Sooo guess what I'm doing next Thur

my mom is going to totally *cave* and we're going to wind up with a dog. I know it!

That's how we got Kaedyn! I was volunteering for school hours and found my grumpy old man!

Have fun! It's a blast volunteering at a shelter!

My daughter and I did that for her community service, it was a lot of fun. I never caved

A Pt'er didn't cave? Wow, LOL. That's a shock to me. I thought that's how you got Casey? Well, my mom can't stand seeing animals in cages, she refuses to go to petstores who sell dogs. She caved so fast for Max, but it obviously didn't work out with that, so I know she'll cave for another dog. It'll probably the one that needs the most excersice, sheds the most, etc knowing her. And we were NEVER getting another pet after Sassy, remember that? Ohh, she'll cave at least for fostering and then with that she'll eventually adopt the dog. I KNOW her so well, haha.

Thanks guys! I'll be sure to tell you of my experiences!

Awesome, good luck!
I can't wait to hear how it goes.

I did rescue Casey from a shelter but by the time we volunteered we had the two and that was enough. There was a female pitbull that we were really tempted by but her and casey would just have not gotten along I just knew it There was a kitty that my daughter cried for and truth be told if it didn't get adopted real quick I probably would have caved but 2 dogs, a cat and 2 teenagers is all I can handle right now.

Luckily the shelter we were at was pretty much no kill, I would have been in trouble if it wasn't.

That would be dangerous for me. LOL Are you ever going to have the stories to share! Good luck and best wishes. The animals are going to love you for it.

Well, we just got back from the orentation and it went great!! The lady was really excited to see me and my friend Alexa getting involved so young at the shelter. We signed up for a Cat socialization meeting this Sunday and the Dog walking meeting NEXT saturday!

Oh, and guess who signed up for fostering kittens and puppies? You guessed it, my mom!! Me and my sister talked her into it. Oh and guess who's going to be a FOSTER FAILURE? We are very excited. We don't get the puppies till January though, but that's okay. We have them for about ten days but love will develope, trust me.

omg how exciting, Alyssa!! I'm thrilled for you! I've always wanted to volunteer at the shelter near our area, but it's just way too far.
I hope this foster failure thing works out for you!
