Better Late Than Never!

As I have stated, in an earlier blog—do not buy a GPS! This morning Andy called from Austin to tell me that he was headed our direction to pick up more dogs, to adopt out for us, in Austin. “My GPS,” Andy said. “Tells me that I will arrive at precisely 11:19.”

I knew that Andy was coming this morning, because we had talked yesterday about him driving down. I spent several hours yesterday filling out all of the paperwork for the twelve lucky dogs, writing names on their new collars, and then putting their dog tags on. I was ready for Andy!

When John arrived, after rescuing five more dogs from the Kerrville pound, earlier this morning and taking them to Hoegemeyers—he quickly put the new collars on the lucky dogs, and then he started cleaning pens.

At 11:15, Ben and Kurt arrived to help us load up the dogs, and Andy was late by three minutes! And, this is why I’m definitely not going to purchase a GPS—not until they can work out all of the bugs! Three minutes, for goodness sakes!

Within twenty minutes, John, Ben, Kurt and Andy had loaded up Archie, Blondie, Lucy, Sushi, Wally, the litter of five pups and the two other puppies! After a round of handshakes and farewells—Andy took off for Austin with our dogs!

It’s been a great day!

P.S. Kurt, we really enjoyed your visit and thank you for the generous donation! Have a safe flight!
