RE: https://social.lansky.name/@hn250/117082325764863944
I tried with « Adopting an old dog »:
The shelter volunteer said, "He's nine years old. Most people want puppies."
I said, "I'll take him."
His name was Gerald. He had one working ear, a suspicious relationship with stairs, and the energy level of a retired Scandinavian ferry captain. He moved through life at exactly the speed he wanted to.
The first week, Gerald discovered my couch and made a unilateral decision about ownership. No negotiation. No transition period. Just Gerald, horizontal, radiating the quiet authority of someone who has genuinely stopped caring what you think.
The vet told me his hips were going. Gerald did not appear to have been informed of this. He still investigated every corner of the backyard with the methodical thoroughness of a Cold War archivist cataloguing documents nobody asked for.
Here's what nine years of living does to a dog: it removes all the noise.
No performing. No anxious tail-chasing. No frantic need to be loved by everyone in the room. Gerald reserved his affection like a limited-edition pressing. If he put his head in your lap, you felt genuinely chosen.
We had two years together.
They were extraordinarily quiet years.
I recommend them completely.

Today went from chill with happy hour with friends later to happy hour rescheduled and tiny dog proofing the house.
Mesh over the interior fence to keep Wallace in the approved dog area.
Pick up a crate since we've never needed one.
Pick up some harnesses and coats for a dog half Paco's size.
Look into less loud nail trimming tools (Paco is ok with a loud ass dremel but Wallace is 5 so maybe won't be).
Pics when we get him home this afternoon
-
we're picking up Wallace (previously shelter named: Bino) this afternoon. He had to get fixed and possibly a dental procedure.
Interesting that the Denver Animal Shelter is like “He just had 1-2 major things done. He's in a cone. Here you go."
Our first time dealing with the municipal shelter, definitely a different process.

Paco and Bino got along great! Now back in the queue.

Today marks two weeks that our little rescue is with us 😚
