Just be ready though, to try and stop (I couldn't) your 'Bagel'...from trying to sleep between your legs every night. |
The new King of the house should be with us before NOTHING but Saturday. Could be tomorrow. The pups in your picture are pretty close to the size and color of our New King. They really are fine animal's and the heartache of a loss kept me from getting the one who just passed for about 10 years.
I totally respect immensely the decision to not go thru the pain again, I can dig it. I was thinking the same way. I had a friend tell me one day what a waste it was for somebody who loves them the way we do to not take a chance. I thought about it and planted the seed for my wife to see it the way I did. It took more than 6 months and it was a go then a no go and back and forth several times.
It's because it was meant to be that this dog was meant to be with us. Someone let him out of their car and drove away. This is not possible in my little world. Must be a really desperate person who did this. I had a German Sheppard or a CFRANE dog in mind, not something so little.
Anyway, I went today for visitation and the entire section of CellBlock 8 was howling to beat the band until Eight saw his new Daddy and not one peep outta him the rest of the time I was with him. The others didn't stop with the sideshow!
Man I'm so happy now I have no words for this feeling, maybe this is pure JOY, I dunno. NOTHING could be Betterererer!
I'm gonna go get Eight a new Posturpedic bed and a Baby Carriage and teach him how to save chairs at the square, NOT!
Just the bed! EIGHT
