So... Last month, I spent an evening at work* trying to coax in a stray pit bull who was running around the parking lot behind the bookstore. With the help of a good samaritan with leftover hamburgers, I eventually succeeded. The dog spent the night with us, but because of some initial growling between her and Gretchen, we decided to take her to the shelter the next day. I left my number in case her owners were never found.

Weeks passed...

Yesterday, the shelter called me. They had not found a home for her, and were out of kennel space. The E word was becoming a possibility. That, of course, I would not let come to pass. So I picked her up from the shelter and brought her home. This time, there was no animosity with the other dogs. Gretchen is delighted that we finally brought over a proper dog for her to have sleepovers with. Even the cats have accepted her with tolerable grace.

My plan is to contact pit bull rescue groups, and also the internet. If anyone has any suggestions, they are welcome. Alternately, if any knows of a fat corgi rescue group, I will keep Gretchen's new BFF instead.
