It's such a shame because shelters are supposed to be *helping* dogs by finding new, better homes. Instead, there are so many loopholes in their adoption system that the dogs can just as easily fall into the wrong hands...again. I know some kill shelters that even let the dog go unaltered. I'm just glad that the shelters over in my area are in *much* better condition and the BEBHS even requires a homecheck, I believe.

You know, if this dog were in show coat, he'd actually fit the standard quite well. His topskull is level and flat and I think the ears are placed correctly. His gaze is direct and bold, but not bulgy. Nice wide placed eyes. The mask is there, level topline, nice slightly bowed legs. His only faults (the ones that are really obvious) are his lack of wrinkle (it's too thin and weak) and his height- too tall compared to his length. I would adopt him if we had room. *sighs dreamily*
