Adoption Pending...

I'm so excited! This (camera phone picture - sorry about the quality) is likely to be the new addition to our family! He's from Golden Beginnings and he's about 18 months old. He's a big boy, weighing 60 pounds now but needing some meat on his bones, so he'll probably need another 10-15 to be good and healthy. He's also a rowdy doggie, so we'll be working on obedience and walking on a lead. Actually, I hope he runs on a lead. Running would be a great way to burn off some of that extra energy! We are just waiting for his final heartworm check on Wednesday before we bring him home.

On the list of things to do until then: buy a new crate, buy new dog bowls, buy a new collar, make an appointment with my vet for a wellness check, buy new dog food, buy plenty of toys....

Congratulations and thank you Lisa!

And thank you for encouraging people to go to area shelters or rescues to adopt. There are hundreds of nice dogs (and cats) just as nice as this boy in our shelters and at rescues waiting to be adopted.

Yahoo!!!! You got him!!!!! I am just so happy for you. He is a beautiful, lean, big boy with a shiny coat and sparkling white teeth! Jim Burwell at Rover Oaks is one of the best trainers around and I would recommend him highly. He also has doggy day camp and boarding should you need it. Congratulations!!!! I am so excited and can't wait to see you and the big boy at the track!!!

Congratulations Lisa! as Gandhi says, "Be the change you want to see in the world." You are, indeed, that change. One thing I know for sure, your spirit, love, and kindness will be the bond you will have together for life. Happy running,Connie
