College/Pets/Depression/Helplessness

I'm very sad right now. I just got a phone call from my mom. She can't take Dakota's antics and behavior anymore. She wants to get rid of him. I can understand. I left him there and they have to deal with him. I wouldn't have done so. Not if I had my own place...but I don't. I'm absolutely helpless at the moment. He apparently took her lunch box and several food items off the counter while she was at work and ripped/ate them. He then jumped on my bed and chewed off the corner to the crate that my mom put up there to KEEP him off the bed. She was REALLY angry.*sigh*
I contacted the Austin German Shepherd Rescue Organization via email. Hopefully they'll respond. I refuse to send him to an animal shelter. He still needs physical therapy and I don't want him going to just anyone. I don't want him back out on the streets. If this organization accepts him they'll find him a nice home. The problem is I don't know if they will. He's only part German Shepherd. I'll know in a few days.

I feel like crying...

And now again

I've found myself
So far down, away from the sun

That shines into the darkest place
I'm so far down, away from the sun
That shines to light the way for me

To find my way back into the arms
That care about the ones like me
I'm so far down, away from the sun again...
