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."

Reunited and it feels ohhhhh soooo gooood!


Sherman and Sarge (now named Trip) reunited for the first time since their adoptions in January and boy did it ever feel good!  They didn't notice or pay attention to each other at first, but once they did, all I can say is it was pure love, love, love!  They were inseparable for most of the 2+ hours while we were at the park; running, growling, mouthing, bumping, jumping, kissing each other.  Of course, as former foster mom (mom) to 'the boys' I was hard pressed to hold back tears...so I didn't even try to! LOL   Trip didn't notice or recognize me at first either and was actually taken aback and a little stand offish when I first called his name, but once he remembered who I was, there was NO stopping him then!  He whined, cried and couldn't stop jumping all over me and his former foster dad (dad) filling our faces with those loving Trip kisses!!!  He was definitely overwhelmed with pure Dog Joy! I think all of us were overwhelmed with emotion. ; how could you not be.  And the best part; he still remembered and responded to my 'kissy' sound, the one I used all the time with the pups when it was time for them to come and get some love.  Trip especially loved it when I did that.  

We are currently working on a much bigger reunion with the rest of the Anishnabe siblings in the very near future so stay tuned.  Man, am I ever gonna need a lot of tissue for this momentous event!  My heart is full.
