They still haven't gotten back to me about Missy - I'm dying of anticipation, here! But I don't want to put all my eggs in one basket, so I'm looking around.

STEP ONE:
Find a dog in need of rescue I want AND that might be compatible with my current dog, within a reasonable distance from me. Not -too- difficult...

STEP TWO:
Convince both parents this dog is okay. Now this, this is difficult.

STEP THREE:
Fill out ridiculously long application.

STEP FOUR:
Wait for a response. THIS. IS PAINFUL. waiiiit. waiiiiit....
:(
