Instead of editing the last post, I decided to post about the change of plans.  The prospective home is too sketchy by both my judgment and the rescue guy’s judgment, so he’s not going to check it out, and he was going to come and take Siena tomorrow morning and put her in a kennel until he could find her a foster home because he doesn’t want to have her at his home because he doesn’t think she’d get along with his alpha female Husky (because Siena is an alpha female Husky too), but R relented and said he doesn’t want to see her in a kennel, so we can keep her for one more week while the rescue guy tries to find her a foster home in Sacramento, because he said that due to all of the foreclosures and housing crunch crap, there are no foster homes in the Bay Area.

So, that was a really long run-on sentence.  Siena is here for one more week.  Please, if you know anyone who wants a dog, who does not have any other small animals in the house (fish are ok!, and other dogs are most likely ok, but they’d have to meet, and different cities have different limits on the number of dogs allowed), please let me know.  She is a wonderful dog.  She’s great with kids — she’s very gentle and light on her feet.  She is in great health.  The shedding is totally manageable with the Furminator.  She could be good for a first-time dog owner.  She’s quite mellow most of the time and doesn’t demand much attention, although she loves walks and trips to the dog park.  She needs a good home with people who will love her and take care of her and walk her and take her to the dog park and appreciate her crooked smile.  Did I mention she has a crooked nose?  It’s probably because her jaw was broken when she was a puppy and it healed crooked.  She had a rough life before she was rescued.  I promised myself when we adopoted her that the rest of her life would be good.  So, we just need to find her a good new home…let me know if you hear of any, k?
