Hooray for chemistry! Steph, I'm so glad you were able to get the distress under control, and I also appreciate the hell outta you. It was lovely seeing buffistas rally around. I think your plan is a good one.

I dropped Penelope at the rescue so a prospective owner could meet her at 2pm. It is 3 and I haven't heard anything. Fingers crossed that she found a home. If not, I'm happy to have her another night. If she is adopted, I may end up with a new foster tonight instead as some dogs are arriving this evening from a Kansas kill shelter.

She has been so low key, I wasn't too worried and she did GREAT! My only concern is that we did hear her howling as we came home. This from a dog who doesn't bark.

Oh god, I was at the vet today with Darb, and there was a hound in the next room who was NOT HAVING ANY OF IT. All the howling and caterwauling and the glavin. It sounded like someone was torturing a walrus.

Fingers crossed for Penny! She looks so sweet. I'm really glad you're able to do this, especially now.

Fingers indeed crossed for Penny.

Hounds are so vocally *dramatic*. Though, the most musical of dogs, I suppose. Still, volume and range.

Cedar, my dad's hound mix, sounds like she's being murdered when you give her a bath. Given that she likes rolling in stinky things, she gets murdered frequently.

My only concern is that we did hear her howling as we came home.

I used to have upstairs neighbours who adopted a husky with separation anxiety & who howled the whole time they were gone. If we hadn't had a neighbour who worked from home they may have never known for a long time. They did manage to train it out of her.

My only concern is that we did hear her howling as we came home.

I did see my next door neighbor this afternoon and asked him. He said they didn't hear anything.

The lady liked Penelope but wants her granddaughter to meet her before officially adopting her, so she is back with me for tonight and hopefully off to a forever home tomorrow.

Now I have about an hours worth of work more tonight and then a couple of hours of school work. Wheeeee.

I hope Penny gets a new home! Pennys are good pets.

My Penny caught a baby snake that was in the house. It died (I think) when I took it out. I keep wondering what she would bring home if she were allowed outdoors unsupervised.

I'm very very tired and I think it's PMS. Not sleepy just feeling exhausted and I haven't done much.

M invited me to Sunday to a joint birthday party for his sister and niece. So I'm going to that, probably come back. Not really wanting to stay over on Monday. Timewise it's not bad, it's just under an hour BUT It's down the Blue Ridge Escarpment and so often the suggested speed limit is 15 miles an hour and there is the issue of cyclists so it's more of an issue with driving.

Suzi, you're an inspiration. Work, pups, family, school--it's so impressive!
