I have a 5yr old dog named "Justice" that I found on the side of the road when he was a puppy. I was recently forced to move quickly because of an abusive relationship, and my daughter and I are now living with my mom and step-dad. They have dogs already and I cannot keep him with me. I have been working very hard with a local rescue to find him a new home. Meanwhile, he is staying with a friend of a friend. We go to visit him everyday, and he seems scared and confused. My daughter (shes 4) and I both love and miss him so much, we usually both cry when we have to leave him behind. I got a call today from the rescue today, they found him a new home. The people have been screened, and had a home visit, they were approved. Im supposed to drop him off within the next couple of days. How do I explain this to my daughter? How do I tell her she has to say goodbye to him forever? How do I prepare him? How do I say goodbye myself when Im already crying? What should I do?
