Who would have thought that I would be excited to be DOWN to seven dogs in the house? This little guy is a three month old pit bull puppy that we've had since Saturday evening. He is going to be a HUGE dog if he is only three months right now. Anyway, how he came into our temporary possession: we followed a policeman home on Saturday night and watched as he pulled behind and blocked off our new neighbor's vehicle. We've met her once. She was arrested that night for attempted vehicular homicide - she apparently tried to run over a lady on our street who owed her $40.00. This little guy was running loose at the time and she asked the policeman if Mike could keep him until she got out. We did have an extra kennel and ended up with him and several plastic bags of refridgerator stuff she was getting ready to move into the house. Tonight at around 10:20 p.m. the doorbell rang. It was two guys apparently related to her who had come to collect the dog and food. YAY!!!! He was a sweet little guy, but I was a little stressed about the growing number of animals in the house. For awhile I was thinking maybe it was a God thing that she asked us to watch the dog. I had planned to invite her to church when she came to retrieve him. I guess I'll just have to make a point to do that whenever/if ever she is released from jail and back across the street from us.
Pray though...we are meeting with a lady tomorrow after work who might take the Maltese. We didn't really want to split them up, but if it means a good home for each of them, we are willing to. We've had several calls on the Dachsund too, so hopefully he'll find his new home soon. I'll let you know when that happens. I'll be celebrating. My dogs don't bark. These little things do. :(
