The more I research getting another dog or puppy, the more confused I become. I know I definitely want a black lab, but would prefer a young one that is finished with the chewing stage and is housebroken.
I'm shocked at some of the prices asked for adoption - $450 from one org., $750 from another. Maybe if I was employed full time I could afford that, but as a retired person I find it too steep to consider. I probably won't find another dog, but now and then I wish I could.
Note to Jo about comment yesterday, my glasses are no-line and are usable for close up, distance, and in between. The problem is that I just need a new prescription, but in order for my insurance to pay any of the cost I will have to wait until the first of next year. I could get just a new Rx for reading, but it is such a hassle taking them off and on constantly, that I would tend to leave them on and look over the top when I don't need them for reading. There is probably no good fix for me at the present time and i may as well get used to it.
