Good bye Jasper :(

I am so sad right now. I have a puppy named Jasper. With me moving I, unfortunately, can't take him with me. The city of Orem, UT only allows 2 dogs per household. My aunt and uncle already have 2 dogs, so I can't bring Jasper. If I didn't believe that this was such a good move for me, spiritually and temporally, I would not be going for this reason. It hurts so much to have to get rid of him. I only got 6 months to know this puppy, and yet, he has been such a joy to me. I got frustrated, irritated, mad, etc. at him, multiple times, but he's a puppy and would do puppy things. But his personality is so funny, so loving, so loyal. He is my guy, my friend. He sleeps with me and keeps me company when I'm alone. I'm heartbroken that I have to do this. He is such a happy puppy. I don't want to do this, and yet, I know that this is a good move for me. I know that it is a small, inconsequential thing, but I could use your prayers right now. Not just for me, but for my puppy. I think I may have found him a good home. It's an older, retired gentleman, who is used to Cocker Spaniels (Jasper's breed). He will have the time to give him the time, love, and attention that I couldn't really give him. I think that that is part of my problem, I didn't give him to much time. Mine was tied up in school and homework. Even though...I have loved the time that I have had with Jasper. Well, just keep us in your prayers. I love you all!
