Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

I left a message on their page, I was real mature in my message and I still wasnt given the decency of a response but it looks like I am not the only person having some troubles with this rescue as well

Stephanie, if you are pretty certain that you will never get that dog (and I'm sorry if that is the case) why not send them a link to this thread ?

Okay, I seriously need feed back right now, PLEASE. The unthinkable happened.. I received a response from FHS:
"Sorry we have kinda left you on the back burner. We have been going through some personal issues lately and have not been responded to emails and phone calls accordingly. We are in KY at the moment. Connor is still in a foster home. We are rehabilitating there lab mix for dog aggression at the moment. They want to keep Connor but only if it is a success with their other dog. When we get back from KY 2-step the lab mix will be going home. If Connor and 2step do not get along on 2steps end they will be returning Connor back to us. I will contact you either way if it is a success or not and you will have first tibs of Connor. Connor is great with other dogs and cats. He can be nervous of people mainly men but has made great progress being in a foster home and getting the exposer of the city life that he needed. Sorry again for leaving you in the dust. Thank you for being so patient with us"
This has thrown me in quite a loop. I've been looking at many other dogs, and was even planning to visit an akita for adoption in south jersey this weekend. Assuming I might of get this dog, I get this message today. It really puts me in a tough spot because I still have a heart for Connor, who Ive wanted for so long, but it still isnt guaranteed I'll get Connor and if I wait for him, I may lose out on two dogs.
I want to respond to their message. Point out that not only I've been waiting for a response for him but also looking around for other dogs, assuming that the adoption for Connor was not happening. I also wanted to add in some how that I wanted to know what are my chances of things not being successful with the other dog and me getting Connor, though I know they cant give me an answer in black and white, but something, maybe at least an estimated time frame would be somewhat helpful. I really want Connor but at the same time I cant wait around forever for an adoption that may or may not happen

There are PLENTY of dogs that need adopting, you will NEVER run out of a large pool of potential adoptable dogs.
Why not wait a few months and see whether you can get the dog your really want?
At least they wrote back, and apologized. They should not have left you in the dark so long, but this note to you was a small step in the right direction.

Do what your heart tells you to do. Might take some soul-searching, but the answer IS there.

yes, I do appreciate them getting back to me.
Better late then never. So I should wait..? I know that if I am able to adopt Connor, I wouldnt be any happier as he is the dog I had my heart set on for the longest time already, I just wonder if I didnt get him, what would happen? Am I looking at being heart broken yet again...?
(my god it feels like Im talking about a boyfriend lol)

If Connor is the dog you want, then wait for him. If it's meant to be, it will be. If it's not, that means there's an even better dog out there waiting to find his way to you.
