Last week, Mom had to have Snoodle-dog put to sleep. (Little guy had a rapid onset of senile dementia and the vet thinks he may have had a stroke the night before she took him in.)
Not surprisingly, she wants another dog, probably two. So, today we headed to the Washington Animal Rescue League to check things out. The dog she had initially been interested in was a no-go. Little guy was completely oblivious to anyone around him. Interested in what was happening with the other dogs, but absolutely no acknowledgement of the fact we were standing right in front of him trying to get his attention. I think she was kinda bummed about that. But, I am sure it won’t be long before she finds the perfect dog.
I was surprised at how few shepherd mixes they had - lots of terrier and hound mixes, though. However, I completely fell in love with Carter, below:
Mocha
Sugar
Scooter
Midas - a purebred Shiba Inu. Beautiful dog, they have had to amputate one of his legs, and danged if he doesn’t bounce around just fine without it.
