    Thank you all for the encouraging words, I know that I will know when the time is right and we have found the one. Waiting longer is probably for the best, I will reassess whether we are still ready or not when the time comes. It will be good not to have to worry about the fence and it's good to...

    Trying to choose a breed, help please

    Well I have some disappointing news, the rescue just emailed me saying she has started having issues with other dogs on walks and no longer feel comfortable placing her with us especially with little ones. While I'm disappointed I do understand and feel it's for the best as well, I would rather...

    Gosh I hate the waiting game just one more week until we get to meet shilah! No update really, I did talk to the foster mom she did offer to meet halfway but as we talked I decided it would be nice to see her in an environment she is comfortable with and use to. So we will make the drive and...

    Thanks for the idea, the lady said the foster parents will call me with info on the address/directions so maybe I'll ask them then. We are planning for August 31st to go meet her, can't wait!

    Oh wow! Definitely not that would have been scary, so glad you waited a week! Thank you and I certainly will! I just heard back from the rescue and I guess the place that's a little over 2 hours away is where she's located at her foster home so we will have to make the drive. I will just do...

    Trying to choose a breed, help please

    Oh thank goodness, I'll admit I was worried what the responses would be but I honestly did want to know. I feel better responding to the rescue now. I think I'm going to verify where her foster parents are actually located, if they are closer and we can work something out that would be great but...

    Trying to choose a breed, help please

    Thank you both for the helpful information, good to know. We just need the latch for the fence then it's finished. We almost were able to meet her/possibly bring home on Sunday but my husband can't get the day off so I told the rescue what our schedule is like in hopes we can figure out another...

    I can't wait to show you all more pictures! Am I supposed to wait some time before taking her on walks to let her get used to us? If so how long do I wait?

    We are so close to the gate being finished! Unfortunately hubby hurt his arm working on it and wasn't up to completing it and has to go back to work tomorrow :no: I feel so bad but there's not much I can really do. As for the fence it just requires one more latch that goes into the ground to...

    Yes this was what I meant sorry for the confusion. That is awful I just don't understand what their goal/purpose was but even so they fought so hard to keep Piper why wouldn't they take care of her properly ugh. I hope we find out more. I also hope something is done to prevent these situations...

    Piper news?

    Wow just saw this yesterday and went through it. This is one of the most heartbreaking and absurd things I've seen/read. I'm so happy that Piper is finally reunited with her family but just can not believe everything that had to happen for it to turn out so. I certainly hope She is reimbursed...
