courtnek Posted June 3, 2003 Author Share Posted June 3, 2003 The foster mom called last night, mostly to check me out - wanted to know if I had a yard, how big, did I realize this dog was raised in a pack environment, would I be willing to come home and let him out, did I realize that they roam and I need to watch the doors??? I just busted out laughing!! I have to guard the doors so Freebee cant escape, I am used to coming home to let the dog out when necessary, yes, I have a yard, yes, Freebee escapes whenever possible, even though she has been trained (repeatedly!!!) for recall....I told her when the pizza guy comes I put up baby gates to keep Freebee away from the doors...she asked, why, will she bite? and I answered "only the pizza....." By the end of the conversation we were both laughing - she sounded kind of hesitant at first, there are alot of things about this dog some people would not like, but he doesnt sound any different from my already irritating escapist, thief and yard-ruiner, so we're going to meet sometime this weekend. She kept stressing that "he's not good on a leash" but neither was Freebee - a no pull harness and a firm hand took care of that. I think we'll be ok, if she likes him....he looks so sad in that picture... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

courtnek Posted June 10, 2003 Author Share Posted June 10, 2003 y'know, I'm starting to think the shelters are against me...Pirate was adopted by somebody else - first come first served, I guess, but I can only get there on the weekends... SO..I am now hoping for this guy... [img]http://www.animalhouseshelter.com/images/thumbs/8863466.jpg[/img] he's a 6 mnth old Shepherd Mix, his name is Bear, and I just think Freebee would like him...I have been emailing the lady and begging that she not adopt him out til this weekend when I can come see him... She still has to approve my application... this shouldnt be so difficult.... wish me luck!! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
courtnek Posted June 10, 2003 Author Share Posted June 10, 2003 the really sad part is - there are so many dogs that need adoption, but so few that will get along with a dominant female dog - and they always seem to be gone before I can get to them.... I'm feeling very misplaced... :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malamum Posted June 10, 2003 Share Posted June 10, 2003 It will come Courntnek, and when it does it will be well worth the wait. We are all behind you and Freebee in your search for a suitable second fur kid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
