Hey everyone, how are you all doing? I'm just wondering if anyone remembers me and my crew. My computer died a little while before Valentine's Day, and I didn't have internet for the longest time, until about a month ago. All of mine are doing great, I have my permanent 4 dogs, Sam, Casey, Boomer, and zoie, plus a rottie puppy name dallas that I have until I find her another home. My paint horse, Molly, started having problems with arthritis, so I ended up doing a trade with the neighbors, she is going to a pet home with some kids, and now I have an appendix qh named Ava. My cockatiel, Tiki, is doing great and so are my fish. Here is a pic of the crew and of Ava. I will post more pics later on. :)

One of the main reasons I came here today, other than to resume posting with all you wonderful people, is to reach out for help. A friend decided to take a puppy about 3 days ago, even after much discouraging on my part. After having it for only a night, she called me the next morning and asked if I knew anyone who wanted it, because she "couldn't keep her". I'm not totally sure the reason, but I think it has something to do with the fact that it was cute at first, but then she had to deal with the puppy antics. I called some people I knew, and asked if she could keep it at least until the next day. She said no. She decided that she would probably take it to animal services, a county-run kill shelter, in which any dog dropped off, has a 50% chance of being euthanized. So, after some hurried phone calls, I called her back and asked if she could keep it until after I got off work, at about 9pm, maybe another 5 hours. She said maybe. She was going to give it to another friend of ours, until I could pick it up, but the friend wasnt going to be home for another hour. I was talking to her on the phone, and I heard her sister in law ask if she was ready to go to animal services...after a few more hurried phone calls, I called her back to ask once again, if she could keep until 9pm (at this time it was 3pm, only another 6 hours), and she said no, shes going to get rid of it. :mad: I made her meet me and I took the puppy home right away.
So, to sum it up, I am looking for a home for an 8 week old female Rottweiler mix puppy. She is just about housebroken! It seems that she has an accident every morning though, but just one (kind of wierd, I know) but other than that she whines to go outside. I took her to the vet yesterday and got all her shots and her worming done. I did hear that she got stepped on by her mom when she was little, so she wobbles sometimes when she walks. She is learning about the leash, but she is also content to just follow you around, she does not have a tendency to run off. She loves kids and other dogs, and she plays all day with whippet mix, Zoie. I know there are a few PTers around Florida, I would be more than happy to drive her if someone has a home for her. The most important thing, though, is that she finds a permanent home, we are her fourth home.
