Farewell Molly

Well, our time as pet owners sadly had to come to an end today. Molly turned a bit aggressive with me last night and it not only scared me a bit but I began to think what would happen if she reacted that way with Cody. Come to find out Shih-tzu's are a bit stubborn and can get a bit mad/aggressive if you try to make them do something that they do not want to do. I was trying to get her to come out from under my bed and she did not want to come. She started growling at me and came at me to bite me when I tried to grab her collar. We went to take her back to the shelter and a family had walked up as we were waiting and were looking at her like they wanted to ask about her. We explained to them what happened and they said they were coming to look for a Shih-tzu and were very experienced with them. They didn't have any younger kids so we decided to let them take her instead of letting her go back into the shelter. Cody was very sad to hear that she had to go away, but he experienced the whole aggressive side to her with me last night and I tried to expain to him that I didn't want her to hurt him so he's trying to come to grips with the fact that she's gone. It all worked out for everyone I guess. She will be missed by Daniel and Cody.
