Petfinder lists the dog as a female. The description suggests male so not sure which it is!

If all goes well, yes!!

Some things happen for a reason. DH & I were going to go look at a couple Great Dane puppies but we just couldn't do it. I miss my "big" dog and we had decided that we would wait until the spring to get our puppy GSD so I was rushing to find a big dog to fill the gap. I realized the Danes weren't right for us.

I guess I didn't realize HOW much I missed Riggs.

I had finally talked myself into not looking at Craigslist every hour or Petfinder every night and when I saw the posting for Joey, the young male at the same shelter. I clicked on the link to see the other dogs at the shelter and almost passed up her listing. The tumbnail photo in the picture - you can't even tell it's a dog.

But the name drew me - my bosses name is Cheryl. So I clicked the link and there was that face.

The picture at the top of this post is the one you first see when you check out her listing at petfinder. The look in her eyes got me first and then I noticed her ears.

We call them Goofy Shepherd Ears and Riggs used to be able to fold his just like that. In fact, if I talked to him in just the right baby-talk tone he would fold them for me.

So I posted her here then posted in the general rescue section to see if anyone in that area could test her with other dogs - especially little ones.

Myoung PM'd me and said the rescue she works with has a transport coming up THIS weekend from that area.

She also called the shelter and asked them to test Sheryl with other dogs - especially little ones. The girl at the shelter said they had a Chihuahua they would put in with her. They also put some treats in there as well! Sheryl totally ignored the Chi - even when it stole the treats!!

So, I called and gave them my credit card info and she is being spayed tomorrow and will (hopefully) be on her way to us this weekend!!

It all just fell into place so easily - like to was meant to be.

Of course it was meant to be. How amazing that everything worked out the way it did. I'm so happy for little Sheryl and for you and your hubby too, Lauri. One thing I didn't see you mention. Was she tested with Christmas lights wrapped around her? Riggs would expect her to take over his Christmas tree job. You'd better have a talk with this little one the minute she steps into her new home. Christmas is just around the corner!

And I think multi-colored lights would work best for her!

Personally I think white and gold lights with red ball ornaments.

I won't subject her to that ... right away.
