Missingmarley,
Thank you for taking the time to write and give your thoughts. You have been helpful. I am trying hard not to blame my husband. He loved Roxie too, just not as much as I did. All he can remember is how she looked as she bit him. I have better memories, because I was not bitten. I wish she had bitten me, because then I might have rethought the future. We will never know. I am trying to forgive myself first for giving up. Its not easy. I still cannot remove the traces of her living her from the house. I'm just not ready yet.

I wish I used this website more often when Roxie was alive. The outcome might have been different. My trainer was inadequate for the problem, and the books I read are not the same as expertise on this subject. I have learned a lot, but sadly so.
