this is the second week dusty is in his new home & i couldn't be happier about it. although i miss him (more that i can express here) i've found fostering to be a service more than just adopting a shelter dog. if i can continue to do this for the next few years than i will feel quite good about that. i know i will need help, and as with most social services, i know i will burn out. that is why i am so grateful for lee (my wonderful man). he has jumped on board with this so easily & falls in love with these pups as easily as i do.

i'm currently reading, "The Culture Clash" by Jean Donaldson. if you care about training & dogs & behavior, then go get it. read it & teach it.

i'm listening to Joshua Radin & his new album "We Were Here". its very much a simon & garfunkul kind of thing. so if you are into that kind of thing, this might be right up your alley. i like him.

this puppy is for adoption at www.animalhaven.com. how can you not just totally fall in love?!
