(22,480 posts)at the shelter the woman asked me all sorts of questions, which she had "the answers" to and when I got one wrong she would just ask more. Like the name of the previous dog I adopted I had changed her name so when she asked me who I had adopted she "concluded" that I was lying for some reason. I had also adopted a 16 year old chihuahua from a different shelter knowing that he was just going to spend his twilight years with me and when he became so senile I brought him to this place to be put down because I didn't have $250 it would cost to take him to a vet. Well they wrote down that I turned in a dog that was in "very poor condition" even thought I told them that he needed to be euthanized. First it made me think of how long they made him suffer before they put him down since they thought he was a return and second it just pissed me off that they would write such a thing.
So in order to get Paco, (my male chihuahua) they made someone come to my home to check to see it I treated my pets good. It scared the crap out of me because I thought they would take my other chihuahua, Peanut.
But I finally got the OK and got Paco. Now I have Paco and Peanut and I love them with all my heart. And thankfully this time they are both younger, (I had adopted other older dogs) so I will get to spend a good long time with them.
Paco is on the left and Peanut is on the right. My two babies.
