Up and running...

My computer has had all kinds of problems. I finally have everything back up and running. It has been weeks since I checked the blogs. Both this blog and Katie's. I am enjoying reading up on all the events.

A new dog is coming to our home today. We are going to see if Oreo and Samoa can cope with the possibility of a new dog. We are hoping to rescue this fella. He is a German Shorthair Pointer. Solid brown. His owner abandoned him at the vet when he didn't want to pay for his needed surgery to remove a sock from his stomach. He is only four and a half.

Since the surgery the dog has been in a kennel. And since German Shorthair Pointers do not kennel well, he is deteriorating. The kennel finally called the GSP rescue to take him. They did.

He looks sickly but really only needs a home and a time to recover and rest comfortable.

Joe and I are willing to take this fella because he is only two years younger than Samoa. So our commitment to dogs will not be much more than it is now.

If Samoa and Oreo want to rip this dog's head off, the dog will go back to the rescue. Case closed. We are praying that they will adjust.

The dog looks so much like a German Shorthair Pointer. But usually they are speckled. It is funny to see a solid one. But he looks like he has the potential of being very beautiful when he is healed.

We will see what happens....I will keep everyone posted.
