Went back to TJ OConnor shelter today to see the GSD she said would be available. At first as we looked around for him we wondered if she was wrong and he wasn’t there, then we peeked in a window and there he was. Den pretty much gasped. We got to see him in a greeting room, and Den was just grinning ear-to-ear. It’s a purebred GSD, 1 year old male. A little older than what we were originally looking for, but he’s all puppy. He’s huge, though - probably twice as tall as Oreo, but he’s lanky (with huge paws), so right now I’d place him at around 60lbs. He’s gonna be big. We put in an app on him, they told us to call tomorrow morning to find out if we’ve been accepted. It looks pretty good - we asked about their regulations on adopting out to people without fences, she said it wasn’t a problem. So the only hitch might be the Vet reference, but since I included mine we should be okay. So let’s hope for the best! He’s one cute dog… for a GSD. =P
