Flint sounds perfect and I am so happy for you and will keep my fingers crossed! I recently went through the waiting that you are experiencing now, when I filled out an application for Ripley. I know what you are going through! I also wasn't planning to adopt another dog until at least the spring and wasn't planning to look around until then, but Ripley came into my life a little ahead of schedule! I agree with Aly though. If it is meant to be it will work out. If not, another special little boy is probably just around the corner. Having said all that, I hope you get him!!!
