Der Brucer and I took Zeus with us as we ran our errands. Good thing, because we kept running into people who would say "What a nice dog," and then they'd listen to our spiel about how he is up for adoption. Second good thing, that I keep a small notepad in my pocket, because several times I wrote down our phone number, so that people could give us a call. One woman DID call us, interested in adopting Zeus, and she sounded like a very good candidate as an owner. Unfortunately, her father got to talking with her after her first call, and talked her out of the idea as her work hours are rather hectic and she wouldn't have time for the pooch.
Still, in all...
