divine angst

Now that Mr. Angst and I are home from our little trip, we are preparing to get our new dog! We pick him up this evening (and MANY thanks to that shall-remain-unnamed friend who is lending us her car to make that task a little easier).

I think we’re pretty much ready to get him, too. We haven’t gotten a lot of stuff, since his current owner is going to give us a lot of the things they currently have. In that way, adopting a dog from a person is a lot different from buying a puppy or adopting a dog from a shelter. But we want to make sure the apartment is tidy and mostly dog-proofed (though he is not a chewer). And we want to make sure it’s inviting for him. So we’ll do a little of that preparation this afternoon before we go get him. Is there anything else we should be doing before we pick up Himself today?
