No german shorthairs

Well, getting a German short haired pointer has been eliminated from our search. the rescue place basically said that they do not find apartment living to be good enough for their dogs. This really angers me, because who is to say that a dog would go outside more in a house than in an apartment? Plus, these dogs are rescue dogs; do not put on petfinder that this in an "URGENT" dog, if you reject good & loving homes for them like us!
We are still waiting to hear back from the boxer rescue, and we found a couple at the humane society we want to go see; one of which is a miniature pinscher. Craigslist also had a 2 year old beagle listed for free that we emailed, so hopefully we hear something back soon! It's just frustrating to see all of these dogs & we call or email them; if it were a real urgent situation it should take someone a small amount of time to respond. And if you are NOT going to respond, then don't list an e-mail or phone number.
Grrr!

That does sound frustrating. It's a lot like adoption where there are so many kids who need loving homes and so many loving homes, but it's so HARD to match them up.

Good luck with your search! Whatever you find will be a wonderful addition to your family :)
