Why did the thought never occur to me before!? My friend Lindsay suggested it the other day, and I honestly didn't consider it because I assumed there wasn't really a service like that here. But apparently, there is an enormous dog rescue industry here in Sweden! Kennels are rescuing dogs from Spain, Cyprus and everywhere in between, bringing them to Sweden and finding foster homes for them. So... now the question is... what kind of dog do we want?!
The funny thing is, Lindsay has suggested dog sharing. Which, for our prospective pup, is essentially like having divorced parents who hang out all the time. Ha! It's not such a bad idea, since Jenny and I travel a lot. I have to run this one by the parliament before we make a decision, but what are our thoughts on dog sharing? And dog adoption? Do we want a puppy who we can mold and shape to our evil will, or do we want someone else's, older, neglected, possibly problematic dog? Not that I am partial one way or another... obviously.
