Well drat. Still has we have said throughout, better to know these things up front than have to deal with them yourself down the road. That I think would be worse. The search continues. At least you know when that right match comes along that it really will be the right one.
Yay for the the teeth. I hope the next procedure goes just as smoothly and quick healing time. :) whoo hoo!
super big hugs!

it's the old Sonny & Cher song........and the beat goes on, and the beat goes on..........
Just imagine what a treasure must be waiting for you and the end of this lengthy hunt! That dog is there, just waiting for you to find him/her.
So glad the tooth surgery went so well. That's great news.:D

Okay, another candidate :) This time a small/medium sized shepard mix called Quincy. After lots of talking on the phone, after lots of questions (by me and the servicedog school) it is decided that she sounds just perfect. Her behaviour is examplary. She's very owner-oriented, social with all humans and animals but kind of stays to herself, a bit reserved because it's her nature not because she is scared or anything... Loves to fullfill tasks, very obedient, no hunting instincts whatsoever, cudlly with her owner, calm and stable... She'll turn 2 next month (in June), she's completely black, 45 cms/ 17.5 inches high and weighs 12 kilo's/26.5 lbs., a Yunah size dog :) You can see her pictures in my photoalbum.

She's a Polish stray that was rescued a year and a half ago, moved to The Netherlands, lived with a lady since then but now the lady suffers from severe depression and has decided it is best for Quincy to go life somewhere else because Quincy was suffering as well under the entire situation. So now she is in a temporary fosterhome.
I will go visit her next week, I do not know the exact date yet...and if the visit goes well, she'll go for her medical exam. So, another period of "wait and see" :)

She looks very calm doesn't she. Wow, check out those ears. You just know that she is right on top of everything going on around her.
Can't wait to see how the meeting goes!

Aparantly, she has this unique trade (Yunah had it too) that anything that isn't her business, she isn't bothered with :D If you will ask her to go get the ball, she'll go get the ball and if in the meantime the ceiling comes falling down, she couldn't care less....she was asked to go get the ball and nothing else :D So if she has no task to do, she will just lay quietly somewhere and observe...she won't mingle or participate.
And yes, she has HUGE, GIANT ears :eek: :D :eek: :D :eek: :D
Sas :)
Yehawwwww, we're going to meet Quincy the day after tomorrow, Wednesday :D
I am so exited,

Oh that is sooo exciting!! I can't wait to hear all the details of how goes.
Crossing fingers!

Ahhhh, today I visited Quincy with the servicedogschool trainer and well....she was jusr awesome! I am madly in love with her, she's perfect :D Now we have to wait for her medical exans and the moment she passes them, she'll come to live with me and I will personally train her :D
Pictures of our visit: ( http://www.k9cushings.com/forum/album.php?albumid=862 )
She was smart (picked up on a training session very fast), calm, enjoying herself during training and we had an instant connection :D It was heaven..now keeping my fingers crossed she'll pass her medical exams :)
Saskia :)
Oh Sas, I couldn't be happier for you. You two look adorable together and I hope it turns out to be a match made in heaven. Yay, you're going to have another baby to share your life with.
