I know I've said this a thousand times, but we have the PERFECT DOG FOR US. All we have to do is get approved to adopt her.

You might remember Dahlia. Ohhhhh the lovely black dog from the icon?

Yep...that pretty girl. I totally fell in love with her on the trip. And now she's officially up for adoption. I thought she seemed to match us but their description is even more certain!

If ever there were a PERFECT companion dog--Dahlia is it. Which breaks our hearts, cause we pulled her one day before she was to be euthanized--the curse of the BBD (Big Black Dog) syndrome : (
Dallie is 3 yrs old, so at the age of sanity, and only 46 Lbs, so not a BIG big dog (the breed mix has been the guess of several knowledgeable dog people). And what a LOVE!! She lives for love and affection, and while not a velcro dog, is a want-to-be-with-you-cause-that-makes-me-happy kind of dog.
NO, none whatsoever, bad behaviors!! None of the Border needs for high exercise nor herding behaviors. Dallie is house trained, leash trained, learning sit, sleeps right next to you, not barky (but will let you know someone is at the house), SWEET and LOVING girl. I fear she might be one of the many foreclosure dogs that are turning up in the shelters these days. She obviously came from a loving home and is of a very endearing nature.


Keep your fingers crossed for this one folks! We're going to rent David's ex-wife's place for a couple months if we need to! It'll be a hassle, but well worth it if we can get her!

46 pounds is nothing! Our runt turned out to be 105 and still growing. Hope you get her!

46lbs is perfect. We're looking for a 35-50 lb dog or so. I'm worried that we won't get her though because we're in transition -- currently living in a place where we can't have dogs, but moving very soon. I guess we'll see!

Yay! The sweet spotted-tongue doggie! Will it be weird renting from David's ex?

Nah...not really. Mostly because she's in Washington state and we're in NY. We won't even see her! lol I just hope they'll consider us what with our odd situation.
