Agreed! Lefty is very handsome and I can't wait to see pictures of him in his forever home! Phred is right! I was at a shelter one day with my daughter, on an errand for her, and just "looked around." End result: Ripley! :) :) :)Quote:

He is just beautiful:D I can't wait to see some pics of him when you get the chance!!
Oh my what lovely fellow he is :D that is very exciting, congratulations
Ooooh, he's so cute!!! Congratulations, you new dog owner, you! And kudos to you for getting an older pupper. Lefty is absolutely gorgeous. Give him a big hug and a kiss from me and Samantha!!
Congratulations, Smilla! What a loving home this beautiful pup will have with you and your husband.:D
What a cutie! So glad you rescued this pooch!
Thank you, everyone, for all of the congratulations!
Lefty had an interesting first night. He was a bit of a pickle because he wanted up on the bed instead of on his little bed beside ours. He would try jumping up discreetly and settling down quickly and quietly--as if he thought we wouldn't notice! ;) (Got to give him credit for being clever!) Needless to say, we didn't get much sleep, but I think he just needs some time to settle in and learn boundaries. The bed is the one place he can't go, so I don't think it'll be too hard.
This morning he was just fine and didn't fuss when I left. I gave him the run of the house, which I'm not sure I should have done, but I wanted to at least try it. He has his "New Dog" exam at the vet this Saturday, so he has a couple of days to settle down.
I'm really excited and can't wait to go home and play with him! :) Thanks again and I hope to post pics soon--meanwhile I also need to get caught up on YOUR kids!
CONGRATULATIONS! He's a gorgeous fellow. :D
I think the name Sikan fits him. :)
Hey Karen,
Yep, we moved out to Maynard in June; we bought our first home! (We'd never have been able to afford anything in Belmont!) We wanted to get into our own place before getting a dog, and this seems like a great little neighborhood. Friendly neighbors and lots of dogs!
Hope things are going well for you.

Oh it just makes my heart soar to hear that you got an older "used" dog! Honestly - I wonder who benefits from the rescue more - the dogs or the new owners! Congratulations!
Congratulations on home ownership. Prices in the metro Boston area are sooo high - we were lucky to buy when we did, as our "appraised value has almost doubled since we bought it - less than 7 years ago!Quote:

We got Miss Hoppy soon after we bought our house, it's fun how a furry friend came make a place seem more like home!
This news just warmed my heart all over & such a welcome feeling THAT is :) He's a very handsome fellow & I'm sure that finally having his VERY OWN FAMILY will help him get settled in quickly. What good news for all :) Hope you find things went well today when you get home ;)
That is so nice. I can't think of anything so rewarding as saving a dog from a shelter. Your new buddy is very lucky, CONGRADULATIONS!
!!~CONGRADULATIONS~!!
He is very handsome boy~!! Can't wait to see more pictures of him~!:D
