St. Labby Day fun

Yesterday’s St. Labby Day party for WHLR turned out to be a little more than what I expected. I drove out there expecting to see just a small meet and greet type type thing set up, but it ended up being a whole block party instead.

Turned out to be somewhat chaotic but very fun. Both litters of puppies were out there and were hugely popular with the kids (as usual). The fundraising raffle was a pretty big success and we gave out a bunch of application forms. I think we also finalized 4 o 6 adoptions yesterday too which was great. Don’t think we sold quite as much stuff as we did during SEWE, but we generate a lot of interest.

On fostering

This was posted by someone over in a lab forum that I hang out in

I am the bridge between what was and what can be.
I am the pathway to a new life.
I am made of mush, because my heart melted when I saw you
Matted and sore, limping, depressed, lonely, unwanted, afraid to love.
For one little time you are mine. I will feed you with my own hand
I will love you with my whole heart, I will make you whole.
I am made of steel
Because when the time comes,
When you are well and sleek,
When your eyes shine,
And your tail wags with joy-
Then comes the hard part.
I will let you go– not without a tear, But without a regret.
For you are safe forever. A new dog needs me now.

A new family

Well, that didn’t take long at all.

The woman and her friend came by and pretty much fell in love with Hannah right away. Hannah hit it off with them too. I gave them a run down of the training I’ve done with her, her behaviour quirks and personality traits. Now she’s off to be with her new family. I think she’ll be in a great home and get plenty of love and spoiling. They were really nice people and fairly young, so I think she’ll be with them a long long while.

Feels good to know she’s got a good home to go to now (not that she didn’t have one here of course).
