    ...and this time we actually got a dog

    So, in my previous thread, I described the frustrations my family experienced while trying to adopt a dog. Well, today the wife & daughter went down mid-day and found that the area's large shelter wasn't very busy. The people took time & suggested dogs, tested them with the shelter's poor test cat (a true ninja), and let the family spend some time with a dog. Presenting the newest member of the family,

    Dr. Bombay:




    He's a mix, but not sure of what. I'd bet there's some Greyhound in there because of his posture (big chest, shinny waist). Maybe some Lab, too. He's got lots of energy, but settles down OK. He & our cats (Samantha & Tabitha) are getting along much better than I'd hoped, which is to say that the cats are avoiding the dog, and he's leaving them alone. I didn't think I'd be bringing a dog home tonight, but there you go.

    Aww, he looks so sweet. Congrats.
    You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

        All of my dogs have been rescues, and they've all been great companions.

                Thanks, all. He's been pretty good, considering all he's been through in the last 24 hours. If he'd stay off of the leather couch, and stop trying to herd my daughter, then he'd be the greatest dog ever.

                  fantastic. he's cute. My family and I rescued a dog a week and half ago. she's a little **** but we love her anyway....can't wait to get her house broken. Tired of cleaning up poo. enjoy your new pal. I did not realize how much I missed a dogs companionship after my last dog died just before Christmas
