Probably not a good idea to have gotten a puppy if your mom wasn’t ready for the mess. Puppies tend to do that. But as for a dogs feelings when they are attached to their owners; that can be just as bad as a human being home sick or missing someone. I’m sure the dog will be happy and become very attached to its new owners.

They feel about the same way that we do if we were separated from the ones we love. We adapt, so do dogs.
It will be a sad time for your puppy, but hopefully it will be connected with a loving family that won’t hatefully throw it away simply because it isn’t housebroken….

Sounds like the dog is still very young if not potty trained yet, so I would say it will be harder on you than the dog. It’s not easy on the dog but in 3-5 days it should come around to its new surroundings. Different breeds act differently as well.. for example doberman pinchers are one person/ family dogs, even at young ages they have a hard time adapting to new surroundings. A dog like a lab or retriever is more than likely to be happy where ever the food is coming from.. mind you this is at young ages.. if you take a 6 month old dog and give it away its going to have a hard time adjusting .

Puppies and adult dogs are different then humans, they learn to fit in anywhere, just like when you got your puppy he adjusted very well, so he will adjust just fine. Think of it this way, If you would have kept him your mom would not be happy and this would not be good for the puppy, But bye you giving him up, you have made this puppy very happy, and he will be able to have a wonderful life with his new family. He will be happier there. But if you wait until you have your own house and you make the rules then you can enjoy a puppy and you will both be very happy.
Remember you did a good thing by letting him go. He is happy. so be happy for him.

Puppies, like toddlers, are a lot to handle. Just to potty train on of our pups we had to set an alarm to take him out every three- four hours. Since she’s still a puppy it won’t be as hard on her. I know this is a hard time for you and you’re worried about her. But she will be alright. Usually dogs can adapt pretty quickly to new homes. Shelter dogs do it every day. It might take her some time, but she’ll bond with them too. It’s mostly dogs that have been with the same family or person for a couple of years that suffer the worst from a broken heart. And in all honesty, they can die from it. I’ve seen it happen. But with yours being a puppy she will be just fine. Best thing for you to do is realize that apparently everyone in your home wasn’t ready for a new puppy and this is probably the best thing that you could have done for her. Don’t be too upset. It’ll all be alright. Just feel good in knowing that you made sure she has a good home to live out her life and be happy. You should be proud of yourself.

she will get use to her new home and soon forget you sorry to say but its kinda like when you take them from their doggy mom when they have been with you for so long or in this case the new owner they soon forget their last owners with older dogs im sure it would take longer
