Waiting for a visitor

Just hanging out with the Daddy waiting for company.

We had a visitor this afternoon who is going to take Gidget home with her for a few weeks to see if they are a good fit. She'll pick her up next Saturday. She'd be an only pet which is just want I was hoping for her. She really doesn't like "sharing" her humans:-) Not bad about it but it would really be great for her to have a home where she is the princess.

I really liked this woman and I believe that she is interested in what is the right thing for Gidget. That is my main goal. I know there are so many homeless dogs out there looking for a forever home and there are so many fewer home available for all those dogs but I want more than anything to find "the" right home for Gidget. I think she deserves it. Doesn't mean a home wouldn't be a good one, just not right for every dog. And I really hope that this is the right one for her. We shall see. 

In the meantime, the really great news is that after our visitor left, I realized it was past "feeding time" and Gidget hadn't fussed at me about it. In fact, she didn't bark at all. She did jump up in my lap and walk back and forth across it until I realized how late it was. She's been telling me it was dinner time for a couple of weeks and I have been working on waiting her out. Only time will tell if she has stopped barking to get me to feed her but I was very encouraged by her behavior this evening. What a good girlie!
