I've been fighting my depression as hard as I can. One way by adopting a Rottweiler puppy and getting him as an ESA. Got a reference from a coworker that got his rottie puppy recently. I've encountered nothing but issues. Already paid the non refundable deposit.
First off, I've requested one with a tail (I don't want it docked). I can't find a local breeder that doesn't dock their tails anywhere even if I request it. I had to request that he didn't dock his tail specifically and I was charged more for it. I also had to pay it earlier than usual because he docks their tails at 3 days old and if he doesn't have the deposit he can't be sure I'll get the dog and then he'll be stuck trying to sell a rottie puppy with a tail that no one wants
First litter was was supposed to be mid March. Breeder never reached out to me to tell me that the dog was born. At this point I hadn't paid the deposit. My fault.
Next litter was supposed to be the end of April. This dog never gave birth. He said said he think she "absorbed the pups". Shame, but ok.
Litter after that was due May 1st-3rd. Puppies are born and he didn't tell, but I'm super excited cause he got me a boy and was gonna keep the tail. He goes MIA a bit. I'm texting him too much cause I'm excited and start buying stuff for my lil son. He tells me a couple of days ago that while he was out of town (for a couple of weeks???) the mom chewed on my dogs tail and he told me he had another one that just gave birth and he kept a tail on one of the boys cause some people want tails.
Now he just told me that the other mom rolled over on top of one of the girls, and my boy with the tail. He then told me there's another litter coming in June. I feel so low. He told me this the day before my birthday (which is notoriously cheeks too). I was only getting out of bed because of that dog some days, and not to sound dramatic, but inconveniences like this are way too common for me. I don't know what to do, I kind of want to go "what's the point". I want feel a mixture of emotions but overall I'm not surprised. Things often going south when I'm trying my best reminded me of why I'm suicidal in the first place.
