Thanks Cliff! Losing animals always sucks, sorry about your losses also.


I definitely agree with you about them being marketing chances, along with just the social aspect of meeting people face to face that we wouldn't otherwise.


And yes, there was definitely some "bonding"...the little girl was fine when I first looked at her, but she was balled up and I wanted to get her stretched out so I could look her over better. Once I began to unball her, it didn't take long at all for her to decide to let me check out her teeth. I started to look at a second one on the table, but something about her attitude cracked me up and I went with her. Even if I'd pulled the other one out and gotten it all fiesty too, I still think I'd have picked the same one anyways.

Charlie
