We got them on a Saturday, and one of the puppies, the little girl, was already adopted by a family for pickup the following Monday. We dropped her off with her new family on Monday without issues. But then, massive fail. We fell in love with the little boy that was staying with us. Please meet the newest addition to our family.

Dennis Goyette wrote:The puppies go faster than free money, which is why I tend to gravitate to the ones that are senior and the most difficult to place. Greta and Gunny's previous dad was having health issues, in and out of the hospital and had major heart surgery this month. They had been looking to place them for 4 months (at least they weren't shelter bound, still at his house till they came my way.) The previous senior bonded pair I adopted were in the shelter for 10 months. No one wanted them cause they were senior, bonded pair, and didn't get along with any other pets or livestock or young children. Being a senior myself and alone with no other animals besides wild ones, I was a perfect match for them. Before that, there was Olfric. A Rin Tin Tin type of senior German Shepard who was abused harshly in Arkansas. He made a long trip up north to safety. He had been fostered for 2 years with out being adopted. Besides being a senior (10 at my adoption), he also had health issues due to the neglect and abuse.

Start with small one that is easy to handle and would be a lap dog. Of course emotionally it is draining when they only stick around for 3-5 years. Makes you try and appreciate the time even more.
