里昂，我的治疗犬

我和狗一起长大。我爱死他们了。但我过去7、8年的生活方式不允许我养宠物。鱼是我唯一能拥有的东西，但我不得不一直买鱼，因为它们会死在我身上。狗给人带来平静和安慰。和我一起住的那户人家在夏初开始讨论养一条狗。我对此非常兴奋。我们去了收容所，带回了一只漂亮的黑白拉布拉多和比特犬。它几乎成了我的狗，因为我是它最常待的人。他晚上睡在我的房间里，白天跟着我在房子里转来转去，总想和我一起开车去兜风。 He brings me joy that I haven't had in a while. I was informed earlier today that they are thinking about getting rid of Leon. With 2 young children in the house and a very playful and rambunctious puppy in the house, it can wear you out. And that is with normal sleeping patterns. So the parents are seriously considering finding him a new home. I think my heart about ripped apart when I heard that. I understand their concern for their children, but I guess I don't see all the "bad things" that can happen with him. So what's going to happen if they get rid of Leon? I won't have anyone to go on evening walks with just so I don't have to remain in my room. I won't have a 50 pound dog jump up on my bed and wake me up licking my face. The animal that has brought me more joy over the past few months is about to be taken away from me. I don't know what's going to happen...if I had the money I'd move out where I could have him for my own. On the plus side, I'm grieving a potential loss before it has actually occurred. This is a miracle from God since I don't grieve things.
