First Post of the Day
Sweet little Minnie found a home yesterday! No surprise, it was Kelly, the school nurse and my former colleague. Minnie is in very good hands.
Good morning, sunshine! Wanna play?
Minnie was a very good dog. Happy, got along with humans and other dogs, wasn't barky, house trained, came when she was called... The list of Minnie's positives goes on.
Lisa worked with two shelters trying to get Minnie back to her home. She was chipped and we didn't think there would be any issue in getting her there. But one of the two numbers was disconnected and, despite messages being left at the other number, no one ever returned the shelters' calls or called Lisa herself.
In addition, a social media blitz did not turn up anyone who recognized her or knew where she belonged.
What happened to separate this girl from her home and family? We may never know, but after six days, Lisa had fulfilled the shelters' requirements for holding her and was free to either keep her, surrender her to one of the shelters, or find a home for the dog herself.
Kelly is Lisa's neighbor and had spent time with Minnie, and is delighted to now be her new mama. Lisa is very happy that Minnie will be in such a good home, but of course, she's sad, too. But, since Kelly and Lisa are neighbors, no doubt their paths will cross. Kelly has already invited Lisa to come visit her any time.
And just maybe Nashie will get a playdate occasionally.
No doubt they'd both enjoy that!
This video is longer but you can really see how smitten and gentle Nashie is as he plays with Minnie. Nashie, you are SUCH a good boy!
Enjoy your new home, Minnie! You bounced your way into our hearts and we are happy that you have really landed on your feet in your new home.
