OT: everybody wish me luck

Post by BoozeTan »

Im trying to adopt this puppy

http://www.petfinder.com/pet.cgi?action ... mpl=&stat=

its quite a process. I had to fill out an application, which got "approved". Now I h ave to go meet the dog tomorrow night. If that goes well, the shelter/foundation has to visit my house to see where and how I live to see if its "suitable environment for the dog". If all that gets "approved" I get the pup......I dont think its this hard to adopt a kid

You need to fill out a few more papers and get a few more approvals to adopt a baby but it sounds like you will be experiencing a little bit of it when adopting this puppy. Good luck to you.

Good luck. Our rescued lab mix has turned out to be a wonderful dog. Frisbee athlete, yard de-squirreler, fun loving, sofa snoozing, affectionate, energetic hair factory.

Give 'em lots of exercise and a clear set of rules, and you'll have a great friend.

My cat Bubba thinks he is a dog. Snap your finger, he come to you. He also enjoys refreshing drinks from the toilet.

Good luck Booze.....seeing that pic makes me want one too. I just don't have the time to devote to a dog since I travel a lot on weekends. She looks like she'll make a great friend though.

Well, they also spay her before they give her to anyone, and I guess its also a way of making sure the animal goes to someone that really wants her

I believe that name is already taken Hal. No copyright infringement please.

Good luck with the adoption Booze. Real cute dog.
