STP, I know it sounds hard, but I think that is the best option. She will get the best treatment and she will be back with your family in no time.

She won’t harbor any bad feelings! And she will at least see her litter mate so it’s like a little reunion. There’s plenty of bonding time to be had. I’m glad the breeder stepped in given the lack of veterinarians. Hopefully it will be a short stay for her. She is adorable btw!

All the vets are so overworked in my area; they're distraught they're not able to provide the timely care so many of us were used to pre-COVID. Even the e-vets have huge scheduling issues.
That constraint absolutely played into some hard decisions I made recently, and my practice went above and beyond to get me in same day when I called regarding my ailing senior kitty.
ETA - it's vet tech week. Talk about too often unsung heroes.

Thinking of you and that little adorable Bagel. I hope she recovers quickly and is back with your family ASAP.

That sounds like a great plan to me STP. She's going to be well cared for and be back with y'all soon. ❤️

She's going back to someone she knows, where she can get care she needs. There are only right things about that. Sounds like the breeder is being ethical and responsible, too, which is good to hear.

sudsy has some questions that I'm getting answered from the vet contact there, and then we will take next steps.

Man, I'm so sorry to hear she's sick. You're doing the right thing, and I'd do the same for my own pups. I hope she is on the mend soon.

I’m helicopter parenting a dog that isn’t even mine. And likely adding to the stress.

STP She’s going to people that she knows who already cared for her, she’s going to get great care, and then she’s going to learn that you come back. These are all good things. It’s going to be much harder on you and your family than this is going to be on Bagel.

STP I’m late weighing in because I was nervous to open the post. I think the plan with the breeder is the best plan. They are the experts. Let them do what they do. I’m sorry you are going through this and am sending you and your family all the best wishes.

DH just left with her and I broke down. I need to get it together so I can get the kids with a smile so they don’t freak out.
Thank you all for being so kind. I’ve really leaned on you for dog support this past year plus. I know it’s a lot.
I’m a snarky bitch, but pups are my tender point.
I’ll let you know when I have updates.

STP go somewhere you can be by yourself for a moment (like tell your kids you need a shower or something) and let yourself cry for a moment. Seriously. You have a lot of emotions to process and that’s okay.

Hugs, STP. This is an emotional rollercoaster and you're entitled to have some time and space to get your emotions out.

I’m so sorry you’re going through this with your pup. She’s a beautiful girl. You’re making the best choice for her care. It’s the most loving thing you can do for her. She loves you guys already and will be so thrilled when she comes home to see you all again. No bad feelings.
I hope you can relax a bit tonight and get some rest after all this emotional wringer.

Also when I read the title I thought it was like the name of a breed like golden doodle and I really had many thinks to think about what two breeds make up a bagel. that's typically a basset-beagle mix. Not as cute as Bagel The Dog.
