So my husband called me a few days ago and told me the housing we were getting on base would only allow one dog under 35 lbs. Because he's still just E3 (he just got out of MOS school) in order for them to reimburse any of the move I had to be there within 30 days of him arriving at his new post. This was unexpected and was not going to allow us time to find a rental off base. I thought I was going to have to leave Whiskey behind.

It was going to be hard but it would have worked out. A DT member from the area had stepped up and offered to keep him for me until I could get appropriate housing and then she would ship him to me. I can't express my thanks and gratitude to this community as a whole for coming together and for educating and helping one another. However, I got the news today that we have been approved for housing that accepts 2 dogs and no weight limit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A big shout out to MeganUK who was going to open her heart and home to my boy. I'll never forget that kindness and I do hope we can keep in touch.

Thanks Megan and thanks DT!

You have no idea... I was sobbing so hard I could barely get words out. Just pure relief. I thought I was going to have to leave my heart here in KY. Now I love my husband..... but dang that was going to be a hard choice! lol

Glad things worked out for you. I've never heard of a weight restriction for Pendleton housing. They do not allow pits or rotties. The folks that had them had to go through Good Canine Citizenship class.

I hadn't either. It depends on the housing you get apparently.

Such good news! I'm so glad you get to take him with you. I can't imagine having to leave him...

HAHA! I'm sure I wouldn't have hated having that cute li'l guy around...he's so sweet! But it broke my heart that you could have possibly had to be apart from him for awhile. I'd be happy to help you post again if you need it!
