No More Dog

Just an update in case any of you were wondering about the status of the cute beagle we had found....

She just wasn't a good fit for us.  She tore up the front door's weather seal and scratched the wood varnish completely off in certain parts.  Once she learned how to dig a hole under the fence to get into our backyard, she'd just go to the front and roam the neighbor's yards and then when she wanted to come back, she'd scratch the front door.  She hated being out.  She'd scratch constantly including the screens on the back porch.  But inside, she'd have accidents and shed really badly.  Too bad b/c she was adorable.  And she was really good with the girls (except when she was eating).  

So we took her to the pound and prayed her owners would find her.  If they don't find a new home for her in 10 days, they'll call us back.  Maybe we'll try it again.  

Pam, you were right.  She was a wanderer.  And a barker/howler!

Thanks for the update, I was wondering how it was going. We have definitely learned that they are country dogs. They are as cute and sweet as can be though. I hope she finds a good home. And yes...they are definitely loud!!!
The girls look as adorable as ever with their ears pierced.

Probably a great decision. Even the best dog is SOOO much work. But you can tell the girls not to be too sad...there is a Turkish Rump Hound named Patches that can't wait to visit them this summer on the way to AL. ♥
