And The Search Goes On For Our Next Canine Companion – Part I


Walter, a very handsome Australian Shepherd

I decided to document our search for our new addition to the family since it seems like others are going through the same thing. Anyway, I filled out the first application on August 2020; then in September 2020; and finally in January 2021; the applications were to foster and adopt a doggie.

When it comes to breed , I’d like a Pit Bull, Rottweiler, German Shepherd, Australian Shepherd or Dogo Argentino. Watch and see, we might end up with the smallest Chihuahua ever!

One thing I am really not looking for is to adopt a puppy. Puppies get adopted very fast while older dogs linger in shelters for a long time. I will write about senior dogs on another post. With that being said, I’d love to get a dog that is, at the youngest, 3 years old. Watch and see, we might end up with a rambunctious puppy. No!!

Well, let’s see what’s in store for us. Stay safe and warm.

  1. What a great idea to document your process. Good luck, whether it’s a 4 lb. chihuahua or otherwise (we’re keeping our fingers crossed for the ‘otherwise’ but know you just never can be 100% positive of what works best or appeals most). πŸ•

      Thanks! I know. Life is like a box of chocolate, you never know what you’re going to get. I believe that is from Forest Gump. Great movie. I will keep you posted. Stay safe.
