It is so hard to adopt from some of these agencies.  They never leave you alone!  I think I'll go through a breeder when it is time. 
Take time to smell the roses.

I was fortunate in that we got our little puppy from a very close friend. If not for that we wouldn't have a dog right now I am thinking. . . just one more thing. . .

Gryphon

well the first one was, according to the rescue, a yorkie-poo. Although he was much larger than any yorkie Ive ever seen....and I think he looked more like a Havanese.
That one I could understand, because they had dozens of applicants for him, and IM sure whoever they chose will give him a good home.

The second one...who knows...he was just a lil mutt. One thing that works against me, is that they ask for a "Vet reference". Well, as I dont have a apet, and havent since I was a kid, I dont have a vet reference.

Have I told you how much I dislike this time of year?  :rant:

Another good source is a rescue. They have requirements too, but are different from many of the shelters. That is if you want a dog that is purebred. There's a rescue for just about any type of dog.

I was nearly killed this morning on the DC beltway!  :mad:

As I was coming around the beltway over near Andrews AFB, Air Force One came over the road at treetop level (Yes, dammit, I know it isn't Air Force One unless the POTUS is on board) Now that is not an uncommon occurrence, but it still is a bit of a heart-stopper.

Anyway, out of the corner of my eye I noticed that the car to my left was drifting quickly into my lane. I had to take a hard right turn to keep from getting creamed. It's a good the traffic was relatively light because I had to swerve across the two lanes to my right, all the while leaning on the horn.

What I saw still makes my blood boil. Some stupid young blond had a cell phone to her ear with one hand and a camera to the windshield with the other.

:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:
You're not alone BoD. I almost ditched the Corolla 4 times ,on my way home from work. I hate icy roads.  :mad: If that bimbo almost ran me off the road, I probably would've followed her to her destination, pulled her out the car window, and shoved both the phone, and camera, as well as my foot up her ass. If that had happened to me today, that's what I would have done, I'm having one those no nonsense days.  :sneaky:

I just  had a set of mud and snow tires installed on the 4X4 ;D  I had a set of "all terrain" tires before, but wanted something a little more aggressive this time.  Now I am ready for some snow AND mud :biggrin: :biggrin:

Got a new set myself a few weeks back, and transportation isn't the issue for me. It's the  constant bathing of the puppy that gets me irritated!  :rolleyes:

And it's thundering and lightening and pouring outside. Tornado warnings until 2 AM for a lot of the surrounding counties south of us. Flood warnings for just about everywhere. . . :rant:
