KingCanuteIAm · 07/04/2009 20:51

Aww, how exciting

I take it you are well prepared for walking your legs off on a daily basis?

PurplePillow · 07/04/2009 20:51

Awww Trinity thats lovely

When do you think you will be able to bring him/her home?

Woohoo a playmate for Kezia

TrinityWino · 07/04/2009 20:54

oh yes we are
but a little afraid I wont know how to make it feel loved

tis not definite yet but we will be getting a dog soon

ilovemydogandMrObama · 07/04/2009 20:55

So exciting!!!

stillenacht · 07/04/2009 20:57

oh how lovely - i am v jealous!

Tn0g · 07/04/2009 21:00

How very exciting.

We recently got ourselves a collie, a rescue dog, who is just the most gorgeous, loving, gentle dog imaginable.

TrinityWino · 07/04/2009 21:02

oh I wish it was definite but there is one other family that have walked her. They walked her today but didn't reserve her
we are meeting her tomorrow and if we like her and the other family haven't come back to them then we can reserve her

and bloody quickly build a fence

TrinityWino · 07/04/2009 21:04

meeting him not her
he is at a canine rescue centre at the mo

been caged 14 hours a day for the last two months as the previous owner had a long hours job

PurplePillow · 07/04/2009 21:07

Oh the poor love

The sooner you get him the better

Just give him loads of attention and cuddles and groom him daily, will all help him feel loved and at home with you

TrinityWino · 07/04/2009 22:03

I am going to be sooo upset if the other family ring up and do somehting tomorrow
tbh not sure hpw it works

they have met him but didn't do anything but what if they change their mind before we see him

bella29 · 08/04/2009 08:53

keeping it all crossed for you

TrinityWino · 08/04/2009 08:57

thanks bella

I am worrying a little about it all now
I can see myself reserving the little darling and then worrying about it still having to saty in kennels for a day or two

I want to bring it home and start to love it and make it secure
god I think I'm too silly for all this

we walked a dog from the same place for dd1s birthday to help
They welcome volunteers to help exercise the dogs and I feel bad that he is still in kennels but we couldn't have that one
he is a lurcher with some deerhound in and is bigger than dd2 who is four on friday
he was also not toilet trained and older than we wanted but tbh the size was just too much without anything else

bella29 · 08/04/2009 09:05

I know - we got a rescue dog and had to wait a few days for her to be vet checked, which seemed like an eternity. And I kept thinking about other ones we had seen that day.

You're not being silly. I'd be feeling exactly the same

TrillianEAstraEgg · 08/04/2009 09:08

Fingers crossed!

Puppypuppypuppypuppy!

TrinityWino · 08/04/2009 11:51

not long now!!!!!!

we will be leaving at 12.30

get there about 1pm

numptysmummy · 08/04/2009 11:56

Is it all def now? I want a new lurcher like the one you described - my old one died last year aged 16. Dh says no more dogs - but we do have 3 already

MitchyInge · 08/04/2009 11:58

extreme excitement!

what do you think he is crossed with? I hope springer spaniel

TrinityWino · 08/04/2009 12:00

well not definite till we get there and see him but all looking very good

I'm trying to be very cool and remember that it may not happen but he is just so lovely and would be a fab dog for us

psychomum5 · 08/04/2009 12:01

TrillianEAstraEgg · 08/04/2009 12:05
