I had been kind of cruising local rescue websites & the humane society for about 6 weeks. I was not intentionally been looking for a Harley "clone", but did I ever find the cutest little girl right before Christmas. She is a Shih Tzu/Poodle mix who is going by the name of Confetti by the moment. The rescue is usually at my local PetsMart on Saturdays, but I knew they would not be there yesterday. I was heading down there for lunch this afternoon, & about had a heart attack when I saw the rescue. I whipped into a parking place, ran out of the car as I could see that Confetti was with them. Rescue told me she was about 2, her paperwork from their vet says 7, which they disagree with. I will get her to my vet ASAP, & let him make the call about age. She is a love bug, just wants to cuddle. I went home & got Chew, took them for a little walk with no problems. I'm not sure Chew really knew she was there because of his vision, but she did bump into him a couple of times, & Chewy didn't react at all, kind of saying, "Oh, I guess there's another dog there". I've filled out all the paperwork & will pick her up Weds. on my way home from work. Thurs-Fri. are my days off, so I can be here to make sure introductions go ok, & she settles in. I'm thinking that she will be Arwen, after the elf princess in Lord of the Rings", but Winnie for short. I've got no pictures yet,l but check out the following link. Go to the "available" tab, 4th page, & Ms. Winnie (Confetti) is about 1/2 way down the page. I'll post my own pictures once she gets home.
It's a good thing I had filled out an on-line adoption application as those potential adopters take priority. The rescue folks told me that Confetti was the star attraction today, & practically everyone was looking at her.
