No, we didn't get the pug we wanted to adopt. They told us it was a difficult decision and we were their second choice, but they went with a family who had adopted an abused puppy from them before and wanted a companion for their dog. So, no Sarge/Serge for us.
So, Operation Plan B went into action.
My clients, who own my favorite dog, Gus, have adopted 3 dogs from a place in Manhattan Beach called The Pet Care Company. They have a relationship with a few reputable breeders who provide them with dogs. They are very selective about who they get their puppies from and watch them carefully for weeks before putting them up for sale.
I fell in love with a 5 month old boy pug who is also apricot colored like Sarge (the only 2 I have ever seen with that coloration).
His name is tentively Thurston. He's adorable with an incredibly expressive face. He's on my lap at the moment with his chin on my desk. I think he is asleep.
When things calm down a bit here I'll get some pictures.
