Hi friends. Just adopted the sweetest 3 month old hound a few days ago. I've been looking forward to having my own dog for years, and while I admit it was a bit of an impulse decision, I was thrilled when I got to bring him home. Three days in, though, and I'm in the middle of a massive panic attack. I keep thinking to myself "what did I do, what have I done?" It's like...I have this living thing that depends on me and I'm freaking out. Just the thought doing this routine again tomorrow has sent me into a tailspin. I don't understand why I have these feelings of regret and guilt because this is something I've wanted and thought about for a long time. I'm trying to tell myself it'll pass. Has anyone se experienced this? I didn't expect to have this emotional reaction at all and it's a bit terrifying. Any advice, anecdotes, or thoughts would be so appreciated.
