Well parenthood only lasted a couple of days for us :( After getting Ruger home it just wasn't a good fit. David and I weren't comfortable with him in the house and he marked constantly (even though he's neutered) and he got one of my plants twice so we constantly had to keep a close eye on him. He's a sweet dog but we knew it just wasn't going to work out. So we had to make a tough decision and call the humane society letting them know we'd be bringing him back but they totally understood. They already had a family lined up that inquired about him the day before we picked him up so he didn't even have to stay at the shelter. We also donated the bed & collar and insisted they keep his adoption fee to put it to good use. He'll be a good fit for his new family because the father is a stay at home dad and home schools his eight year old son so Ruger won't be in a kennel at all or very minimal and will get the attention he'll need to be trained quickly. It all worked out for the best and we'll just continue our joint custody of Annie with mom & dad hahahah :)
We're ready to celebrate with Dave & Jenny tomorrow so we'll post pictures from the shindig on Sunday. Stay tuned..............
