I saw a sweet little senior chihuhua girl named Pip on Petfinder. As soon as I read her bio, I was on a mission to bring her to my home.
Let the campaign begin!
The wait is killing me!
Yes, I submitted application but wait… there’s more! I had to answer several questions and then silence. Well, the rescue is run by volunteers who truly care about their animals and want the best home for their girl. Still, smoked. Apparently, they do not know who I am. JK.
Reference check and answer some more questions!
Well, the reference check panned out. My best friend ever did alert me that they were getting close. I received a text and then an email. I answered all the questions from the heart and then silence!
Yeah, I know! It was killing me too.
Woohoo, the phone call that we have been all been waiting for in our household. We can do a meet and greet. What? “You have to bring your current dog for a meet and greet.” OMG! It makes sense but my mind whirls. See, Lance doesn’t like car rides and this one is over 2 hours away. Plus, my mind whirls into to what ifs. For example, Lane is going to die from a heart attack from the travel alone and possibly from picking up a new dog. Wonder if he doesn’t like her? What if I lose him while visit a new area because he’s freaking out? Yes, this is my brain. I love it and I hate it.
We made it to the Connecticut pick up location.
We made it! Yeah! Nothing that was whirling into my head came true. Best part, both of them were just fine with each other. To be honest, it was way better than expected.
See below.. Let the love fest begin.
