OK. I love the pumped on coffee bit. I know what you are talking about - I did a fourteen hour round trip one time jacked on Starbucks iced coffee. That was a blast! We have only one car presently or I'd drive to MO or something. My mentor lives there and would probably put me up. Unfortunately Patrick kinda needs the car to drive to work. Geez, where ARE his priorities? [8|]
The deal is, all my friends who could help with transport are basically on the east coast. So north or south doesn't matter. I live near the border of NC and VA so I'm smack dab in the middle of where he'd come, no matter whether he came north or south. There's a sheepdog trial about an hour from me where I could pick him up, and participants will be coming from all over for that - just not west of the Mississippi. [

I'm very excited about Gus - he's a cousin of my old Jen dog and the son of a terrific dog my mentor just retired. He's just got this little problem that's not his fault - I can't wait to give him the home he deserves - and Patrick the dog HE deserves!
