I finally got my dream dog but I gave her back just 72 hours later, I knew as soon as I got her home something was wrong

A PET owner has confessed she needed to give back her new puppy just 72 hours after bringing her home.

The pet lover said she was devastated after handing the dog back but wanted to share awareness on an important issue.

Tez shared her story in a YouTube video online.

She said: "I just wanted to share this because I feel like lots of people have to do this sometimes but no one really talks about it."

After leaving home Tez thought it was a perfect opportunity to become a dog mum.

She said: "I've always wanted a dog growing up and when I moved out I thought why not get a dog?"

"It seemed like the perfect opportunity and I'm spending a lot of time at home because I'm quite antisocial and I've not been going out a lot so I thought why not get a dog so I can have one and bond with it," Tez said.

Tez said she fell in love with the pup who was a Cavalier King Charles and Poodle mix.

She said: "I went to this registered breeder and saw the puppy, and fell in love with it."

The new pet owner was first initially concerned as her new pup started eating grass in her garden.

She said: "So I took her out in my garden and there's a lot of grass in a lot of plants do puppies eat grass and plants and all the things that they've never seen before."

"So she ate a bit and then I got scared because obviously I'm a new puppy mum and I didn't really know so I was worried," she added.

After noticing her pup wasn't eating properly Tez took her dog to the vets.

"So I took her to the vets and when I got to the vets they said she was fine her belly was a bit swollen I guess she'd eaten grass but they said she's not dehydrated her belly felt full so she's not hungry so just monitor and see how it happens."

But it wasn't until the third night that Tez noticed she might be the problem after inviting the dog into her bed.

She said: "I put her in the bed with me and then during the night I woke up and I couldn't breathe properly. I'm allergic to cats and I am allergic to dogs sometimes."

Tez had hoped that her dog was hypoallergenic because of her dogs breed mix but that wasn't the case.

In the end Tez decided to give the dog back because of her reaction.

She said: "Then the next day I just thought I have to give it back because it's not really fair on her or me because now I didn't want to pick her up because I was scared that I would be allergic to her. But then she's a puppy and she just wants lots of love and she wants cuddles and detention."
