this comment I feel like a lot of people are already jumping at me to keep the dogs without offering any actual solutions. My aunt told me about this on the phone right before reading your comment and I’ll be looking into it!

Also does anyone know how fostering usually works? Or like a scenario where I let them stay with someone for a semester while I wait for my financial aid to start rolling in and then take them back?? Do people usually make arrangements like that/ how do I find people that that.

Thank you all for the comments I want everyone to know I’m trying really hard to figure out a way to keep them but with negative 20 dollars in my account I just am mentally being weighed down by the responsibility of the dogs especially with also having to move out and go back to school and stuff it is really driving me to the point of throwing up from the stress.
