Kmarla, it is great to see you posting here. You and Sprite went through so much together. You are a great mom, that much is certain. I think you will know when the time is right. Keep your eyes and ears open. Nothing wrong with looking around, and then you won't feel pressured.
I looked and looked at puppies casually, applied to breed rescues, and eventually just knew when it was the right one.
