Well, it sounds like Scout is a very lucky dog with you as her doting owner! I wish all dogs were as well taken care of as yours and mine are. It's wonderful that you are able to do rescue for the poor homeless dogs. I am very happy that you found a home for that one rescue you had. It sounds like a great home and I hope it works out and the dog has a forever home now!

Thanks, Susie and Dobie!
I have several dogs who were strays or unwanted pets. Most of them I will keep because I've had them so long that they are MIINE or I am THEIRS. lol. And they have their little quirks and habits that I am already accustomed to. :P A couple of them are old now--11 or 12. They are quite content to live with me and I don't know if they'd adapt to a new life.
But I look for homes for some of them and tell the people that I will take them back if they don't work out.
I have one dog who has been to 2 different homes. One---the little girl loved her, but the grandmother who lived in said that the dog shed too much. (Whatever) And the other one--the teen aged girl took really good care of her--she brought her over in her car to visit and kept her immaculately clean, but her mom made her bring her back because the mom suddenly developed an allergy. (???)
Anyway--this one that I just placed loves children and I have no children. She will be ecstatic there. I keep in contact and have checked on her several times this week. This is her first time to be placed. I picked her up after she'd been at my workplace with no collar on for several days in the winter. I put an ad in the local paper and no one answered it. I had her spayed and got all her shots. She's a healthy and active little mutt!
I also got my cat from the humane society. She is 16 now--kinda feeble, but still spunky.

Thanks, that's sweet, Susie. Most Brokies have good hearts!! I love Brokies.
Especially Brokies who love kids and animals!! ;D

I just found my first dead mouse courtesy of my cats...
in my living room, this morning, sort of shrivelled up...
:(
I put a box over it until I can figure out how to umm, get rid of it, with the least amount of screaming and grossness as possible...
>:(

Get a huge wad of paper towels. Put a plastic bag right beside the corpse. Pick it up with the paper towels and put it in the plastic bag. Tie the top tightly twice!! Speaking from experience here! ICKY!! :o
