Yes, I could reach out in a cold.. um I mean calm nonjudgemental way, but for now I'll let it be. He's almost 18, so it's not like a little kid that needs my protection, and me saying something now (no matter how nice/nonjudgemental way) would probably just escalate the tension. So I'll wait until it's closer to the earliest when I could take the dogs at the end of next month. I wouldn't split the dogs up, they love each other (the Chihuahua actually sleeps on top of the bigger dog), so I will either take both or leave them there if they can figure it out.
Anyway, I'm heading out in a couple of hours for a weekend of kayak fishing and camping in the mountains, so i'll see you all next week.
