    Another thing you can do: I made up basically baseball cards for different dogs and have posted them all over my building. This is a power point slide – cut into four cards. I think I could post the file or you can make your own.

    Love this. I would take Ghost if I didn’t have (a) the wrong kind of home for a dog like Ghost and (b) two smaller dogs, one of which is very alpha. But I’m trying to think of any friends who could provide Ghost or Bologna a good home.

    You can also

    * Foster
    * Take a dog out for a day on a “Dogventure”. We have “adopt me” leashes and “adopt me” vests for the dogs. Take the dog for a big walk on the WOD or something like that.

    Sounds like a good way for single people to meet other people.

    Rode over and walked three doggos last evening.

    Nestor:

    Oscar:

    Dawson:

    [ATTACH=CONFIG]19347[/ATTACH]

    Nestor and Oscar were both leash pullers but really sweet. Dawson was new and may have been a hunting dog. Mrs. rcannon said they had received three hunting dogs with tattoos recently, but she wasn’t sure yet who was who. But Oscar was a bit timid at times and I thought I might have to pick him up and carry him back along Roosevelt. I couldn’t get a good pic of him on the walk, where he was mostly head down and nervy, but once I put him back in the cage he was animated again. Right after the above pic he gave me a goodbye kiss on the hand, so I felt a little better.

    One more of Dawson:

    ETA: Does anyone know how to make the pics orient correctly? (I mean, at least they’re not upside-down like some, but still.)

    You could easily snag 100+ points by taking a dog for a few hours long “Dogventure”. If anyone does it (or wants to do it), let me know the details and I will calculate some points for you.

    I would *love* to do this and have thought about it many times, but “plays well with others” was not on my dog’s resume when we picked him up at the Richmond SPCA.

    LOL I was wondering if dogventure had been added to the scoring bible. Will try to do this.

    Rode over this morning at 7:30 to walk 4 dogs: Nestor, Caramelo, Micha, and Chloe

    Also found the puppies upstairs and went in to play with them for a little while. It was a slobberfest

    #Fail! Okay, thats hilarious. I was being a jerk, correcting the orientation by putting my laptop on its side and then taking a picture of it w my ipad (orientation fixed, says the jerk). And look what the forum did to the photo!!

    I would not have perceived that as jerkiness but as humor; however, this way is doubly humorous.

    Hi Nestor! Also, those puppies look like gremlins; don’t let them get near water.

    I’ve noticed that on my Flickr page, pics of my dog will sometimes get like 50 views while others get few, so I’ve taken to putting some of the Lost Doggos on there as well and placing the name of the foundation in the description. Who knows, maybe someone will fall in love.

    Bonus is the pics orient correctly.

    Pictures taken with Apple devices often do not play nicely with the forum based on how the metadata that says what way the camera was oriented is handled.
