Most of the crossable things I have are crossed for you @Foxy1 although it does make life just a wee bit complicated sometimes! Worth it if it helps you get the right result though.
Well, the saga continues. Another day of highs and lows. We got a call sayin that mi son has bin accepted for a flat, and should move in on October 2nd, which is perfect for us. Than I got a call from t'social services sayin that mi grandson can't be released to us whilst we've got t'bull dog. Cue more tears and frustration, after the high of this morning.
Bloody hell mate you’re having a reet battle with this Could your son not take the dog or another family member Perhaps a friend that you would trust the dog with Hope you get there mate
Fecking hell, you and your wife are on a hell of a rollercoaster. I can't imagine the emotional stress you both must be going through, and simply for wanting to do the right and best thing for all concerned. I really hope things work out for the best for you soon
What in the hell does a bull dog have to do with it? Call PETA and tell them the services hate animals.
Blimey @Foxy1 it get's more and more stressful for you both mate, you should have bit the social worker instead the trouble they cause, let the lad look after him for a wee while and then migrate back and forth when they come a visiting
Thanks gor your comments everybody. Unfortunately my sons not allowed pets in the flat he's having. He's as upset as we are.
Well, things are moving apace now. After last weeks bad news about t'dog, we've sorted t'situation now. He's going back to t'bloke we bought it off, as his wifes surgery has bin put back, until mi daughter gets a house. We also have a back up, if that dunt work out. Even better, we had him overnight Sunday. We fetched him Sunday mornin, and took him back Monday afternoon. It was fantastic, we absolutely loved it. We're hoping to have him 2 nighrts next weekend, Sunday 'til Tuesday. Best birthday present I could hope for, to wake up wi mi Grandson!! Also, we've got mi son a flat, and he gets keys on October 2nd, which is t'day after t'court day. Perfect!!! So, all in all, we're in a good place at this present moment. Just waitin for t'kick int ballax again now...............
Brilliant news mate Hang in there mate and I’m sure it’ll all work out for you guys in the end Good luck
Well....................... He's here!!!!!!! Couldn't let you know any earlier, as mi phone went tits up Thursday, and I was off work Friday, helpin mi son move into his flat. We've bin granted custody, albeit after an 8 week supervision order, to make sure we're meeting all their demands and criteria. Social services brought him today, and our lass and me have just signed all t'paper work. A huge thank you to everyone who's commented, had us in their thoughts and prayers, and generally raised our spirits when things looked iffy.
No matter how you are feeling this forum has the ability to lift your spirits to new heights. Thank you Foxy1 for the update and its great news. May you and Mrs Foxy1 enjoy the rest of your life with your grandson. Alfie
Brilliant news for you , your lass and the little fella , absolutely chuffed for you mate , cheered us up no end hearing that!
