Chihuahua Power!
So we've been trying to find a home for our foster dog. Anyway, some guy contacted us today saying that his chihuahua just died. He had a wife who was home all day, and 3 kids. It sounded promising.
We pulled up to his house, and he was shirtless drinking a can of beer. We thought it was possibly his lawn guy (since he told Ian that at 7pm the lawn guys would be over). Nope, it was the guy interested in Noob (foster dog). We went inside, and he had 2 little kids wearing just diapers and dirty t-shirts. His very pregnant wife (who wasn't wearing much in the way of clothing), was sitting on the computer playing video games and looked PISSED. He told us some skeezy story about how he had adopted a pregnant deformed chihuahua and gave it back and was threatening to be sued (I couldn't follow the story too well...). He also pretended to be a chihuahua expert (using such terms as "teacup," saying that 2 separated dogs always died from heartbreak, and the like). He asked his wife several times what she thought, and she kept saying in an angry tone "don't ask me!" Noob was wandering around the house, and found some old pieces of corn and cookies, and a BIG dustball (we honestly thought it was a mouse at first). We were asking $50 as an adoption fee, and the guy asked "what could we do about lowering the fee!" He asked about where we took him to the vet, and said it was the most expensive vet office in the area and asked us why we went there (and the vet office isn't even expensive... it's like $40 for an office visit and it's a holistic vet!).
So yeah, needless to say that we left and said NO. We've already had this dog for 4 months... we can keep him for as long as necessary.
