Well, guess what I did today.   I went to the Humane Society to put my name in on this little bundle, Nicky.   He actually had two applications on him so I didn't think I would be able to get him.  To top that off, I had not filled out an application to adopt and my memory was that it would take a couple of day.

Mary Margaret was sweet enough to come back at noon, she volunteers to help clean and all  on Saturday mornings.  Yoko brought him in and Mary and I visited with him for a while.   He was very shy and seemed to be waiting for Yoko.   Mary said that Yoko is SO good with the critters and I know how hard it is for an animal that has been in a family to adjust and not be afraid.

Anyway, I filled out the app and they said do you want to take him home today.   I stuttered that I didn't have food or his leash or collar.   Well, that was no problem.  So I was more than willing.   He is cute and looks like Yoda in person too.  (that is for Richard, Brenda, Bobbie and Bill.)   His nose is listing a bit to the right too but he is adorable.  He is obviously an odd combination of Chihuahua and Pug.  He has asked me to take him out about 5 times.   I know I wanted to walk but I will be glad when he feels more comfortable.  I think he wants to go "home"  whatever that is in his little heart

Right now he is sleeping on my lap.   I will be home all day tomorrow so perhaps he will become more comfortable after a good nights sleep and a day of a kind of routine.

So I am no longer alone in the house.   He will be just fine.
