[quote=Anonymous]OP again. I just wanted to let you all know that after nearing the end of my patience with this, having said very little to anyone to anyone during this whole time, I got an email yesterday that we were approved for a dog who will be joining our family soon! Yay! I feel a little silly that I got so worried right before everything worked out. I appreciate all the advice, and have passed it along to a friend who's in a similar situation (she's going to a Lost Dog & Cat Rescue same-day adoption event this weekend).

In case anyone else comes across this topic and it's relevant for them, the dog that is becoming part of our family came from a small network of fosters, rather than a rescue or a shelter. We were able to talk pretty extensively with her foster mom and spend some time with the dog in her foster home the same day we applied. Although I don't know for sure, I suspect this is part of why this arrangement worked out better than the other avenues with tried, since we could explain our lifestyle better in person than we could possibly convey on an application form. So, in addition to the recommendations already made, a network that has only a few dogs and decides every placement on a case-by-case basis might be another possible option.

Thanks, everyone![/quote]
