Getting a puppy is a massive life change! I think it’s very normal for people to get a dog and come to the realization that it is too much to take on for the moment. The real issue is when people do not take responsibility for making sure the dog finds a good home to go to. You are someone who has made sure that the dog is safe and happy and that is all that matters in the end. ❤
You did the right thing. You aren't a failure. It takes a special kind of strength to admit that you weren't the right place for Cooper at this point in time. You are lovely for caring so well for your puppy and yourself. Praying for comfort.Xx
I’m so sorry to hear you’ve been low Brad, I’m glad you’re coming up to a high now. He was an adorable puppy and you’re not a failure at all, you’re very strong for realising it was the wrong time and doing what was right for you both! Love you, hope you continue to feel better 💕
As someone who is currently raising a boxerlab mix, having a puppy is very overwhelming and a lot of responsibility. You are not a failure and having the strength to know "I can't give this dog the proper home it deserves" is so much better than anything.
You do not sound pathetic you're being too hard on yourself. I think you handled everything very maturely despite how low you were feeling. Hope you feel better soon
Oh Brad 😞 I'm so sorry for all you've gone through. You are not a failure at all and you definitely made the best decision to give the dog a happy life! When the time is right you'll get your 4 pawed friend ❤
I'm glad to hear you are on the up and up. Imho, you did what was best for you and the puppy. I and my husband rescued a puppy from a horrible owner (long story), we loved him but my husband, Vince fell ill and the puppy (lab-pit mix) got bigger and stronger. The short story version: After a year we had to give him up. Our vet just happened to be looking for a new dog. She took him in and as much as I cried, I knew that the dog finally found his forever home. Vince and I were just the middle point of getting him to a happy home. I still miss that dog.
I brought the wrong dog for me once. She needed so much attention so much exercise.
I had to find her a new home, but it was right for her.
And it killed me to have taken her on but not been able to give her the best life.
I get what you're feeling. And you did the responsible thing. And they will have a great life now.
I know its probably not the thing you want to hear BUT, cats can be easier for your routine and mental health situation. They are still a big responsibility but are way more independent as dogs. You'd have to put security nets on the windows but they are really great companies for busy routines. (Even better if you get 2, cause they keep each other company and all). ❤

Brad I’ve been a fan of yours for a while now and I just wanna say that what you did was the best thing you could do for that dog, and you should feel proud of yourself for knowing when to admit that it isn’t the time yet.
You’re not pathetic. Thank you for sharing this I thought I was the only one who felt it was hard to make friends as an adult.
First and foremost, sorry for my English, I'm from Spain. Now, I relate A LOT with you. I adopted a kitten like 5 years ago. Back then I had some friends here in the city I live, so it was easier to take care of her even though cats almost take care of themselves. Nowadays I am in the same situation as you are: all of my friends are nowhere near me and I also struggle making new friends. Sometimes although it's been 5 years I feel guilty because sometimes I can't get anyone to look after her when I have things to do, and she has to be alone for more time that I wanted.
My point with this is: DON'T feel like a failure, having a pet it's not always as cute, funny and amazing as social media want us to think. It takes a lot of compromise, caring and effort, and its OK to not be ready to take those steps, just because the circumstances you are in or whatever reason.
If you want one, believe me, the time will come, and one you get it, it will change your life and give you infinite love, no matter a dog or a cat.
So sending lot of courage to you Brad!
i’m so sorry you have been feeling this way, glad to hear you’re on your way up ❤️ you’re not a failure at all, everything has worked out for the best, and at least you’ve gain some experience from this and now know how to go about it when it happens next 🫶 sending hugs and love x
Super proud of you for making the tough decision to do what's best for the puppy and also yourself. You're not a failure in any way 🖤 I hope things get easier for you as the weeks go on
Literally exactly what I needed to hear. Been going through a lot of similar feelings and though it sucks, it’s great to know I’m not alone in the struggle.
Brad i almost never watch biopics but the way u talked abt priscilla intrigued me so i will!
I had to do the same thing- rehome a dog. I felt horrible in the beginning, I felt like a failure, but I know it was the right thing to do. You did the right thing. 💙
so sorry to hear about this situation brad its a difficult one, but you are not pathetic or a failure at ALL. you didn't fail the dog, and you didn't fail yourself, ultimately you did the right thing even though it was a tough choice, which is a part of having pets, and i think that shows a lot of strength. sometimes you're just juggling a lot of things at a certain moment, and it is completely understandable and normal to feel so impacted by this. also if the main issue is high maintenance i will say that cats tend to be easier in my experience but obviously thats a personal choice too and you should wait until you feel ready, however that is, either way. go easy on yourself, and im glad you're feeling better now!!
hi brad! first of all i am so sorry about what happened and i really hope you do feel better with time. i just wanted to say that you’re quite the opposite of a failure, and i know that people saying it to you won’t make that much of a difference cause you have to believe it first, but honestly i really think that understanding the complexity of the situation and deciding to do what was best for both was a really mature, selfless and brave gesture. sending you a big hug, thank you for sharing this with us 💗
We don't think you're a failure Brad, you did your absolute best and you knew what was better for you and the dog considering the situation. The woman had no right to give you half truths about the dog's personnality even if he was adorable and kind because it's unjust to not be transparent about any part of it. Mental and physical health is so important and it's such a wise decision to make.
I’m sorry you’ve not been feeling at your best❤. I understand so much of where you are coming from, as I’ve felt with a lot of the same things in my life. I’m also a former dancer, danced in college and for a professional company for 5 years after graduating. My younger brother died and after that, and then suddenly the thing that was my whole life, and my escape, no longer served my mental health. I was lucky enough to be able to return to riding, and make a long time dream come true of having my own horse. Some of that I say to relay that ever since you inserted your first dance clip in one of your reactions, (are you training for the ballet Potter?) I have felt such a connection to you! And for what it’s worth, know you have a friend across the pond who’s rooting for you, and wishes you nothing but the best🩷
Sorry for your loss. Things happen for a reason, you were the conduit to get the dog to a loving family home and the dog gave you insight and reflection on your mental health. Love and hugs Brad ❣️ ...oh and I don't see you as a failure at all...I mean you're not Aqua Man 2 - in a previous episode you had the dream of missing people and you looked up the Meaning ..this see me to tie in well. chin up Petal !
Hope you’re doing okay now Brad! You did what was best for the puppy in the end and you found him a lovely home! And you’re not a failure Brad💚💚
sending you so much love❤️ i hope you’re doing better x
Brad, your feelings are totally valid about enjoying your own company, feeling loneliness etc. I think you are feeling what so many of us are feeling in our age group. I have been enjoying focusing on my career and stopped going out on nights out with my friends and I was feeling much better. I went to see the friends this weekend and it actually made me feel awful. Such shame for having not attended every recent event and comments that I don't make any effort anymore. Friends can be exhausting Brad, don't feel pressure to take on relationships just because people on social media make them seem so perfect.
P.S - I would be your friend but I live in Glasgow.
I’m loving these episodes! So relaxing and great fun ❤
P.S. Happy to hear you’re on the up 👏🏽
Thank you for your honesty. Just know you are not a failure, you are just human and give yourself credit for realizing what is best for you right now. ❤
I’m so sorry to hear this :(
Youre so amazing and you definitely did the right thing, I’m so happy to hear youre on the up now ❤️
morning brad!! (its 7pm)
So sorry brad that have had a rough time and i'm so happy that you are coming to a high now. You are so strong and I'm very proud of you for making this episode. I hope you continue to get better, take care 🩷
Thanks for sharing Brad, you're a real one. I think your thoughtfulness, insight, and willingness to rethink things, is all any of us can hope for when things don't go as planned.
Oh I'm so sorry Brad! So shitty that doctors don't tell you side effects, thats terrifying! And its not ridiculous at all, of course you love that baby (not in past tense bc you still do for sure) and you did what you could and thought was best for him, and that is love for sure 🩷
Hey Brad first of all you're not pathetic or stupid, or anything like that. You made the best choice for you and the pup. Mental health can be tricky sometimes, paired with physical things it's hard. You're doing great, even if it feels like you're not, you are. I'm glad to hear you're feeling better. Thanks for always making me smile. Keep working on you and be the best you, you can be. Hugs 🤗
I’m so sorry Brad! But you definitely made the right decision, I have wanted a pet as well since I am lonely and it would just put a bandaid on my depression. I have been working on getting better but it’s been over 6 months and I’m still low, hopefully one day I can get a dog and you too 😊 I feel you on the whole Uni thing, I also did not make any friends that live near me now (since I went to school hours away), and my best friends live far away so it stinks! But we can’t listen to others that say we must have tons of friends, we’ll be fine ❤
Oh Brad my love I’m sorry you’re feeling this way. You did the absolute best thing for the dog and that is the opposite of failure.
I agree 100% about your Priscilla and Elvis take. I prefer biopics that are less dramatized and overpolished as well
Sending you so much love and many hugs!
Why i never would date a dog owner is because their commitment to that pet. I dated someone once who had a dog. But it felt like I couldn’t get a lot of time and attention because of that pet. We couldn’t go out for extended periods because the dog had to be walked, given food and water, taken to the vet and nursed at home afterwards. All of these events that the dog had to be given first priority. And this was before dog hotels while away on trips didn’t yet exist. The partners lived out of State from family, so finding dog sitters was nearly impossible. After into the relationship, I decided it was best to end that relationship before getting deeper into that relationship and I feel that was my first mature relationship issue I ever made at 22 years old.
I have a kitten you can have her, she's lovely. A stray abandoned them in my home 😂 she will bring you peace and joy. In all seriousness cats are great friends for busy people
I'm sorry you've been hurting and that you had to make that decision with your dog. I think you made the best possible decision for the dog and yourself and now you know what kind of place you need to be in to be ready for a dog. I think you made the decision to give him the best life possible. Youre a good person, Brad, and i hope you feel better soon 💜
Brad, thank you for being brave and open enough to share your pup story. I really hope people are kind in commenting. An odd thought popped in my head. We as people can meet someone( sometimes the kindness of a stranger or a brief time shared with a co-worker, friend of a friend Etc) in that time I've found down the line a seed had been planted that is now coming to fruition OR they pointed me in a direction that was healthier or better in some way than where I was headed. You might have been that special person who was the intermediary to your little ones good life they are now living. Just a thought. We all go through season after season (I'm ehem a lil older than you) some fulfill our hearts true desires, others teach us about timing or some other thing about ourselves or others. You are funny, smart and handsome as hell. Love will come, a pup as well, should you still wish. Sorry this was so long, I hope it is helpful in even the smallest bit. Have a GOOD week.
Getting a young puppy and needing to be there all the time to train it is a very overwhelming situation to be in, especially when you live alone. I’ve never had a dog but have two cats and they’re so much easier to leave alone. I think especially in a flat environment too where they don’t need to go out that can be less mentally demanding for you. As hard as it is you definitely made the right decision for both of you and that shows how good of a person you are.
Oh my Goodness Brad, Sending you a Huge Hug! You’re not going to believe this but hearing about you and your Pup is Very close to what I’ve experienced. I totally understand all the emotions you’re speaking about because I had the exact same ones!
I don’t see how anyone could criticize how you handled the situation with the dog. You did the best you could even though you were struggling. It’s all anyone could ask for. Glad you’re feeling better❤
Brad. you singing "good morning" is my new alarm sound... like no joke.
Brad. I used to have a friend who, like you, purchased a dog (Basset hound) due to loneliness. He got all the signs that it was a bad choice early, but ignored them. A year later, the dog was neglected as he would go to work for 12 hours, got him thrown out of a house share because it was aggressive and destructive due to the lack of care it was getting, and at the end of the year his mum had to explain to him clearly how his errors had affected the life of a real living thing. Your dog is going to have a much better life than you or that troll before you could have provided. You saved the dogs life ❤
Sending love and hugs!!! 🤗 ❤

11:18 The closest thing to doing justice to Amy was the documentary by Asif Kapadia. I saw it recently and it was so good. Also, she’d hate someone doing a biopic. Also, you can smell the Oscar bait.
❤❤❤❤
I think you should consider moving closer to where your bff is especially if it gives an opportunity to make a friend group.
Ahhhh Bradley gurl this video took me a little while to finish because you know "life" but it's not nice seeing you so down...don't be so hard on yourself gurl dogs are massive responsibilities they're like having a child around or an extremely insecure and jealous bf...one of which you can give back if it's not your own and one that you can bin because that's not the T
Butch manly hugs, my guy...that's ALOT alot! But the only way "around" is THROUGH. So cheers for facing it all.
10:15 OMG I SAW THAT TOO! Felt slightly abrupt but I was there for the ride.
P.S. Apparently Lindsay Lohan might be working on the Ann-Margaret biopic
I think Priscila was very badly advertised. Everytime I got an ad for it, it was very hard to hear , to follow and there's no explanation of what it's about. People don't really know about it.
In my opinion you did the best that you could with the dog and I think it was very responsible of you to make that decision. You looked at yourself and your life and you were honest with yourself and ultimately you wanted what was best for everyone involved. Even if the happy ending didn’t involve you two together it can still be a happy ending❤️🩹❤️
Good morning ❤
Good morning, Brad. I always stay away from ***2 movies. The exception is Shrek 2.
You will get a dog one day hopefully it won't be too far off
29:51 that happened to Joanna cedia if you know her
If you're ever into watching Avatar, Avatar 2 is mostly underwater and it's insane visuals!!!
3:13 bebes have u seen avatar 2 the way of water??!
omg im the first to view!!!!
Brad, your comment about biopics is so dead on and I don’t watch them either. It would have to be something related to a serious historical nature that, even then, you can only count on just pieces of it to be correct. And you can only know those parts are close to correct when several writer have the same conclusion.
And I wanted to comment on Amy Winehouse. When people are struggling with addiction, it’s not always about the drugs and alcohol that pulls a person into that crazy state. I too hate that people are still making money or trying to get rich off of that person. She was only 25 when she died, and definitely one of the greatest artists of all time. But you struck a cord when you said she struggled with her fame. That seems very likely to me. Because we know Michael Jackson did as well. But, I think later in life, Michael got caught up in trying to top whatever he did last and went overboard. If he needed that much pain medication just to go on stage, then why not quit, and say to himself, I’ve done all that I can do. It’s not so easy. Artist of every style of artistry struggles with this. That need to be remembered and added to history books is part of the addiction, and I believe it’s where it starts for, not all, but many people.
Biopics can never dive into a dead person’s psyche and get the real story of what drove a person to that point in their life. So why waste time watching an untrue story. Why spend, excuse me, invest, that’s the word we’re looking for of course. They invest, just like the Stock Market, looking for huge returns on that cash. And as far as I’m concerned, any and all profits should go to the family or Estate. Not money grubbing con artist, like Donald Trump.
