It has been a long day.
We didn't get that adorable John Paul; someone else adopted him first. I burst into tears in front of the clerk when she confirmed it, which was embarrassing. She had a box of tissues ready, so I guess that happens sometimes.
Spent a lot of time looking at Nice Dogs that just didn't work for me. (Dinah, the little shepherd mix, who is pretty and sweet and polite and friendly and just not my dog. People who said I would know when I met My Dog were right, and she wasn't it.) Met a nice little black dog who was only timid when surrounded by two dozen barking dogs; she was sweet, friendly, and curious as soon as she got to move away from that madhouse.
She's getting spayed tonight. We're picking her up tomorrow afternoon. This is a picture of her.
Sorry for all the dog spam in my journal, lately; it's been a rather rougher ride than I expected. And awkward dog acquisition timing, at this point. But I'm not going to lose another dog to "didn't show up fast enough" or "didn't make up my mind soon enough", like the last...two. Or three. Or five.
