Thread: Potential rescue adoption - phone interview

I finally got an email from her this morning saying her internet has been down and that they do have a pending adopter for Alaska at this time (not me). I just feel it was unfair that she would send me an email wanting to do a phone interview and then I never hear from her. Trust me, I don't feel entitled by any means, but I do feel like I wasn't given a fair chance. Is this the way it will go from here on out, because I'm not sure how much more of this I can take! I'm on the verge of getting on a waiting list with the breeder I have chosen, but I feel so bad for the Frenchies that need homes and want to go that way, but they make it so difficult!

Cosette is a cutie, I love the picture of her above! Thanks everyone for the kind words and encouragement. Sorry for the venting though, but it helps to have a place to discuss all this with with people who love this breed!

Damn, I was so hoping you would get her. Please try to stay positive, your baby will come along unfortunately, patience is never really a strong suit when we are in these types of scenarios. Do not apologize for venting... come here as much as you need to --- we are always here to help support you

I am so sorry this adoption attempt did not go through, but do keep trying. The right little French girl is out there somewhere waiting to go home with you!

Thank you everyone for your support and kind words. I'm taking a breath tonight (literally, Frenchies have ruled my evenings for the past few months!), and thinking about what I want to do. It's so tough to be denied that sweet little baby! I'm in tears because I've already started to get attached to the little bugger!

Now, it's getting a bit ridiculous. How can a dog go "available" and then pending in less than 24 hours!!??? Really??? I'm starting to think you REALLY have to "know someone"
