A bit of a possible snag has emerged. According to the shelter's rules, an unfixed dog cannot be adopted out until it is fixed. They'll do the operation on-site, but the vet who does it only comes by once or twice a week. So... If the dogs that catch my fancy happen to be already fixed, then they'll come home with me on Friday. If not, it may be a few more days. We shall see.

The best-laid schemes....

Fixed? Why would they have broken puppies? ;-)

Actual, here at our local animal shelter, the cost of the neutering is donated by a local vet. (That helps to keep the cost of adoption down.) We made arraignments for the neutering when we adopted our cats, and we were able to take them home with us. (Of course, maybe they were just full up with cats and needed the space.)

Do you have a preference of males or females? The names you mentioned earlier sound more like male names to me.

It has been almost a year since we had to put down Stinky. I find I miss him more than I thought I would.

Thanks - Peter

Hm. I don't have a conscious preference, but all of the dogs I've lived with as an adult have been male. I dunno.

I still have occasional flashes of grief. The oddest things can remind me.
