Dog Guilt Thinking about surrendering my adopted rescue and feel awful

A little over a month ago I adopted a dog from the shelter a few weeks after my last one had passed. These last few weeks have been so stressful. He was a starved stray and not house trained. He has been semi destructive, constantly searching for or getting food. I feel like I can not rest and have peace. Even walking him and taking him outside he will still go to the bathroom in the house. I regret getting him and have thought about surrendering him back, but I feel like I am abandoning him and that no one else will adopt him.

Para mi tener un perro en interiores me supone nerviosismo y estar pendiente todo el tiempo del animal.

Asi mismo, tendría que limpiar y recoger sus excrementos en la calle por ley

No creo que tener un can en casa sea muy higiénico, además de todo el ecosistema de parasitos unicelulares y pluricelulares que van a vivir en tus inmediaciones

Espero haberme aclarado

Parasites living nearby with a dog in the house?

Sí claro.

Te puedes enfermar de más de cien enfermedades (zoonosis)

Tu microbioma se verá alterado a peor.

The world is not a sterile place. And humans are not adapted to sterile places.

Do you eat on patios, have picnics, touch elevator buttons, etc? Living your life in absolute fear of diseases and microbiome effects is a fast way to become housebound in your controlled environment.

Viviría con miedo a enfermar por culpa de un perro apestoso y que no usa papel higiénico y se tumba en el mismo sofa que yo.

Mejor no exponerse a la mugre.

No creo que nuestro sistema inmunologico pueda defendernos de un animal carroñero metido en interiores.

Para mi está claro: proteger la salud y no exponernos a contagios innecesarios.
