I dunno, I always think of shelters as not having enough room, but it looked to be about at a quarter capacity and a lot of the dogs there were already adopted and just waiting pick up. This is a no kill shelter as well.

Yay puppy.
I wonder if the rise of more breed specific rescue societies means that unwanted dogs are being directed to more places other than general shelters.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Or maybe people can find the specific breed of doggie they want by searching shelters via the intertubes....

My local SPCA never seems to have more than a handful of dogs for adoption at a time. Cats on the other hand...

A second dog to go with are currently dog Thor (dog of thunder). It's going to be an energetic little Beagle that's going to be named Fenris.
You know, Gud, you name a dog Fenris and somebody's gonna get their hand bit off.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I got my hand bitten repeatedly over the weekend, by black swans. Though one of them proved well-mannered and while it fed I wound up with a black swan's head in the palm of my hand.

Get bitten by a black swan once, shame on you. Get bitten by a black swan twice, shame on me.
