The Jebber Family Blog

I haven't posted in awhile because our lives have been so turned upside down, and my mood hasn't allowed for much conversation. For those of you who read my blog, you know I have had a pretty crappy month. Not many things have been going our way and I try and try to find the positives for each situation. Well our luck hasn't changed as of yet. On Saturday night Bailey nipped Connor and made his lip bleed. That was it for us, we just cannot have that threat in our
home. Needless to say I am devastated. Bailey has been my baby boy for almost 8 years. He has been the greatest dog I have ever owned. He is the smartest, most well behaved dog ever. He lives to snuggle and love on everyone. Just not a 17 month old kid who likes to chase him and jump on his back unexpectedly. Bailey has broken my heart and I am just so sad. Our family is going to seem so incomplete without him here. I think that Bailey may go to live with Marsha, which will be good under the circumstances. She loves dogs just as much as we do, and we will get to spend Christmas with him and I can still make him his birthday cakes and give him his gifts and see him whenever I want. I just will miss him desperately. The really sad part is how much Connor loves the dogs. He loves hugging them and petting them and barking with them. I cannot imagine Connor growing up without dogs. Max is staying for now, we're not sure if he is a threat or if he just tries to scare Connor when Connor lunges at him. If any of you have gone through something like this before we really need advice on how to make this transition with Bailey.
