Just got back from seeing Obi, he was really sweet. He was a little growly in the kennel, but once we had him out he was running around and fine. so We decided to get Libby out of the car for them to meet and she was great. she didnt like him sniffing her butt so much but within a few minutes they were running around together. He still needs to be fixed and they said that a few other people were also interested as well and to call on Saturday. fingers are crossed.

Good luck! Did you by any chance see if Luna was still at that shelter? Still haven't heard anything about Lumen. It is hard not to be impatient. Tomorrow I call the local humane society to see why it was in my best interest...

he was the only husky there. was luna the one you were waiting on? Obi is at safe harbor humane society in kenosha, wi. Im hoping it will be a plus for me because I already have a husky and understand the breed. I hope you hear something soon. the least they could do is call you back and say the dog went to a good home.

I believe Luna is at the same shelter as Obi...It was one of the links Jennet posted on this thread along with Obi.

Lumen is the one I am waiting to hear on...she is not adopted yet. They always put pending next to their name and it hasn't happened yet. They have put pending on two other dogs names during my wait....

I relooked the links that Jennet sent and Luna is in Kenosha but she is at St Francis society and in foster care. It is aggrivating how much they are tossing you around. You think they would want the dogs in a home and have one less animal to care for. It was just surprising how well Libby got along with him. She always growls at other dogs. she turned and rose her lip to him once or twice and he backed off and it went so well.

I hope you get him! He really is handsome!

Thank you. and I hope you get a call back soon.

I'm thinking with the holidays...it probably won't be till next week now. I must learn patience! LOL!

Im going to feel the same way now. because if Obi gets taken by another family then i need to start looking all over again. Yoour house must feel so quiet without Dakota and willow playing around. Your home needs that rythum back again.

Yeah and then I will wonder what i got myself into! LOL!

It will be worth it. at least thats what i keep telling myself. lol.

Good luck with Obi! He's freaking gorgeous! I definitely think it will help that you're a husky experienced home..

The husky at our local humane society just got posted so I called and someone already beat me to her.

To think all you're trying to do is help out one and you hit walls everywhere you go. This is going to be a long few days waiting to hear, especially knowing others have already filled out applications too.
Mindy can't you still put an application in for the one at the humane society incase the other person is refused? Locally would be so nice for you as well.
The drive last night was a nightmare. Traffic down to Kenosha wasn't so bad but took twice as long to get home during rush hour through the city. Obi does look a lot like Willow.
I'm not sure on his name, he is young and has only had it for a few weeks so if I get him I may change it, but can't think of a good one. Any suggestions?

I emailed the rescue and got a response back so I feel better. She said that she should know this weekend. It sounds like the person before me is having to travel to meet Lumen so I will be surprised if they don't take her. Atleast I know NL has other options if so.

Yay - that's good news Mindy! Once they know you, hopefully the next cat-friendly one that pops up will be yours!

Oh Mindy that is great news. My fingers are crossed and prayers are sent for you and Willow. She needs a buddy again.

Great news Mindy

Thanks everyone! I really just need to be patient but it's so hard!

Christine, let us know what happens! I hope you get him!

Thanks, you will all know as soon as I do. He still needs to be fixed yet so it would probably be a week before he could come home if they chose me. i did find a few more online that are somewhat close if he gets to go home with someone else.
