When people say, 'I couldn't foster because it would be to hard to give a dog up' We say 'How can it be harder than knowing a dog died because no foster home stepped up?' and that's why we do it time and time again.
A Dog's Prayer: "Treat me kindly, my beloved friend, for no heart in the entire world is more grateful for your kindness than mine. Don't be angry with me for long, and don't lock me up as punishment. After all, you have your job, your friends and your entertainment. I only have you."

Jackson - ADOPTED!!!

Well, it looks like Jackson is home at last!

Well, it came as a complete surprise, and after more then 2 1/2 years with us,  Jackson's new forever home was right under his nose (and ours) the entire time he was with us.  It turns out that very good friends of ours had a secret crush on Jackson the entire time, unbeknownst to us.  They had longed and really wanted to adopt him, but due to timing and circumstances during that time, did not submit their application nor tell us about their secret feelings for our foster boy, feeling that for sure some lucky family out there would scoop him up in no time.  Well, as time went on and that didn't happen, they took it as a sign and realized that Jackson was meant to be theirs all along... and so it was is!  Jackson is finally home and couldn't be happier!  I've never seen a family more in love with a new fur-member and vice-versa, a former foster dog so happy adoring of his new family.  

So the moral of this story: no matter how many professional photos we take, or how much blogging we do or posting to facebook...and no matter how many times a foster dog is a 'featured' pet in local papers, a foster dog  is going to find his/her forever home...when it's 'meant to be.'  In our situation, the Universe...and Jackson have made it so.
