6/9 Dogs, dogs, dogs

Just got an email from someone who works with my sisters. She said she wants both my dogs. She lives in the country in Missouri. Wow! This would be the best case scenario if Quincy and Cookie can stay together. As much as I'm going to miss them, this is absolutely the best thing. My back is really hurting tonight, and has been all day. So I love these two critters so much, but know I can't give them what they need. And they can't give me what I need--some rest.

I'm sad, happy, happy, sad...and just want to find the best possible home for them.

I hope it all works out. I think it would be awesome if they could stay together. Best of luck. Love you.

"Country" also rings my bell. My friend had a basenji that was totally incorrigible in New York. He went to a farmer in Iowa and he thrived there. No more crazy behavior. I don't think the basenji had enough opportunity to run in the city. One he was too tired to be obnoxious, he became a lovable dog.

I hope it works out, Jer.

Thanks, DF. I'm resigned and very happy for the little critters. My depression is selfish but I'll get over it. :)

Jer! This is such great news. And what could be more perfect for all of you?

Yep, Nancie, it's the right answer to a hard question.
