I almost brought home this little one today.
She's an approximately twelve-week-old husky or malamute who was found on the side of a road. I fell in love with her the minute I saw her sweet face. She's got one brown eye and one blue, just like my current pup! She was hungry, tired and covered in fleas and ticks. She was mellow and just lied there while I went over her getting all the bad bugs off. After her bath she almost fell asleep wrapped up in a towel in my arms.
I was so close to bringing her home for a trial run tonight but ultimately decided I shouldn't. It was a hard decision (just look at that face!), but I feel it was the right one. It would be one thing to take in either of the exs' dogs whose personalities I already know, but a puppy is a totally different story. I'm not ready to train another pup. I like how my current dog is totally housebroken and not at all destructive. I'm definitely not ready to train another pup. She'll find a good home with someone who can give her all the time she needs.
In other news, here are some updates: I am not pregnant. The roommate's sister and baby are not moving in. She and I are back to our old awesome roommate ways now. The ex-bf and I never took that day trip, but maybe this weekend or next. I broke my lawnmower and almost chopped off my thumb, but not to worry... there's a new heavy duty swirly whirligig in town, and all my digits are in tact!
