Who's ready for a feel good post to start the day??
A few of you may have noticed that after a long time, Slater is no longer on our website and we haven't been posting him.
Well that's because our boy got a home!! And not just any home, the PERFECT home. One of those meant to be adoptions that is just too beautiful of a story not to share with yall because we know Slater had worked his way into many hearts! ā¤ļø
Back in February we had an event at the Augusta tractor supply; while there, we met a wonderful lady named Virginia. She visited with us, gushed over one of the puppies (Romeo) and told us all about her beautiful boy, Rigsby. Rigsby had alot of medical things and allergies going on, so as much as Virginia would have loved to adopt, she knew it wasn't feasible with Rigsby.
Virigina kept in touch with us, she has sent donations and just become a common name among us. To thank her for her support and donations, we had sent her a little NFR dog stuffy, by the time she received it, she messaged to let us know that it was perfect timing. They had lost Rigsby a few days prior š
After a little bit, Virginia started asking about Slater, but was having a difficult time getting her head and heart on the same page about another dog. I explained to her that I understood completely, as does anyone whoās lost a dog. When the time is right, and itās meant to be, Rigsby will paw pick the right pup for them.
A week or so went by, Slater was supposed to have had a meet and greet but the person changed their mind when they were told he may have accidents inside still...
Last Friday morning as I was telling Slaterās foster about the adopter changing their mind, I got a message from Virginia. She was fully aware he may still have a few accidents and may be a bit shy at first. But Virginia and her husband were OK with that. They couldn't get him off their minds and just knew they had to have him. We went to work setting it up, and later that afternoon Virginia and her husband made the trip to meet up with Judy (Slaterās foster mom) and that was all it took.
Slater is home ā¤ļø( and accident free!! š )
He will never replace Rigsby, but he will certainly help filling that void and help heal hearts š
Thank you Virginia, for giving our boy the chance he so desperately deserved ā¤ļø and thank you Judy for fostering him and loving him like your own for the few months you had him!
