When I rounded the corner, and the expression on her face was of pained bewilderment. I said "good morning" and she crumpled on the stair to her seat. "What's wrong?"
"I dreamt about the puppy."
I didn't ask what kind, any dream at all was going to hurt. Later we made our appointment to the house. It's perfect. Plenty of space, and so much yard to utilize.
When it was time to leave, I saw a white caterpillar on my car. I've never seen one in white before. I fabricated the idea of it being a symbol of good luck. I have no idea if there is any relevence.
Some hitches in the credit history that I expected, but it's not awful and a couple of the items simply need to be removed. It's in a productive process.
Then I napped because I'm not feeling well. A few hours later, the phone rang, I thought it was the bear, but it wasn't, the number I didn't know but I recognized it from a call the evening prior that I didn't pick up because I didn't know what it was.
It was the animal rescue to tell me they'd found the tiny puppy. I'm covered in disbelief and gratitude for the lengths they are going to to return the dog to us. She's fine, she was dirty and light a few pounds. They bathed her and are hanging on to her while we work out how to get her. They sent us a picture, so there's no doubt it's her. And I can't express enough how much I appreciate all that they're doing. They don't owe me anything, and are under no obligation except perhaps the standard 72 hour or whatever holding time before they make her adoptable or whatever.
This is the Mitchell, SD Animal Rescue. I owe them so much, and will do anything I can, not just with donations and supplies, but with promoting them and directing traffic where I can.
Thank you all so much. Soon I'll have my tiny puppy back defiant to all my lost hopes.
