I just had a phone call from my local Rescue... a 3 year old basset boy needs a home.

He's already had 2 homes in his short life, and not happy ones either. He was left alone a lot of the time, and made a lot of noise and so was muzzled. He was also seen as too boisterous. He's apparently very skinny also He's been in homes that don't understand bassets.

I'm going to take Snoopy and visit him tomorrow morning, and if all goes well, his third home with me will be his forever home.

I actually can't sleep now, thinking of this poor boy. He's been in kennels for the last three weeks, and I just want to give him a cozy bed and a big hug.

I know there's potential there for him to be hard work, but I have the time and patience andwant to give him a nice life for a change.

I think it's almost decided that he's coming home with me

Jeepers, we're all exhausted from twisting your arm. I was getting tired from begging you to consider this.
Lot's of luck, we're rooting for you guys!

I think the only reason he's not here now is that it's after 10 p.m. and it's a bit of a drive away....

Snoopy is dead to the world, unaware of what's happening... Snoopy will be 2 years old tomorrow. One hell of a birthday present for the little guy!

I felt just like you after seeing Belvedere at the humane society. They made me wait to get him until the next day and I couldn't sleep a wink. All I could think of was him in that cage thing, where he had been for two weeks. I was there first thing the next morning By the time morning came, I KNEW he had to be mine. No doubt at all.

Go get him! ...and keep us posted
