Evening all.
I didn't do very much today. Well, to be honest, nothing at all.
I did go to the dog pound to look at some dogs. I found one that really liked. A male hound mix that seemed very sweet. He's brown and white and while I would never choose a dog based on eye color, he even has one full blue eye and the other has a touch of blue in it.
One of the things I do is ask a dog to sit, just to see it they have any kind of training at all. This one not only sat but also shook hands/paw when I asked him to. He had gone potty but I noticed it was by the door so I'm thinking he wanted to go out.
I'm honestly thinking about going back and getting him. The fee is only $75.00 and that includes the surgery to sterilize him or her, the micro chip and the rabies shot.
I saw 3 other dogs that interested me. A bull terrier (looked like a pure breed) and a lab mix that looked so much like Sheena that it could be her twin.
I would have taken the 3rd dog in a heartbeat but as it was a toy fox terrier, I didn't think it would be fair to him or to Sheena. He wouldn't be big enough to really play with her without my being afraid he would get hurt. He looked just like Sunday (the first dog I had when I was growing up). Sunday lived until I was in High School and this one was only about a year old.
Sadly, there was one dog there that was giving birth. Everyone was clustered around that cage to see the puppies being born. It broke my heart because I wonder what kind of chance they have. How long will the pound allow them live before they are put down? Mom, too.
