[quote=Anonymous]I understand your predicament, OP and it sounds like you are venting here.  Two 85 lbs. dogs is a LOT in addition to having two small children.  BUT, you have them and you are responsible for them.  Pls. do not take them to the pound because nobody will adopt them at their age and in their healthy condition.  And it would be extremely sad for them to be separated at this point in their lives.  Just try to do the best that you can for them.  I know, it is hard and there may come a time in their lives when y ou may have to consider euthanizing them (especially if they are in intolerable pain etc.).  But, as long as they seem happy, just do what you can for them.  They are happiest in the home that they know.

I am a working mom with two small children and two dogs (12 yrs old and 6 yrs. old).  My DH is deployed overseas and we do not have any family here, so I totally understand that you are overwhelmed.  I'm right there with you, but I love my dogs a lot and I would not give them away.  The 12 years old also has hip dysplasia and he is on pain meds and also a daily eye treatment.  The younger one is still fairly healthy.  They are good dogs, not perfect, but good and loving and they love being with us.  It totally sucks having to walk them twice a day and clean up after their shedded hair etc.  But they are part of our family and once DH is back, it'll be easier again.  Until then, I just deal.

Hang' in there![/quote]
