I agree, Gloria! I was going to wait a few years until I retired, then I decided I would get him this year. I even went to the breeder's. But then, there he was and in need. My brother calls him the world's most expensive rescue dog. I flew from New Jersey to Missouri with my other little chi boy and a partner teacher. We decided we were making it a girls' weekend. We flew in, went to dinner with the rescue cop, picked up the new baby, went to the hotel, and flew out the next day! It was costly but we had a great time! I guess sometimes you just have to do that! I know that soon you will have a great story about your new chi girl, too!
