But in that case I understand what you are saying, I thought you just meant that none seemed to jump out at you as much, not that none fit what you were looking for in age/size etc. Best wishes though, I hope you find that perfect one soon!

LOL well I kinda meant both. LOL. but most importantly none seem like the fit we are looking for for Teddy.

I don't know the specifics of what exactly went on that made them change to that policy. but a friend of ours just adopted a beagle/basset from there and that is what they told her too. They approve your application right on the spot though so you can see the dog but other than that I don't know much of the specifics of why exactly the felt the need to go this route.
