It sounds like you are in a terrible situation. I am really sorry to hear that you are being berated by your family. I was also berated by my family a long time ago. It leaves us so alone and feeling so hurt. I really wish I could take your pain away. When you feel this way you can come here and vent. You are a worthy human being and you do not deserve this. I would be very concerned about my dog, too.

I really hope things get better for you very soon.
