Did you get him?! Keep us posted! GOOD LUCK!

jenn1381 · 03-24-2009, 02:10 PM

Thanks for all the well-wishes and I will definitely keep you all posted. I have attempted to speed up the process by having a friend/co-worker over to do a home visit - she works for a rescue group here in town and often does home visits for other organizations, including loyal rescue. She is also one of my references, so I hope that having her vouch for me helps.

It's weird, but it really feels meant to be.. there's been so much happen, missed emails, lost internet connection, delays in responses on my part because I was out of town (twice!) and yet he's still available and I still have a chance, weeks later. He was even listed as "adoption pending" as they had an approved family who just never showed up to meet the little guy. Fate, perhaps? We shall see.

I'll update again tomorrow night after I speak with the lady from the rescue group... If all goes well next weekend might be a road trip weekend to go pick him up!

wooohoooo, it's looking good. Good luck and let us know right away.

So, the phone interview is done, and it went really well. She began calling my references right away, and is accepting my friend Shawna's home visit, so that speeds up the process a LOT! There is a lot of interest for Oliver, so it's still up in the air, and I'm concerned about what my vet will say as they only saw my last dog for a couple of years before we had to put him down. Shawna has gone into overdrive though, and is sending over the home visit forms as we speak.

I should know more within a few days, I'll update again when I hear from someone!

what a lucky day for you and Oliver

. I´m always glad if I hear that a rescued dog find a loving home. If you have picked him up, give him a big kiss from the YTmembers

Wish you a long long happy life together
