The night before going to meet Etta the husband kindly went to Petco to buy the neseities for an unknown dog that we weren't sure we were bring home. I had been told she was a 'large' dog ( cue me thinking: 80+lbs or small horse) and 'energetic' (cue me thinking: uncontrolible small horse). We bought an x-large collar, choke chain, bowls, leash, chewwie, poop bags, trainer/ treat pouch, and then some.
We only had to drive about 15-20 minutes to meet Etta. Her people were super nice and fun to talk with. We played ball with Etta for a few minutes until she decided she was done and went for the water bowl. We left her outside as we went in their lovely house to have a tour and talk some more. I paused to look outside to see what Etta dud to amuse herself while we were inside. She had set the tennis ball, that we had brought, in between Andrew's boots. I called Andrew over to look at his boots and R came running thing Etta was eating them. When everyone saw what she had done with the ball it was deemed a sign. It really was pretty cool, I wish I had a picture now. I think it was then that Etta was coming home with us. R and her husband graciously gave us a bunch of her current food, defleaed her and gave her the heart worm medicine they had for her. We broke out the collars we had bought and they fit perfect! ( I have no idea why she is probably 22" and 55 lbs). We all loaded up in the truck and headed home.
