very sad

macy bit daniel in the face this week. he's ok, but it was a real bite, not a nip or a snap or anything. so, obviously she cannot live here anymore, but it's just not as easy as finding a new home for her.

i checked with the place we rescued her from, and she is going to get with her contacts and place an ad on Petfinder for us. i would love to be able to find someone myself for her, but i don't really know anyone. she is super sweet around adults, but unpredictable around small kids (and other dogs, although she is doing better with that).

i have been through all of the guilt of feeling like a bad mother for keeping an unpredictable dog around my son, and feeling like a bad person in general for taking in a rescue dog with that kind of history when we knew we'd have kids during her lifetime. it is all just very upsetting. daniel's face looks awful. macy is locked up in the kitchen. i don't know if she'll ever be able to be adopted since she bit someone. i'm so sad about the whole thing.

anyway. that's that. we have lots of visitors and have taken her to evansville with us, so i knew people would want to know what happened to her. i'll post on here what happens but i really don't want to talk about it otherwise. (unless you know someone who wants her. then i'll talk.)
