Will we be good enough?
This is a picture of “Betsy” a Labrador Retriever and Australian Shepherd mix.
Paige and I have been looking to rescue a dog for the last three weeks and this cutie was an immediate, “She’s the one!”
I’ve never adopted a dog before. I thought you just show up, pay the adoption fee and save a pup’s life. Boy, was I mistaken. In order to adopt her you must submit an application online where it goes through a pre-approval process. Then you arrange for a home visit, your references are checked, FBI background scan is performed, you give up some blood samples and then a pledge of your next born child if you don’t take care of the pup. And then you pay them $300 for this.
Oh God. While I appreciate the rescue shelter’s diligence, we are at the edge of our seats! Will we be good enough?

That is the cutest dog I have seen in quite awhile. Not that I surround myself with dogs on a consistent basis, but that’s still pretty impressive.
She is very sweet, isn’t she. No response yet! *sigh*
