No Puppies for Me!!

No Puppies for me! Nope Nope Nope! Even though this little red faced boy stole my heart this weekend! I wanted so badly to keep him but I know adopting a puppy comes with a whole lot of responsibility that I can’t handle right now. Mostly it’s the financial committment that I am not ready for! Having two jobs doesn’t help (even though I could take him to work at one of them.)

A rescue friend was in from out of town with lots of puppies. She asked if I’d like to take home a litter of border pups for the night. How could I possibly turn that down? What was a litter of 8 border collie pups turned into 2 border pups and 2 lab mix puppies. The labs were a bit older but I had space to crate the baby borders overnight and leave the lab puppies in an xpen in the kitchen. I didn’t get much sleep and I mopped my floor a few times. I didn’t care though! It was so much fun to have puppies for a few hours!!

I fell in love with this little boy:

I named him Cash. His parents were supposedly farm dogs from somewhere down near richfield. I bet he’d be a great little worker and already loves toys and tug and treats! When I went to return the puppies I could not bear leave him behind. So I kept him a few more hours. I took him to meet my friends at Flyball Practice but no one there wanted to adopt him. I knew deep down I couldn’t make the committment to keep him so I took him back to the rescue yesterday afternoon. I did have a lot of fun playing with him yesterday!
