ok, I guess i feel a bit better. Turns out Boot's ex family didn't plan to have him leave that day. Their daughter in law's cousin stopped by to take their granddaughter home, was greeted by a very happy, vivacious Boots, who proceeded to lay across this lady's feet after licking her to pieces. She remarked how she'd been looking for a dog for her son, and *Viola*!, Boots got an instant new home. He gleefully jumped into her van, tail wagging, off to his new home.
Apparently Boots lives near by and there's an open invite to see him anytime. He already got to sleep on the boy's bed the first night "as a treat" ( :rolleyes: )).
My neighbor knew i must have been devastated, and came over tonight to apologize that she didn't let me know while the cousin was at her house, so I could kiss the little bugger goodbye. But, oh well, there's nothing I can do. i still feel betrayed, but maybe I'll see him. I just hope he turns out to be an awesome boy.
