    Might be getting a puppy

    I called a small rescue about some Lab-Malamute mix puppies. They are 7 weeks old. I'm still waiting to hear back from them, since I didn't get no answer and had to leave a message.

    I also called about some 9 week old Lab mix puppies, and the guy had them said he would call me back, and let me know when it is ok to see them. If the rescue don't call me back then I might go see these puppies this weekend or first of next week.

    I'm really trying be good and go with a shelter dog, or rescue. But if I don't hear anything back about the first puppies, then I will probably go with the second litter of puppies.

    We went to a couple shelters last weekend. But didn't really find a dog or puppy that we really fell in love with. There was some great looking dogs & pups but I just didn't feel no connection to any of them. I feel really bad about saying that.

    There was one puppy I almost adopted but I just didn't feel right. I felt really bad for him. I looked on Petfinder to see if he was still at the shelter but he was gone off there, hopefully someone adopted him.

    Good luck with whichever route you choose. All that is important is that you find the right dog for your family. I wanted so badly to rescue our new addition too but the rescue never called us back, and we have stumbled upon a perfect situation for our family.

    Oh please keep us posted. I know it was hard to lose Samantha in such a horrible way. I hope your new addition to the family can bring you some comfort. Good luck.

    I know what you mean about "feeling bad" when you go to see a pup or a group of them at a shelter and you just don't seem to make that connection. I felt the same way while I was looking. You feel like. "what's wrong with me". All of these pups are wonderful. They all need love and just want somebody to love them and take them home with them. I guess that's just natural. I felt like I should take them all home with me!!!

    But I think you have to expect that and endure it so that you are sure to get a good match that will make a wonderful relationship that will last a lifetime. Good luck... I am excited for you!!!
