A Hard Decision

I had to make a very tough decision this past week. Due to my upcoming retirement from the military and the additional hours I have to spend in college classes re-training, I am now required to be away from home Mon-Fri. I had to come to the conclusion that in the best interest of my pets that I needed to re-home them until such a time that my career and living situation becomes stable enough to allow me to keep pets again. I want to say special thanks to Frankie from Fat Boys Ball Pythons for taking the snakes and for having the patience to wait for me when I got lost on the way to the meeting point, and special thanks to one of my friends for adopting Crack, my Jack Russell. Sunday was a hard day for me because I kept walking in to my reptile room to check on snakes that were not there and Sunday night the foot of my bed was empty. I have already decided that once I get re-established I will return the favor by adopting 1 BP or boa and 1 dog from a shelter. I will also continue to be active on the forums so that I can continue to expand my herp knowledge. Thank you to all those who have helped, answered questions, and offered advice so far...

Tough man. My heart goes out to you. Good luck. It'll work out.
From one Vet to another thanks for serving. :salute:

Yep, thanks for serving, and all the luck in your new career.

Been there, done that.
I had to give up my boas and dogs when I went to Vietnam, BUT
at least I got to see my new born baby daughter the day before I left.

Semper fi :salute:

Thank you for your sacrifice.

Ack, that would be so heartbreaking!!

Thank you for your service, though!
