    Looking for that Perfect Dog?

     ">

    Too bad, I already adopted him!

    I found this little guy a few weeks ago on Petfinder. Thinking I was just missing my Kobi I tried to ignore my impulse to send off an email. I spent the next 2 weeks checking back again and again. Then I decided I would at least start filling out the adoption form. That took days! I let the form sit on my computer for another week. Finally, I couldn't stand it any longer and I decided to just go for it. I needed a dog and he needed a Mom!

    DH and I went this morning to meet Buddy. OMG! He is amazing. The foster Mom said as far as she was concerned "it was a match made in heaven!" The only pull I have in heaven is Kobi, so I'll take that as a sign he approves! It looks like I get to bring him home next Saturday.

    He is an Aussie mix, less than 2 yrs, rescued from a kill shelter in Ohio.

    I thinks it's a perfect match too!  He looks exactly like the type of dog I'd envision you to have. 

    Best wishes with everything!!

    Hey -- whaddya mean --- Foxy the Mostlie Sheltie and Spirit Dogs' Dancer??? They're up there too and the three of them are chasing everbuddy around in celebration of a new herder at your house.  I mean ... there are just some of us who NEED a herder in our lives, ya no???

    Foxy and Dancer would tell ya they gots LOTS of "pull" -- well -- er ... push ... or nudge ... or circle it closer and cut'em'off!!!  I mean -- "pull" kinda all depends on who's telling the story huh???? *grin*

    And all the angels said 'Phew -- now Kobi can quit worrying and start keeping Dancer and Foxy BUSY too!!!  I have visions of herders trying to herd "clouds" sometimes!!!  (Gives a whole new meaning to the Judy Collins song, eh??? *grin*  "I've looked at clouds from BOTH sides now ... ")
