she was crying, but trying to make sure that I didn't see. I knew she would miss the dog and I think it was sinking in.
Don't read too much into it. WAS's often express grief. LBS's often misinterpret it as regret but it usually isn't. Regret may come later, but not this soon. She knows she's putting you through misery and she's not happy about the whole thing herself, so that's what the crying is about. But she still feels like she's doing the right thing.
