wishful thinking

This is Riley. He is in a rescue. due to a divorce. This dog just kills me. Can you fall in love with a photograph? It would take me 7 hours to drive to where he is. Then you know they have to approve you. I'm crazy about him. I think he's the cutest thing I ever laid eyes on. I'd let him sleep on the bed. He looks like a leaner and a grinner and just the right kind of a guy. How am I going to ask my husband if I can go on a 7 hour trip and look at a dog and hope that we fall madly in love at first sight? But you know it's only with dogs that it happens that way. I sure wish there was a real Santa Claus or a good fairy or some magical genie in a bottle. I just can't quit looking at him. Riley.

Does your hunny read your blog?
From one rescuer to another, he looks like YOUR dog. Just like I knew Carson was my dog, and even now with the house full of grandkids and company, even with me gone for days at a time, he knows too.
Your hunny needs to read your blog today.
A 7 hour road trip can be an adventure!

You have such a tender heart. Here's something to help you:

He is probably already adopted by a little old lady who will spoil him rotten.

He drools.

He hogs the bed.

He licks your feet.

Heidi said...

I say GO FOR IT! I would make the trip with you if I lived closer!!!

Farmchick is right. Life is too short. Go get this dog. He's calling your name.

just get in the car and drive... what are you waiting for? its destiny, now just do it...

signed sleep deprived and frazzled with her 3 new dogs, which incl-ed a 9 hour drive to pick up the 2 pups from an animal shelter. i may be a total a wreck and the house in shambles with this new hunk of fur, but its worth it...

shh don't tell them~

now get in the car~ oh and prequalify before you drive, its like taking a test these days, i sent in a 10 page essay with pics from my first childhood dog on up, it paid off, i really had to sell myself first!

riley needs you, he is waiting...
