A sad, sad tale

Russ and I have always wanted a dog.  We tried and failed with our first dog Charlie because of Camrie's Allergies, but decided to try again.  This time with a pure bred German Shepherd,  Mocha.  She was a BEAUTIFUL dog, and she was my dog!  Having a new puppy around the house was very difficult but I loved her.  After bringing her home I started having asthma problems, I was taking an inhaler once every hour and since I'm pregnant we decided that it unwise to keep her.   So, after many tearful days I finally decided to let her go.  A very nice couple came to pick her up and I was super emotional and SUPER embarrassed that I couldn't keep it together.  I really did love that silly dog.  

While uploading our pictures today I saw that Russ took a video of Mocha and I on our last day together, you can kinda tell that my eyes are swollen from crying.  Mocha was such a good dog, and I fell in love with her.  I am happy that she is with a good family and I am happy for the month that we had with her in our home!

Oh how sad...I know what it feels like to have to give up a pet- no fun!
Congrats on baby #2, that's so exciting. Are you guys hoping for a boy or girl?
