Rebel is a 3.5 year old, blue brindle male from B&J Racing Kennels in Jacksonville, Florida. He's 65 lbs (race weight) and a big goofy, silly bundle of energy!!He's been off the track since June and in the last two weeks, I've been in contact with his owners and discussing his adoption. This weekend, he was fostered at one of Cathie's friend's place in order to be cat- and alone-tested. He passed!! He's interested in cats, but can be distracted and is therefore trainable to be cat-safe. Yeah!! Apparently he has two speeds - on and off! He's interested in EVERYTHING and very enthusiastic about life in general. He does zoomies like a fiend and will be quite the handful when he comes up here.
If all goes well, he will come up here towards the end of March, after Sandy Paws at the beginning of March. He'll be catching a ride with a couple from near Barrie.
It feels a bit strange to be adopting another dog. Alot of emotions are whirling around in my head, including pain and sorrow and heartache and happiness and joy and excitement. But I know the happiness and joy that Abbey brought me. I'm hoping that Rebel can bring me the same. They aren't the same dog, different in personality, shape, colour, size, etc. But I think Rebel is a good match.
I miss Abbey. I cried for him today again. I miss him so much.
