Gearing up...

Well yesterday I did a "run through" of sorts. I placed one of our vehicles close to the kennel, blocked out most of the front windows, so Teddy wouldn't see me moving, and visualized my rope pull. I thought I had better move the vehicle closer as soon as possible so he has a chance to adjust to THAT change. Today I will practice pulling the door hoping the temporary door holders work as I think they will and the stops I put inside will hold until I can get around and latch the door and tie it shut. I am just so worried that if I miss this opportunity one may not present itself for a long time-I don't think I could deal with that. Really high anxiety!

I'm waiting to hear back from a few of Teddy's friends to see if they can be available Monday morning. Even though I myself participate in Scottie & Westie Rescue, I've never had to enter a kennel and attempt to put a collar/leash on a fearful animal-I am hoping the experts will be able to help here. That is way out of my realm of experience, and I wouldn't want to risk traumatizing him more or worse, his escaping.

He is very late coming for breakfast this morning, as he hasn't arrived just yet. I'll just keep positive and say he'll be here soon.

As far as the rescues no definite responses yet, but we'll work with him until we can find a good placement with one if need be. At least we'll know where he is and how he is doing for the time being, and we can continue to provide up dates to all of you too!

But again...we don't have him yet, however I like to think positive...so keep those prayers and good karma flowing our way and perhaps in a few days......................

Did I mention the first printing of T-Shirts are in? Thanks to those of you who already purchased in support of our boy!
