Well, we're not planning on adopting, like, tomorrow. It could be years. We just want to get the ball rolling.
I'm annoyed -- mostly by the fact that the nice lady (and she DID seem like a very nice lady, don't get me wrong) waited until she was an hour into her presentation before bringing up the pit bull thing -- but nah, I'm not devastated. There are other agencies. I wouldn't even rule out convincing someone at this agency to work with us.
We knew the risks going in when we got a pit. We expected it would make it more difficult to adopt a human. We'll keep trying, and, more, this is an opportunity to do some advocacy and try and change some minds. We're already planning on trying to get her trained and certified as a
Good Citizen. And we've got photographic evidence of her playing with our two-year-old nephew and him seeming pretty happy and still in possession of all four limbs.
