My friend who has 3 dogs of her own asked me to bring my new puppy to her place from the airport so she could help me out (as this is my first dog). So I spent the night there. Then I had to take my puppy to the vet and she was hospitalized overnight. My friend kept requesting that I bring my little dog to her house so she could spent the week there and take her meds and eat when I am at work. I think a made a huge mistake now because my puppy doesn't realize I am her Mother. I am going to take her home on Wednesday night to my place but I think unfortunately my puppy has been bonding with my friend. I HATE this because as grateful as I am to my friend for doing this I am VERY upset because my puppy looks for my friend constantly when she leaves the room. Even when I am holding her she wants my friend. My friend says the puppy knows I am her Mom because I come home every night but I don't think this is true. I was the one who picked her up from the airport, took her to the vet, picked up from vet and have been driving her around. Also I don't think it is good that when my friend watches her all day (she stays at home) she constantly picks her up or leaves her in the room with her. She is building up expectations for my puppy that I can't possibly fulfill because I will be at work during the day and only see my puppy after and before work. I don't feel like my puppy will bond with me or even like me when I take her home. Please don't think that I am ungrateful to my friend but I can't help but feel like my friend has fallen in love with my puppy and is sabotaging my relationship with her. This isn't supposed to be this way. Please help I don't know how to create a bond with my new puppy now that has mistakenly bonded with the wrong person. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Now that's room service!
