Way to go, Pearl-girl!!
« on: September 27, 2005, 11:20:31 pm »
Roger, the guy that's mowed my lawn for the last several years came by today to mow, so I took all the new furbabies out to meet & greet and tell him their stories (he's a dog lover, too!)....

Well, he looks at Pearl and asks - "how do you get one like her?"
 
I tell him that she's up for adoption!  He wants Pearl!!  I kept asking him - "are you sure?" and explained her fear, neglect, & abuse issues, that she was not going to be a giant like Casper & Bella, but more the size of a sheltie....and he just kept saying that he wanted her!  Pearl even showed just how scared she was of anything new by trying to hide under the junipers...so I went & picked her up & brought her to him and he sat & held her & loved on her & she started smiling!  He's gonna get his daughters to download the application and I gave him one of SPIN's pamplets (my printer's usb port isn't working so I couldn't download it & print it out for him)..... 

Please keep "Mini" Pearl in your prayers that this works out!!!   ;D

It does my heart good to hear a happy tail once in a while.  After katrina and rita I think we could all use one.

You go Pearl!

Oh, I am sooo excited for her & sad, too!  I've grown attached!!!  I don't see how I couldn't get attached 'cause Pearl is a sweetheart!   Here she is chilled out after a morning's play with Lucy.

I'm sad & I'm glad::::::

Apparently, Roger is not in too much of a hurry to adopt - he hasn't turned in an application - that I know of..... :(

What's good about this:::::

I took Pearl to meet a potential adopting family & she was a hit....they are looking at some of the other Pyrs on SPIN's list.....pleas e keep paws crossed & prayers going that they will fall in love with any of them.........a nd.........

Yes, Donut is on the family's list to look at, too.....so now I'm torn...do I root for Pearl or Donut???  Hee hee!  Both!!! ;D

Hey, that's a great idea...Pearl really likes her am/pm playtime (she sleeps during the day) - what would be better than to have another dog her own size there to play with.......let's put a bug in Walter's ear & have him mention it to them when they visit with him & Donut later this week! :D

Not that I'm emotionally involved here at any level, but I'm rooting for Pearl!
