I got a dog!!!!!

[Maraya1969]

Some may remember that 1 1/2 years ago I adopted a senior dog named Duke. He was a lover and I was glad to let him spend his twilight years with me. He died a few months ago.

So my favorite type of dog is a Chihuahua, (which Duke was) and I applied all over the place to Chihuahua rescues. Finally I checked my local shelter and they had about 4 of them posted. Apparently a hoarder was found out and they took 10 chihuahuas out of the house.

So I made sure I was there at opening time and good thing because there were a few other women looking for the Chihuahuas too.

So Peanut just had babies and was just spayed and she is a dream. She follows me everywhere I go and she even does her business outside. So here she is!

5. Aw, I love those dogs.

She sounds like a real sweetheart. :)

I wish I could adopt one! *pout* :P

6. Why can't you adopt one?

7. I live relatively far from where I work...

I'm just not home enough. :(

8. Doggies can make us better people, if we'll only pay attention.

Perhaps much better, if peanut's picture is anything to go by. :loveya:

I'd say "bless you" for adopting, but I realize that that's sorta redundant.

I'm already in love with her.

13. I'm very glad that you adopted an older dog ( Duke). Not

many people do, and they are wonderful companions.

Our dog - whose second name is Peanut - is a Great Dane/Doberman, about 115 pounds, and a real sweetheart. He is about 8 now.
Have a long, happy time with your new friend.
