Busy weekend, got a call from the Afghan Hound Rescue of Central Ohio, they had helped when my friend in Indiana died a couple years ago, and had found homes for her dogs. Now they had a dog in northern Indiana that needed to be picked up asap. I drove to Indiana Friday night and picked up Annie, she's a black and silver 7 or 8 year old that they decided to get rid of because their 2 year old grandchild got hit in the face with her wagging tail (?!?!) How can you have a dog that long and decide to get rid of it because it wags it tail? She's staying with me until the Ohio resuce group finds her a home.
I didn't get home from picking her up until after 9pm, and still had a puppy to groom for a Saturday show. I just bathed her and let her drip dry. Annie came with to the show, she's really a sweetheart. It just poured rain all day, and of course, judging was outside. Bonnie was the only afghan puppy entered, so she got Best Puppy, and we had to wait until late afternoon for the group judging. She got second out of two in the group, but it was a positive experience for her first show (other than the fact that we were both soaked the the skin and shivering.
I heard yesterday that the rescue group has one person that is interested in Annie from the photos posted on facebook. I hope this works out. She is sweet, but so nervous, her whole world has been turned upside down and she doesn't know what's going on right now.
