I do. I think if I get a good vibe from someone, I dunno, like I could hang out with them...it's cool.
And I thought that's what I found for Shermie.
A nice married lady, older son (about to move out), husband. Fenced in backyard. Has a weenie now, along with two other dogs. (One was supposed to move out with the son).
The lady has the same tattoo that I have! The one of Picasso's "Lump" wiener dog.
It was meant to be.
Until it was not.
When he left...I was super sad. Cried and cried. Days leading up to his adoption, I cried and cried.
But I have to be an adult here. Mature. Responsible.
I'm in no position to keep this dog.
FOUR dogs?
That's too many.
But after one short weekend away, Shermie's new mom texted me and said her son couldn't bring a dog, she couldn't have 4 dogs in her town, yada, yada, yada.
So we went and got him.
And he seemed SO HAPPY to be home.
I mean. He fell asleep in our bed almost immediately and stayed there the entire night.
And of course since then, he's been an absolute gentleman.
Very little barking/whining.
Settling in his crate when needed just fine.
No accidents.
Sleeps in bed and cuddles with Wiener.
I can't take it.
I don't know if I can let him go again.
They didn't snuggle a lot at first. I'd say it took at least 4 weeks before we saw any of this behavior. Shermie is very active and Wiener isn't a fan when he's all crazy. But this? I cannot. |
He is the busiest boy. He's super curious and is just a riot to be around. He has the best personality and is hilarious. |
The one ear flop these guys are known for. I'm going to get a tattoo with that on the back of my other arm. |
The night we let him go the first time. I was a wreck. |
The day he came home from the failed adoption |
Just hanging out while I take Ava to the bus stop |
Stop it. So cute! |
