So yesterday, this adorable little guy wandered around the newsroom-- he was the Humane Society's KOMO TV Pet-of-the-Week.
His name is Dorian.
Of course I fell in love. Who wouldn't? All I could think about was how cute that 3-year-old Llasa Apso mix would look with my own 3-year-old Llasa Apso mix, Dudley. (Dorian is also a boy, by the way)
So I scheduled a meet-and-greet for the two little boys for this morning. Unfortunately, Abbey is sick.She has been coughing a deep, hacking cough for a week, and retches after each spasm. Nothing comes out, but there is clearly something wrong. She also ran away on Tuesday night, and I was an absolute wreck all night and into Wednesday, when I got a call from Seattle Animal Control that she had been found, about a half-mile away, on the OTHER side of Aurora Avenue (a VERY busy street).
I don't want to think about how she crossed that street.
But I can't bring a new dog into the house right now with Abbey having serious issues at age 14.
"sigh".
It's just not meant to be, I guess.
