I feel you! It is so hard waiting. When I was looking before I found Tibbe, I would see a darling dog, sign up for it, I was usually second on the list for some darn reason - every time, visit it each day, and wait until the waiting period was over, show up the morning the dog was to be released to those on the list and the person just ahead of me ALWAYS showed up and got the dog - the dog that in my head was mine, mine, mine. All except one time, AC told me the person was from a rescue and that they always come first thing in the morning each day to claim the small dogs like Yorkies, Poodles, Maltese, Chi's and sign up first for them.
Still, as hard as you try not to, you still start thinking of names, supplies you'll want to get, which bed to get, a little coat in just that size, and all of that. It would break my heart over and over. Finally gave up and called a breeder I knew who had some dogs another breeder had relinquished to her to place just the week before and had now been vetted, groomed, settled in a bit and were now ready for homes. Tibbe was one of those dogs! I was so happy to have my dog and stop the heartbreaking process of looking and hoping and getting so disappointed.
