So let me preface this by acknowledging that I’m fully aware that I’m a dumb-arse
An idiot
Glutton for punishment
And a sucker
OK?
Good
So anyway, we went looking at puppies!!
We decided that we’re fucking nuts that maybe Fluffy needed a friend
A sister maybe
Kind of like how we were when Miss 6 was little
And we decided to try and give her a sibling
And we ended up with Miss 4
No one gets hit by lightening twice, right?
.
Anyhooo
We knew we didn’t want a small dog that Fluff would squash
Or a yappy dog that I would kill
And we wanted a girl this time
And we knew we wanted to get it from a shelter
A rescue dog
No more million dollar puppies from the pet store for us suckers
And while we found a lot of shelters that had Great Pyrenees dogs
None had puppies
And we really want one we can train from the beginning
Like we sucked at did with Fluffy
So we didn’t find any pure Great Pyr pups
But we did find this one
Her name is SLUSHY
Which we would have to change, because we’re obviously a family that would insist on a REALLY cool, tough name
Like Fluffy *ahem*
Anyhoo
Slushy is 11 weeks old
And she’s half Great Pyrenees
And are you ready for it???
And half Saint Bernard
You know, like those ones in the movies?
*Please go back and read first 4 lines*
As diamond said
We already have a house full of slobber & drool from him
And dog hair
How much difference can it make with a 2nd dog?
And I’m like, uh, how about DOUBLE the difference buttwad??
But realistically, the final call has to be Diamond’s
‘Cause when I’m on tour
He’ll be the one here with 2 kids and 2 horses dogs
.
So because Slushy is a rescue/shelter dog
We went out to the adoption show that was held yesterday
That we knew she’d be at
.
We got to hold her
Check her out
We took Fluffy with us so he could sniff her butt check her out too
Needless to say, we all fell in love with her
And wanted to take her home right then and there
But here’s the catch
We filled out adoption papers for her
And so did 10 other mother fuckers families!
So it turns out there’s other idiots out there who want a ginormous pet too
.
And now we wait
For the ‘powers that be’ to go over our application
And decide where the best home for Slushy would be
And no, I didn’t know this is how it all would go down
But I’m a dork, and I didn’t check out everything completely beforehand
I just thought, we’d see her, and if we loved her, we’d get to have her
Way to break your kid’s hearts go ME!
So now I have 3 babies 2 little girls who have been asking me non-stop, ALL DAY
Did they ring?
Did they pick us?
Do we get to keep Slushy?
Does Fluffy get a sister?
And while it’s doing my head in a bit
I’m as anxious as they are
Awww…I don’t know why I always read your blogs backwards from latest BUT I do…I know the ending already…I am now “Slushy” too…*sniff*
