No you are not being nosey at all. I have just gotten alittle in over my head with my kids, their dance classes, school functions, terrible twos, my work, school, oh the list goes on and Duke is suffering from it. No longer do I have time for walks and rarely for play time. He is the type that really needs alot of love and attention and he needs and deserves more than this. We are by no means finding him a new home just because we are tired of him or any of that, he is too amazing for that. There is not another dog like him out there. He is the most loving and loyal dog you can find and I can no longer be selfish and keep him under these conditions. It is killing me to do this, but I know it is best.
