With a midterm a mere 36 hours away and a Moot Court Competition rounding the bend, my ability to please factor is at an all-time low. While dental student sleeps until 8:30 due to "Spring Break" (sorry folks, in grad school sleeping until 8:30 is DEFINITELY a vacation, and you still have tons of fun work to do over the week) I have been in the library with my favorite study partner. Even Havi is exhausted from my routine this past month!
Before I get back to the proper way to divide an estate upon one's intestate death, I thought I'd introduce you to some pretty cool things. We decided a couple of months ago that dog parks are just not right for Havi. There are many differing opinions on dog parks and socialization, but our decision was based on a harrowing incident that we'll discuss another time. As a result, I looked into other options for our pup that loves to play. I was led to MeetUp, a site where people of differing interests can "meet up" with people who have similar interests. That's where we found Amy and the NYC Pitbull and Pit Mix Rescue Group. Each week we get fun emails on where to meet up with like owners in controlled settings for some playtime! More importantly, right now the group is leading a kong collection for the AC&C of Manhattan. For more information visit their Facebook, they were featured in the Daily News last week!
We decided to declare every Monday a Rescue Pup of the Week. We'll discuss later how very important we think rescuing is, but first meet Pauly! Second Chance Rescue, where we got Havi has been featuring him for weeks - and we want him to get a home. He's soooo cute! He is 1.5 years old, crate trained, leash trained, UTD with shots and neutered. Please look at Second Chance Rescue to see if you can find a Pauly a home!

We're so excited to have found your blog; we love reading about other pitties--especially in cities. We too found that dog parks are just too overwhelming. There are way to many uneducated people bringing their dogs there, and I know if anything happened they would blame it on us. We do have a secret dog park we go to early in the morning when no one is around. Otherwise, we just go on long walks, with backpacks, and sometimes daycare if they're really crazy. Though as they're getting older, it's really just Mr. B who needs to run around like a jackrabbit for awhile, then they're ok.
ReplyDeleteWe don't do dog parks either. That's really neat that you found a meetup, I had never even thought of that!
