Good thoughts being sent your friend Beverly's way from Windsor, Ontario Canada. You are a nice friend to have YaYa. Anne

I've waited until today to read all your posts about Buffy. I'm currently suffering over the mishandling of my neighbor's dogs and have just been sick about it. My story isn't turning out so well, but I just want to say I'm so glad Buffy is finally getting the help, care and love she deserves. Larry does not need or deserve this sweet little thing. Hugs to you Trinity and to sweet little Buffy.

Larry is an odd one for sure. But he is not off of his rocker I promise, just a bit of a recluse. He did not ask about the bill at the vet, because I asked when I went in. He did not ask, and they did not tell. I am $5.00 richer, but feel that I am some what entitled to the extra money. I felt a bit guilty, but I have spent a lot of time, worry and money on Buff over the years, but even at that, it was not the money, but the principle. Buffy is now home, next door, and I am sure will be home here tomorrow. I am still unsure of why he went and picked her up. And took off work early to do so. Guilt? We will probably never know, but what is important, is that Buff is well, and groomed and home. It is a crazy world out there sometimes. I will post a picture tomorrow when she comes here in the morning. Again, thank you all for your love and concern. I know this is just a dog, but this little gal has a soft spot in my heart. Without your help and pushing...I probably might not have had the guts to do what I did. And for that I will always be grateful. Hugs, Trin

I want to add one additional comment. When you ask Larry if you can keep Buffy, let him know Buffy can visit anytime he wants to see her. It's hard to say how Larry feels about the dog without knowing him. He may be very attached but not have the time or money. My guess is though, based on the matted hair, that he is not a very responsible owner. If that is the case he will be more than willing to give up the dog. If he does give you the dog I would write up adoption papers and have him sign them. Just something that says he is relinqueshing his ownership to you. You can make something up to Larry about needing proof of ownership for pet insurance. Good luck and keep us informed. Donna P.S. You can also tell Larry when Buffy comes home that she will be needing follow up vet care. If Larry thinks the vet bills will start adding up he will be more willing to give Buffy to you.
