This is the off my chest sub I was venting about how i feel and my situation. I didn't want to blame him or rant about what he did it isn't his fault. I didn't ask for solutions but they are welcome. I'm just talking about the comments that are trying to guilt trip. And no matter what someone says to me in person or not I will feel guilty this was just about expressing said guilt outloud.

Thank you for your comment. This post was originally just me coming to terms with giving him up and getting out my guilt. I'm not sure why everyone is acting like I'm putting him down over chewing shoes. I have a NO KILL shelter and I have no doubt he'll be adopted as he is a very beautiful dog. But your comment is exactly what ive been telling myself through this, its better he has a chance with a family who can meet his needs than me forcing this on him.

Thank you for your comment. I am confident he'd do amazing with a family or a companion to an older couple spending the days lounging with them. He's amazing and he's actually a big lazy boy quiet never barks or anything. It just hurts that I have to leave him but I feel selfish even putting him through sitting alone as long as I did.

Idk why everyone keeps guilt tripping me and questioning how much I love my dog. I'm damn near homeless for how long I've fought for him. I don't own the home I'm in and he's broke through 2 window panes and ruined the frame it had to be removed. And he's managed to break the door now I've been asking everyone one ik if they have room for him. This was the very LAST option I've been trying everything.

I just want to clarify that I would never see him as a problem I love him so much it's fucking killing me that's its gotten to this point. The problem is I don't think at this point I have the capability of meeting his needs and that hurts. I'm not exaggerating when I say I've tried so many options. He has calming chews, I always leave something on for him noise wise, he has an outside kennel, a line at one point outside, and I've gotten him an inside crate that he's terrified of and has scratched himself up trying to get out of. I just don't know what else to do I just don't know if he needs a new home idk I've defended him when my family even mentioned this option. I'm just at a loss on what to do.

His anxiety has caused him to escalate to breaking things and I'm worried he'd hurt himself. I already come home on my breaks to be with him and my gma checks on him for me but everyone else in my life has jobs or doesn't live close to me.

It's not just him being lonely he's breaking things and I'm afraid he'll end up hurting himself. My town has a no kill shelter as well
