Today was spent waiting for the 'dog lady' to come. She is from the North East Rottweiler Rescue . We are actually working with For the Love of Dogs but they share a lot of info and help each other out. This woman is from the next town over so she did our home visit. We had no nurse, but the appointment was at 3:00 so we had plenty of time to tidy up and get the boys ready. We had Casey up in his chair but Colin wanted to watch his cartoons so he was on his spot in the living room.
I guess it went okay. There were a few questions that Gene answered and I wanted to kick him but I don't think they will deter us from adopting. She looked around and talked a bit about traits that we'd like/not like, some training issues, how we'd exercise her, etc. She stayed for a good half an hour and then checked out the yard and the partial fencing we have. I hope the yard isn't a deterrent because there's a lot of crap out there (Gene's crap) and everything looks pretty miserable with all the mud/debris and snow. So, she'll send her info to our organization and we hope to hear from them soon!
Oh, and she did recognize that the boys are 'complicated' and mentioned that if it were her organization she would probably bring the dog to us, here, instead of having us go to them. I would LOVE that because I'd really like to see how the dog may react to the medical equipment and the wheel chairs and the boys. So, we'll see!
