sort of!! here's the story (it's longish!) i work with this lady that has three dogs, and a bunch of other animals...she's an animal lover and can't say no. anyway, she's had her three dogs for about a year now all together. she had one dog, got another dog 2 1/2 years ago, then the third a year ago. anyway, all was well until one of them started being super aggressive toward the other two a few months ago. so she's had some people help with trying to get the dogs to work things out (behavior type stuff) and it just isn't working. well, the other day i guess two of them got in a nasty fight and one ended up with a nasty cut, one lost a tooth, anyway, it was ugly. so she's decided she needs to part with one of her babies.
so she called me and asked if i had found a dog yet. she decided she was going to try and find a home for her best dog, since it would be easier to find a home for the well behaved dog versus the naughty dog. well, this is the dog she got 2 1/2 years ago and is practically her baby. she would rather find him a good home with someone she knows will take good care of him. so she called to see what i thought about taking tucker (how cute is that name!!). well, kerry isn't that keen on black labs (i don't know why, they are about the cutest dogs next to yellow labs!). so i asked cindi if we could maybe have tucker visit for a few days and see how kerry does with him (i know he will fall in love as soon as he sees him!) and then we will decide if we can take him. so she is bringing him over tomorrow night for a few days. tucker is already housebroken, and used to cindi's schedule of 13 hour shifts (same as mine) and does fine in his kennel while she's at work. it's like a perfect situation. you would never find a dog like that at the humane society where you know his background and how he behaves. i just hope that kerry will see how good of a dog tucker is. he has never had an inside dog and thinks that all dogs should stay outside. so it may be a long few days or a great few days!
wish us luck!!
