Had to leave the puppy behind

Tweet

Before we left SA, my family and my bro (who lives w us) got a new puppy. He was the most beautiful thing in the world and we loved him to bits, esp my toddler. But then we moved to the USA and the hard decision was whether to leave him behind with my bro who's really his "daddy" and loves him to bits and takes excellent care of him, or bring him with us, have him go through quarantine for 3-6 months and then have him confined to a tiny 2 bedroom apartment with no room to romp and play. (He's a boxer, so needs a lot of room). So we made the decision to leave him behind for his own sake, but everytime we receive pics of him or hear stories about how he's grown and is so cute and intelligent, it makes our hearts sore cos we miss him so. We thought of getting another dog, but still it wouldn't be fair to have one while living in an apartment. We miss Simba so much tho that sometimes we get a little homesick for him.
