There is a secret spca dog I want to meet because he is the favourite breed look of hubby. Its an hour drive and we will need to leave by 11H30-12pm latest. To me, this dog looks mighty fragile and high maintenance for brushing. Also, from the eyes on the photo, I would easilysay 4-6 years old not 3 necessarily, a common 'white lie' by owners who want their pet rehome faster by the spca. Young pets tend to be the first to go.
His first outing with us would be here, wiht Billy
* Hubby pointed out it is not wise to bring a brand new adopted dog in a foreign part of the region where you are going to be far away from the home for your pet and you, straight after adopting. Maybe first bonding is better before real huge dangerous adventures of the hiking type in wild nature, in a foreign region to home site.
