Well, Solo went on another trial run today. I really like the people, I have a very good feeling about them.
They owned a Belgian before (out of Visa's uncle), but he passed away recently and their kids have been bugging them about getting another, so they decided to secretly come visit Solo tonight. And they liked him alot, so he's now going to stay there until Friday. They go away Thanksgiving weekend and don't think it would be fair to take him on vacation when he will not be used to them yet, so they will bring him back on Friday and let me know if they want to take him forever.
They want to keep him at his usual vet (which I love, because the last people that took him for a trial took him to another vet the day after, and they said he was aggressive with the vet, and I've never seen him behave aggressively before with anyone -- and he LOVES HIS vet), and my vet is holistic and wouldn't push vaccines on them. They seemed interested in raw feeding. And the lady works very close to my work.
They were very nice. They asked all sorts of questions, like which hand signals and commands I use. And they didn't mind that he is crazy like the wind lol. They think he's absolutely gorgeous, even though he's completely bald (sooo out of coat!).
I have a really good feeling about them. The last person that took him, I cried and cried..and for some reason, even though it seemed perfect, I just knew it wouldn't work. But I feel happy right now, I feel very happy for Solo, and have a good feeling that it will all work out. The husband works at hoem during the day, so Solo will never be alone, and they have 5 older children to keep him very busy and active. It sounds liek a good match. I do wish there was another dog for Solo to play with, but maybe he will become the baby and get alot more attention.
Anyways, wish him luck. I sure hope it works out for him!
