As with Les, you'll know what's right. :)<BR/>Not everyone fosters forever and I have to say I agree with a lot of the comments. But in the end the decision is yours (well, Matt, Limo and Les's too) lolcdncowgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09055181472294995601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-258068166580945144.post-6213301250076943522008-08-16T16:32:00.000-04:002008-08-16T16:32:00.000-04:00I totally got what you were trying to say, and I s...I totally got what you were trying to say, and I say "keep her!" She really is the perfect dog for someone like you, because she isn't perfect, and not everyone can handle dogs with issues.<BR/><BR/>When we adopted our rescue dog, his bio specifically said that he must be placed with an experienced Aussie family, because he had some "issues." The rescue lady said that he would be one that she would keep if just the right home did not come a long. Thankfully we did :)<BR/><BR/>Let the pretty, non-quirky, easy to adopt out dogs go, and keep your new friend!Melaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08682815635702122191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-258068166580945144.post-49038974358746976212008-08-15T11:07:00.000-04:002008-08-15T11:07:00.000-04:00Denise!!! Fail fail fail! She looks so at home w...Denise!!! Fail fail fail! She looks so at home with Limo and with you! Believe me, it's been funny, watching various people scope out dogs for you...wanting you to have a "pretty" one. Peanut is pretty, but in a rough and tumble way. Since this is on your personal blog, she was pretty cantankerous at the kennel...along with Ms. Kadabra. I think you have the magic touch. I probably wouldn't have even said she had soft fur ;). I love the pic of her getting hosed down. I give you a lot of credit for all the fostering you have done. You have had some challenging dogs, and you have risen to the occasion...and given them a great shot at their new life. Peanut was waiting! Gotta' admire a dog with 100 plus races under her belt. I'd give her that!Maria Petershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13181409897573790565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-258068166580945144.post-47990286812089928672008-08-15T08:56:00.000-04:002008-08-15T08:56:00.000-04:00LOL, Oh don't get me wrong I think she's very cute...LOL, Oh don't get me wrong I think she's very cute, but as a "seasoned" greyhound person/ owner I feel like I should adopt kind of a not so pretty or perfect one:-) Leave those to the new adopters. Keeping Peanut will be the end of our back-to-back fostering so it's a big decision. I'll feel bad about not being able to foster much, but if I take in one with a lot of "charater" then I feel less guilty- maybe I should have explained that part better:-)Denise- LessIsMore17https://www.blogger.com/profile/11875671948514151680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-258068166580945144.post-62208870313110746862008-08-15T00:13:00.000-04:002008-08-15T00:13:00.000-04:00I think she's figured out what it is you're lookin...I think she's figured out what it is you're looking for and is trying to be "that dog". She doesn't know how to put on make up yet to cover up her boo boos, but really - who wants a dog all made up?<BR/><BR/>I'm very excited to meet her next week!Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10578530800813066368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-258068166580945144.post-13255150524590573232008-08-14T22:22:00.000-04:002008-08-14T22:22:00.000-04:00Awww c'mon..
