Guess I should update!

I really don't want to slack off so I guess I should update this huh? Well I have decided to pass on the rescue. I put a lot of thought into the decision and I just don't feel like it's the right option anymore. They place ALL of the dogs who come in who are trailed, healthy, ect with members of their organization and basically all that is left are dogs who are elderly and/or have severe disabilities. I really can't afford to take on a major health problem from a dog. I looked and looked and found a REALLY sweet breeder in Whitley City, KY who we are going to get a puppy from. They have 8 puppies to choose from (what a big litter!) 6 of them are boys, which is great because I really want to get a boy! I already have his name all picked out, Bentley Bowman. I've started picking up things for him here and there but can't wait to go all out on a shopping trip for the little guy. He will be ready to pick up on March 7th.

Whitley City is quite the drive, its almost all the way to Tennessee so the lady was kind enough to meet us an hour from her house, which is great an hour is an hour we can spend at home with our new baby! I think my Mom and/or Kevin are going with me to pick him up. The lady said she does not take deposits so picking out a puppy is first come first serve and I will be there AS SOON as she will let them go to their new homes. She said she would bring all of the puppies with her so I could choose which one I wanted.

I'm supposed to call her back the 20th/20st to plan out all the details and let her know we still want one. I told her I DEF did want one and she took my name and number down. I am soooo excited about getting a puppy! I really wish the rescue would have been easier to work with. It's sad, I still haven't heard from them this week with any information.
