The countdown is now on... we got a call from Mickey, who has been our contact person at the Carolina Animal Protection Society, and she told us we will have our home visit on Wednesday afternoon. Which means after that, she will have her appointment to get spayed on Thursday and we will pick her up on Saturday!! We have already been reading a doggy training book and have bought all her toys and crate and doggy beds and everything. It will be a really long week but the next blog you see will be about us bringing her home to our house! Until then we will just be admiring her pictures and thinking of a new name for her. Feel free to send suggestions... she's small but thinks she's a big, tough daredevil and is also very adventurous. These are our favorite pictures:

Can't wait to hear how she does! If you haven't already picked up "The Other End of the Leash" by Patricia McConnell (or any of her other books) - try to get your hands on a copy. She's a GREAT writer and an excellent animal behaviorist. She gives fun and interesting insight into the canine psyche.
We also learned a ton of useful, everyday dog information from "Dogs for Dummies" by Gina Spadafori. It's the only book in the "Dummies" series that we've found useful.
And, "Childproofing Your Dog" by Brian Kilcommons is a VERY short but useful book - even for dogs who don't have human brothers or sisters (but, of course, expect to have siblings some day)!
