Waiting for George...

So as I mentioned we are getting a dog. More to the point we are adopting a retired racing greyhound. His name is going to be George. We are getting him from the Greyhound Pets of Atlantic Canada (gpac). I have been really into Grey's since I met Steve, Melissa and Dave's dog, three years and a half years ago. He was so cool. So we have talked about it on and off. More on in the past few months. Now that we have made a decision about how we want to progress with our family it seemed like a good time to do something positive for ourselves. So here we are, about to be George parents. I am really excited and nervous. It will be a big adjustment. George is not meant to replace the child we are not having or getting, he is a baby in his own right but he is not a replacement. We are going to the kennel this week to find out which hound is the one meant for us. Like I said I am excited but nervous. It will be a big shock to the cats. Mango will likely be fine but Tikka is going to be pissed. The dog will have gone to cat school at the kennel but the cats will have had NO exposure to dogs. It should be interesting.
Stay tuned!
