When I lost my fur friend I found a great empty space in my heart. I looked at all the dogs in need of a forever home on Pet Finder. You need to register at Pet Finder before you can get a response. But once you do, they will notify you when dogs you are seeking come available. I requested information on several dogs and within a few days got a response. You have to remember that most of these puppie-dogs are in a foster home with working people and be considerate of their time. The foster mom of the small puppie that I was most interested in let me know that she is not quite ready for adoption because she is not eating well and we made arrangements to see the puppie at a later time so that the puppie could decompress. I am quite pleased at the consideration that the foster mother has for the puppie. I know that when the puppie is ready for friends she will call me. I will let you know how it goes when I can get the puppie. I am very excited and hopeful that it will be a good fit.
