So... I've been bad about updating our blog as of late, and much has happened during that time. First of all - We got a puppy! Well, sort of. We fostered a puppy. ... For 3 days. :( Her name was Rosie and here she is sitting in her favorite spot in the apartment.
Because we technically live in an apartment that doesn't allow dogs we didn't want to risk getting a permanent one in case we were forced to get rid of it, so we decided to try fostering. When we agreed to fostering Rosie we told the volunteers that we needed a well behaved and quiet dog or it would never work. Ha ha. We took her home a week and a half ago on Saturday. Sunday we left Rosie home when we went to church and came home to this.
Oh well. So we decided, no more soft things in the crate for Rosie. Then Monday night we heard a bark while we were falling off to sleep. To our sadness we realized Rosie had been whining and barking while we were out, and that was NO good. Tuesday we had to leave her once again on her own while I went to work and Josh went to school. We decided to do something about the naughty business once we got home. When Josh got home he stumbled upon this. :)
Naughty naughty puppy. (She pushed the floor of the crate out, peed all over the hardwood floor, pulled the blanket that had been covering the crate into the crate and started ripping it to pieces.) Long story short, we took Rosie back to her kennel that afternoon. She was a very nervous puppy and really hated the city. When we took her back we realized why.
This was where Rosie had been currently living. I would never want to live in the city either. (Pictures don't really do it justice, especially from the car.)
These pictures are actually from two days ago. We went back to visit Rosie (who was actually a happy dog here) as well as volunteer to help walk other puppies that live at the kennel there.
It's absolutely beautiful and we really had fun walking these other GIANT pups.
Can you believe Buttercup here is an actual puppy?
Don't worry here. The one jumping on my back is the mom. (Not a boy.)
Um... his head is twice as big as mine.

We've come to find that most dogs are bad dogs. Even if they aren't being bod right now, they will be later. It's too bad that you couldn't keep her longer but the city is hard for a big dog like that. Maybe you could get a smaller dog and teach it to use the litter box? Anyway, I love your pictures of the city. Virginia is a really pretty place.
