Man vs. Dog

Man vs. Dog

PROBLEM: My husband is counting they days to force me to get rid of my son's dog!!!!!

Firstly let me set the stage .....
December 2000 I bought a AKC Doberman for Christmas for my son. My husband was insistant upon the breed and MY money funded the purchase .... which wasn't cheap.

We've been through a lot with this dog, whom we named Roxy. We even went through a severe SUV Rollover (8 or 9 rolls on the interstate @ appx 70 mph). After the wreck she got out of the vehichle. I was life-flighted to the best hospital near me and my boys and husband whose injuries weren't as life threatening as mine went to another. ROXY was gone! A passer by stopped and looked for her, but couldn't find her. Two days later the kind man stopped again on his way back home from his business trip and FOUND HER! He then drove her back towards us and tried to find a vet in the area which would take her since she was also injured. He drove in the opposite direction of his destination by ONE HOUR! A true samaratian!!!! He found a vet that would accept her and they cleaned her wounds. Unknowingly, they tracked us down by calling all the hospitals in the area. They had found us after four days! We had FOUR DAYS of asking ourselves how are we going to tell my son that his dog is gone and worse ... probably dead. When we got the call that she was safe I had unleased hours of tears of relief. Two days later we went to see her at the vet's office and 'approved' a surgery she needed to repair her wounds from the wreck. SHE IS VERY DEAR TO ME!

Several years have passed now and she has developed some kind of allergy that causes her to have a odor problem. After 24-48 hrs the odor comes back. I have taken her to the vet and they have her on steriods now which seems to slow the problem.

My husband has developed a 'hack' which I am associating with SMOKERS HACK and a residual cough from a bad cold! It was brought on by his YEARS of smoking. The hack has make him ultra sensitive to other smells, namely our dog. So this brings me to my problem.........

MAN VS DOG!

What should I do?
