Actually I'm on the other end of the East Coast (Maine). Annie came to us when I was living in MA. As I remember, there is actually a good network of people/organizations who do the initial rescues and then the dogs get distributed to different no-kill shelters and rescue programs throughout the country. My GF at the time was the master at working with all those organizations.

Now look what you've done - you've got me looking at cute dog photos. Look at these hams! Curses!

Curses! Every single one would look great in your home!

I kid, but seriously, if you do need or want any help when the time comes - please don't hesitate to shoot me a message. I still have a few contacts in the rescue world scattered east of the Mississippi and if you ever do need any kind of co-ordination between rescues and groups it'd be an honor to do that for you, your father and a pup.

It almost looked like the tools were shorting out, but I doubt they were. Just VERY clunky movements, constantly running into other tools, etc.
Might have been a different one, similar length though. Kept missing things, odd movements, pausing for like 10 seconds over and over. Seemed to butcher the procedure a good bit, didn't seem to be able to use two hands at all.

I think I'll have to suss that out with Dad. We already tentative talked about "no more dogs", but I think a pup could make a big difference in his enjoyment of life. Annie was easily my favorite dog of all time. Zoe's a good dog, but let's face facts - Annie ruled.

Another greyhound would make me very happy, but a sight hound that needs to be run every day and kept on a leash might be a poor choice for him. Dad is having difficulty walking, and I expect he'll be confined to a wheelchair in the next 12 months. :( If I'm out at meetings, he wouldn't be able to take out a greyhound or run her during the day.

Does anyone here have a PayPal Cash Card debit account they use for getting turk payments? I'm having trouble figuring out how to link Paypal to Amazon Pay.

Did you save the eMail address for AMT customer service [sic] when we had that stink about weekly reports? If so, maybe contacting them via that address, you can find some help. This has been a prob. for you for quite a while, right?

I have never been able to get PayPal to work with Amazon Pay, but I have called their customer service number, well actually you put your number in and they call you, and they have always been really great at walking me through anything or helping me when I had questions.You can find that on the Amazon Pay page after you log into your account and on the right hand side there is a "Contact us" button and it will ask you if you want to email or have them call you. I normally have them call me and they call almost immediately.

I see a lot of these in English as well. In fact, there are some up right now if you search by the requester.

Aren't Amazon Pay and Paypal direct competitors? It wouldn't surprise me if making a connection between the two would be blocked by sheer competitive spite.
