This reads as really immature and selfish to me. You would ruin your entire financial life for a dog? How will that help the dog? You cannot feed it or pay its vet bills if you’re deeply in debt. Go to the poverty finance Reddit and ask how they get emergency help for poor people with animals. If you don’t qualify, you must rehome the dog. Find a bleeding-heart, no-kill shelter in another state. Create an Instagram account for the dog. Call 211 if you’re in Virginia. Whatever it takes. If you care for that dog, you will get it help or let it go. I know that’s hard to hear. I’m sorry you’re in this situation.

With your qualifications, you could teach. The job comes with benefits, including health care. Go read, “Tools for Teaching”, by Fred Jones. It was recommended to me years ago. It layers over other behavior management curricula really well. It will help you start your career on the right track. Even if you don’t ultimately stay with this job will help buy you time to figure out another solution. Always stick it out until June, though. You can’t leave kids in the lurch. If you’re not sure you can teach at all, try subbing this June. You’ll know.[/quote]
