And if she's not right for Julee, let me know. My husband is back to talking about getting a dog for Chester.

I showed my husband the posting for Midnight...then he suggested I sent an email inquiring about him. Now he's suggesting we take a ride over there tomorrow...

HOORAY for you and HOORAY for Belle!!!

We went to see Midnight today. He is as sweet in person as his picture. We brought Chester to meet him and they seemed to get along pretty well. We filled out an application so now we'll wait and see what the shelter says.

 

[Chesterpal]

I'm so excited for you. You're going to have such fun.
We went and saw Midnight yesterday. He is a sweetie. He and Chester got along quite well. The kids just loved him. We filled out the adoption application so, now we're waiting to find out. The shelter said they already had 5 families look at Midnight. We should hear in a couple days. I don't want to get my hopes up too high. These things workout how they are supposed to right?

He's only 4 1/2 months. His owners gave him up because he was getting too big and they wanted a miniature. I can't imagine they had him long enough to get attached to him.

The shelter is closed on Mondays so I doubt we will hear anything today. I hope they let us know if they pick someone else. I know they will also do the Snip and Chip before we can take him home (if we get selected), also does anyone have opinons about changing his name (if we get selected). Is it too late or too confusing for a pup?
I think we do have a good shot at getting him. Our ace in the hole is that my husband works out of our house so he's home all day...(at least I think that's a selling point). :lol:

 

[Chesterpal]

That they send him home neutered is great. I'm happy to not have to go through the waiting on that.
I'm trying to be positive so I've decided if another home else gets selected at least he'll be somewhere other than the shelter and someone else will be lucky to have a doodle in their home.

Its still hard for me to believe the previous owners couldn't find someone else to take him.

Unitedrn, where in Illinois are you? Did you see the post about getting a romp together?

 

[Chesterpal]

I was amazed at that reasoning too. I guess they didn't do their research and see there is no guarantee on these guys sizes. He's a pretty energetic guy. He was barking in Chester's face and also trying to mount him. Kind of gutsy considering Chester is about 70 lbs bigger. He has a lot of personality.

 

[Chesterpal]

UGH! He's better off with a family that will care enough to train him and watch him to stay in the yard. Don't these people even consider CARS!

 

[Chesterpal]

I know just where you are. We're looking at Lakewood which is a Lake County Dog Park in Wauconda, April 29.

 

[Chesterpal]

We just got the call...Midnight went to another family. I guess as long as he's got someone that's all that really matters.

 

[Chesterpal]

As long as he has a good place to live and we have Chester it would be selfish to complain. I am a bit disappointed of course.
