Are you definitely in the market for a boy? Where in WI are you? I know that Russell and Gizmo have been there for awhile already. I have looked at them a few times on Petfinder myself. Russell sort of calls to me but I need another Rottie like I need a hole in the head. If I were in a different financial situation, He would already be living with me.

I can't wait to hear how things go. Keep me posted
Well... I thought I needed to get a boy... because I already have a female at home. She supposedly has Akita in her, and Akitas are known to be same-sex aggressive. She certainly doesn't look Akita, though, and only shows aggression when she feels she needs to protect us (we're working on it).

She's definitely more GSD than anything else, so I'm not sure if we need to be concerned about the sex of our next dog. (The hubby and I were just talking on our walk with Luna that we'd actually like three dogs: Luna, a Rottie, and an Aussie, so we'll probably end up with two females at some point, anyway).
Do you know what sort of adoption fee they require? We're trying to sort our our finances, too.
Oh, and I'm way up near Superior, WI, so it's a bit of a hike for us to go down to Madison. ;-)
