EDIT: sorry i meant from on the title, not for 😅.

Hey everyone, I just wanted to share my story, because i remember when my dog was a puppy i was the most depressed ive ever been. And It helped me a lot to read puppy blues stories.

I have a samoyed right now, she is 2 years old and now shes a great companion but i will NEVER forget my severe puppy blues. Prob the most dramatic story youll ever read tho

I didnt eat, I stopped exercising, getting bad grades, didnt sleep ( i was in high school, yeah stupid i know.). I think i cried like 5 times a day and had a major breakdown in front of the family twice.

I regretted everything and i wanted to give her back but it just feels like a dumb thing to do. I fight with my parents too, because my pup was stressing me out so bad and i turned into a huge asshole whos also a crybaby. I knoww that my case is very dramatic tho, most people cases prob isnt like this and im glad. I picked up my pup when she was exactly 8 weeks old, and this intense puppy blues lasted about a month i think. Also she bit me a hell lot, its been two years and i still have some scars. I bled a lot when she was a pup.

So when she was 2-3 months old, it was the worst. On month 4-8 i honestly feel nothing towards her.. I didnt hate her, i didnt regret her, but i didnt love her. Mostly shes just there, i just took her for walks and feed her. She wasnt neglected but i only did the bare minimum. Not sure why i didnt love her. But by around 10 months, i suddenly started to love her. At around that time, She got clingy around me and started to follow me everywhere. Maybe this is why. I was probably a shit person for this, but if youre like this too and you feel like you’re the worst pup parent right now, you’re not alone man.

Its really really hard raising a puppy especially when youre alone, it doesnt feel like a fullfiling relationship at all. But what helped me thru it was thinking about how good it will be when she grows up to be a dog. The training and schedule also helps, and dog daycare helps too if you have the money. If youre thinking about returning your pup right now, honestly dont do it (yet). Just wait maybe for at least another month. Once your pup grows up, it will be the best thing ever, You can go to dog cafes, beaches, and have a walking buddy everyday. Also a lifelong best friend. I never thought i would love my dog so much tbh. Keep going puppy parents, I know you can do this 🐶!!
