• 1:56
  SPEAKER_01: The polite pollution.
• 1:58

  SPEAKER_01: The smoke sneaked over the Canadian border easier than I could.
• 2:04
  SPEAKER_01: I love this.

  SPEAKER_00: It's like a poem.

  SPEAKER_01: You need to go and register on the Wink106 app, Twin Tears Magic, or My Radio Jams, and make sure sometimes you accidentally get logged out, just log back in.
• 2:14
  SPEAKER_01: Log back in, yeah.
• 2:15
  SPEAKER_01: Because the polite pollution is adorable.
• 2:17
  SPEAKER_00: That is very cute.
• 2:18
  SPEAKER_00: Okay, so I was telling you a few seconds ago, too, that um I I have this weird setup at the house right now that, you know, four of the puppies are all down at the vets.
• 2:28
  SPEAKER_00: They've been there for almost a week.
• 2:30
  SPEAKER_00: One of them, Petey's had some complications.
• 2:33
  SPEAKER_00: He's he's uh he's being very closely attended to.
• 2:36
  SPEAKER_00: And the other ones, it's just been a juggling act to get them fixed because they've had emergencies at the vet.
• 2:42
  SPEAKER_00: It's been a week, right?
• 2:43
  SPEAKER_00: Right.
• 2:43
  SPEAKER_00: And uh, and I did tell the girls yesterday, I said, Gideon, the littlest one, I said he's gonna give you the sad eyes and want to be held.
• 2:49
  SPEAKER_00: That's become Gideon for the biggest.
• 2:51
  SPEAKER_01: I bet you he's probably at the front like front desk where you check in.
• 2:54
  SPEAKER_01: That's what we thought.
• 2:55
  SPEAKER_01: And Gideon's sitting on all the laps.
• 2:57
  SPEAKER_01: Because at my vet, there's always a couple dogs just checking in.
• 3:01
  SPEAKER_00: You know, they're like they're in rough day at work.
• 3:05
  SPEAKER_00: But then you had a problem that happened, or I get I should say is happening for you in your house right now.
• 3:11
  SPEAKER_00: What is this?
• 3:12
  SPEAKER_02: Hey, so I'm feeling really awful right now.
• 3:17
  SPEAKER_02: And I honestly just need somebody to tell me if I did the right thing here.
• 3:23
  SPEAKER_02: Um so me and my husband fostered dogs for years, and after our own dog passed away last year, we ended up adopting one of our foster dogs.
• 3:35
  SPEAKER_02: He's this big Doberman named George, and we absolutely fell in love with him.
• 3:41
  SPEAKER_02: Um he came from a really bad situation, so we had a lot of like behavioral problems, but we were working through him.
• 3:49
  SPEAKER_02: But then life kind of changed overnight because I found out I'm pregnant with twins.
• 3:55
  SPEAKER_02: And during my pregnancy, George was still having these random moments where he'd get really aggressive, and we just couldn't ignore that anymore with two babies on the way.
• 4:08
  SPEAKER_02: So my husband and I talked about it over and over, and we finally agreed that the safest thing was to return him to the rescue we adopted him from.
• 4:18
  SPEAKER_02: So yeah, they took him back last week, and I've just been an absolute mess ever since.
• 4:26
  SPEAKER_02: Like all just randomly start crying because I feel like I failed him, and I'm sure the pregnancy hormones aren't helping either, but I just feel really bad.
• 4:39
  SPEAKER_02: I'm just really depressed that we had to do it, but I feel like there was no other choice.
• 4:45
  SPEAKER_02: You know, I keep reminding myself he went back to the rescue that knows him and can hopefully find the right home for him.
• 4:54
  SPEAKER_02: But I still feel guilty.
• 4:56
  SPEAKER_02: Like, I feel like I abandoned him, even though I know we had to think about our babies too.
• 5:04
  SPEAKER_02: So, yeah, I guess I just wanted to hear from anyone who had to make a decision like this and how you made peace with it.
• 5:11
  SPEAKER_02: Because I just feel like sad and drained right now.
• 5:17
  SPEAKER_01: Of course you feel guilty.
• 5:19
  SPEAKER_00: Would you say it's a time issue?
• 5:21
  SPEAKER_00: This is gonna have to be I mean, your your life is about to be occupied by twins, so your focus is gonna dramatically change.
• 5:27
  SPEAKER_01: Yes, I think that eventually, especially if you end up surrendering a dog and you keep somewhat of contact with the the SPCA, for instance, and then they're able to say, Oh, you know, now Duke or I can't remember what the dog's name is.
• 5:44
  SPEAKER_00: Duke's a great name.
• 5:45
  SPEAKER_01: Duke is now with a loving home.
• 5:48
  SPEAKER_01: Here's some pictures, or you get a little bit of update.
• 5:51
  SPEAKER_01: I think that's gonna make you feel better.
• 5:52
  SPEAKER_01: Maybe that's something that you can discuss with them.
• 5:54
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 5:55
  SPEAKER_01: But of course you're gonna feel guilty.
• 5:56
  SPEAKER_00: But you'd feel a lot more guilty though if you're Doberman.
• 6:00
  SPEAKER_00: And I hate to be like, you know, labeling a certain dog, but a Doberman, you know, they used to guard the concentration camps.
• 6:06
  SPEAKER_00: They're pretty uh they they've got an appearance about them, you know.
• 6:09
  SPEAKER_01: They're still family, but if your Doberman chewed your baby's face off, yeah, you'd feel a whole lot different guilt.
• 6:16
  SPEAKER_01: I had a college girlfriend that had to do the same thing.
• 6:19
  SPEAKER_01: It was as but hers was like right after the babies were born, the the dog just was feeling threatened.
• 6:25
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 6:26
  SPEAKER_01: And then and was and retaliating, unfortunately.
• 6:30
  SPEAKER_01: So yes, the guilt is there, but I think in the end you know you really are making the best decision.
• 6:35
  SPEAKER_01: I can't even imagine having to do it, but and yes, I would feel so guilty, but you you 1,000% are doing the or did the right thing.
• 6:43
  SPEAKER_00: So we'll go with time will heal the wound.
• 6:46
  SPEAKER_01: I think so.
• 6:47
  SPEAKER_01: I think you'll always have that little twinge, but then as you and that's why I I think that she should call the SPCA or whoever and ask them if she could at least get some updates sometimes.
• 6:58
  SPEAKER_00: She might.
• 6:58
  SPEAKER_00: It sounded like it was actually a rescue.
• 7:00
  SPEAKER_00: I don't know that it was SPCA, but wherever the rescue was, it sounds like it might be able to to you know set her at ease with that a little bit.
• 7:07
  SPEAKER_00: But I'm I'm gonna go with time and look at it this way way better than what could have happened.
• 7:13
  SPEAKER_01: Right.
• 7:13
  SPEAKER_01: And that's the thing.
• 7:14
  SPEAKER_01: You don't want it to you don't want to live with regret.
• 7:17
  SPEAKER_00: Oh, yeah, for your entire kid's life because their face might be gone.
• 7:21
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 7:21
  SPEAKER_00: Yes.
