Getting to "adoptable"

Sigh.  Double sigh.  That's always what happens when I even think of getting Langley listed on adoption Websites as up for adoption.  It's not because I can't let go of him - lord knows I'm ready for him to find a home of his own. It's just I feel a lot of pressure (self-induced) to make sure that he ends up in a home that can not just handle his issues, but can continue to build on the immense progress he's made over the last several months and really dedicate themselves to learning how to adjust their lives a bit to living with Langley. 

Anyone who's followed Langley's story knows that there're a lot of things about Langley that could be considered negative.  And when I try to list the pros in my head, they are so tough to find words to adequately describe. He's gorgeous and athletic, and incredibly intelligent, and he's.... um...."loveable"? It makes me tear up because what makes Langley so wonderful and incredible and truly worth saving, can't really be put into words. A person needs to spend about 30 minutes with him (there needs to be enough time for his initial excitement to die down) and then they will see and feel what is truly amazing about this dog and he will have wormed his way into their heart. 

So while he's a 10-15 year project and you would need to put away all your breakable, valuable things and invest in a Spotbot carpet cleaner, take it from someone who has lived with him: he is truly amazing and a journey with Langley is one worth taking.
