An older rescue is definitely something I'd consider...if and when, of course. The only thing that I'm not so sure of is that some of the shelters have vey strict rules about who they give dogs to...require a large fenced-in yard and regular house visits for a time and all that. Makes me nervous.

Meanwhile...I'm back with my own "rescue". Well...not really. But I'm supposed to find a home for Fiona's brother, Fritz. He was Mom's dog...and Dad doesn't feel like they can really take care of him and they don't want him...and I don't think I could handle two dogs, especially not two dachshunds, which is why all this "planning" is just dreaming. Dad did a little bit of trying to place him, but didn't have much success...so he's having me try it and having me keep him for now. I'm looking up dachshund sites...will probably start there.

He's crying a little right now. Doesn't know why he's been taken away from home, poor little guy.

I'll try to get some pictures later.

I'm ho-ome!

Right now, just glad to be back. It was a great, but exhausting, trip. Will post some mountains later.
