Well the cost of dog food isn't a big deal. Since we started feeding Otis over the summer, we've bought a single bag of food (which hasn't been opened yet, actually). 2/3 of the household works in grocery, and big bags of dog food come off the truck busted open all the time. The store only needs the packaging to get credit, so we dump it into a box and bring it home with us.

So, I mean, building a dog house for her would be all fine and dandy, but the idea that someone out there would be willing to take this dog in and give her a proper home is fantastic.

I get attached to things way too quickly.
