Arrival Story:
After searching for breeders for over a year, I narrowed it to three- but none had male puppies available this summer, so I figured I would have to wait until at least fall to adopt. Then I got the call on May 14th, a Friday afternoon that the person that was adopting one of the boys that I had hoped for was unable to take him, so.... "Gypsy B" could be mine! AND that she could put him on a flight in the the morning! I rushed home to get everything in order because my little baby would be coming home tomorrow! Saturday morning we drove to the airport to pick him up. I was nerve-racking! He was the last one to de-board. When we got in the car I took him out of his crate and fell in love. He was so tiny- only 1 lb! He wasn't scared or timid at all! He knew he was with his new mommy and gave me "thank you" kisses & love the whole way home! Thats how he was named Tino, after the World's Greatest Lover!
