Grappling
It's impossible.
It's totally impossible.
We don't have the proper cars. We vacation too much. Our houses are too small. Our beds are too small.
Yet.
Matt and I are thinking of getting another dog. I believe there must be about a ten-time limit of surfing the local shelter's web sites and finding beasts like:
My name is Cleo. You can probably tell from my picture that I'm not a purebred Saint Bernard. I am a mix, most likely German Shepherd. I am a very sweet, very smart girl. I love to play with the other dogs in my foster home, and I don't seem to have much interest in cats. I would love to find a home where I can spend the rest of my life with a real family of my own.
and
Hi, I'm Seamus ( shay-muss )! I came to Rescue because I escaped from my back yard when it snowed and got into trouble. I am a smooth coat, medium-sized Saint mix ( probably have some lab in my family tree somewhere, but don't hold it against me ). I am very athletic, and love to play. I weigh about 100 pounds now, so I'll be a good sized boy when I'm done growing. I would love to find a home with a playmate with my energy level. I will need obedience training, but do fine in a crate, and have my house-training down cold.
and
I am a beautiful 2 year old fawn male. I am such a sweet, shy little boy. My Hocobare helper says my pictures don't do me justice, and that my face in incredible! I was very scared in the kennel and I shook in fear, but when I was in a foster home with 2 other boxers to play with, I came out of my shell and was doing fabulous! I am very affectionate and have lots of love to give. I will steal your heart!
before you go and grab one. I also believe, on some level, that because we can both afford it and provide solid, loving, permanent homes to abandoned critters, we should. We just should. And, of course, a big, furry, drooly addition will bring us one step closer to our goal of founding the Park Hill ice bear army.
