My boyfriend of 5 years and I have decided to part ways and we have about 2 months before that will happen. We have lived together for nearly 3 of those years with our two dogs (and recently, a rabbit). My concern is how to prepare the dogs for the split. His dog will be going with him and mine will stay with me. And while each dog favours their respective owner, there is still a very strong attachment toward both of us from both the dogs.
Given the circumstances, I believe that we are handling this well and on good terms. I suspect we will continue to be great friends afterward, but I do not want my dog to handle the transistion poorly. In the past, she has handled stress rather poorly andaside from myself, I would call him her favorite human.Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I'm not too worried about the rabbit as he is pretty fearless and a total "mama's boy" at the same time.
