Thank you Daniela...This is what you do in life...you're an Angel. I remembered this place because of you...Hubby and I had been teasing each other for a while now about getting another pet...a "someone" special. Yesterday, we were out doing the usual shopping, eating out stuff SEMI-old married folk do on Saturdays when SOMEHOW...and I'm making a long story short here....we ended up at Fuzzy Friends Adoption and Rescue Center. We had seen this newspaper clipping about a dog named Buddy but never thought he'd still be there...we went in. We were SO surprised! It was Clean, decorated...flowers everywhere...animal toys and mats...nice sized cages....and Buddy. The volunteer kept trying to get us interested in other dogs but we'd found the one we needed....Buddy. The dogs all around him were barking their poor little heads off but not Buddy. He was too busy looking at us with that special look in his eyes..."Will You Love Me?"
This is the Director...and I'm SO sorry I can't remember her name...I was in a daze...She has the 8 acre place decorated Wonderfully! Outside pens for the animals are Immaculate! Toys and fluffy beds and misters for the Texas heat! Volunteers Everywhere. AND...NO ODOR!! Anywhere!! Nada!!
Hubby and I were checked for unsavory acts of something...The interviewer wanted to draw blood for drug testing and and the Doctor wanted an organ donation...Hahaaaa....not really...just teasing...BUT they will be calling our Vet tomorrow to see if we've ever been bad parents to our other pets. Buddy has been De-Manned...shot full of antiviral goodies....and CHIPPED! I don't like That part...I told the lady I was a Conservative dadgumit!!!Hahahaa....She didn't care. Said she was one herself but Buddy was Only leaving there with his Chip....or not at all. She's one tough Woman! SO, I guess they will be able to find us when we make a run for the Border...Northern Border!! We wouldn't go anywhere Near the Southern one! Now we frigging...WAIT! She said if we haven't heard from them by Tuesday to call....With a face like this and they ask us to WAIT!!?! I really DO think I could take that old gal but we wouldn't get very far with that darn CHIP in him would we....so I guess we wait...sigh.
Hopefully we'll see you soon little Buddy. That is unless our Vet stands in our way! I can hear him now..."The Staas'???"
"Who the hell are They?"

Hey, this is a perfect Mom's Day post! A new fur baby! And BUDDY!!! That was our dear sweet dog's name. It's a wonderful, down to earth name. Oh course, his other name was "move" because he was always herding us, LOL. I know that you'll be able to pick him up soon and give him a loving home!
So, your vet has to vet you ... so to speak. What about fingerprints, DNA, financial audit etc? Phew! :)
I am LOVE with his face !! What a lucky little guy to be rescued/adopted by you to love on !! :) Oh, I just can't wait to hear more Buddy stories !! :)
Happy Mother's Day !!
Buddy is a sweetheart and lucky to be joining your family.
Can't wait to see more pictures.
He is absolutely the CUTEST!!! He is a lucky little guy to be adopted by you two!!! I'm sure that you will be "approved"! Can't wait to hear all of the new stories about his homecoming!! Congratulations on your new little fur baby!! Hope you had a marvelous Mother's Day!!
Thanks Guys! I'm sitting here at work now waiting for that danged phone call...
And YES Ac! I see why they want to know SO much about us but they said they even come and make house calls to check on their living arrangements! Oh well, I'll put up with it...as the saying goes, Nothing to hide...
I'll post when I finally get him...

I never realized they put you through checks to see that you are a reliable owner. Very good idea. I have lots of fun with my dog, she is my main company all week.
buddy is so cute!! we rescued our dog willow too. it's so great that you are doing this. i can't believe you have to wait! good luck.
Donna I keep saying "oh" over and over. when I saw the name alone I was hooked. oh my. you have yourself a cutie pie. his face is adorable. even the way he curls up to sleep is adorable. I'm happy you've found each other because this is the start of a beautiful friendship. I can just tell. and so what really if they are strict in their adoption requirements? I'm certain they are that way because of lessons learned, and that's a good thing. they love animals and are not going to take any risks - the animals deserve better. I love that you're adopting this beautiful little doggie. Donna you have a heart of gold.
I can't wait for all the photos!!!
{{{hugs}}}
Aww buddy's got a sweet face! Hope you can bring him home soon!!
Aww he's so cute Donna. I see you posted a picture of Crystal with him so know the story has a happy ending for you all, especially Buddy!
Oh my gosh Donna..he is adorable. I am sooooo happy for you. He looks like he was put on earth just for you. I am so excited. You have made my day.
Dusty is an awesome name. I always say that "We don't pick them, they pick us", and it sounds like that is exactly what Dusty has done to you. He aint no dummy..haha.
xoxo
