How is Sadie handling it, with Mia gone?

Mia just came with me this morning. There are 6 other puppies too. Her and Sophie are pretty close too. The three musketeers were Mia, Sophie and Sadie lol. Hopefully she will do fine. I think they are all really wanting more attention than 2 people can give and even with 4 or more people here, they all want all the attention for themselves.

I know you're doing a great job of finding the perfect homes for them all. South Carolina is lucky to be getting Jeffrey as a new resident soon. I'm sure he'll be bringing smiles to many faces in no time at all. They should definitely use him (as a therapy dog, esp.) for the state's tourism campaign "Smiling faces, beautiful places". He's sooo beautiful and his "soon to be training for" career will bring smiles to untold numbers of faces. Mama certainly benefited from therapy dogs at her oncology clinic, 2 lovely blond Great Danes. The Foreman from the horse farm my boys work at has been in a rehab facility since Thanksgiving, and his son (roughly my age) took his Dad's horse to visit him. All the elderly people that could make it outside went to see Yogi while he was there to visit Mr. Dave, and they cried tears of joy. Most of them hadn't seen a horse since their youth, and Yogi was a real ham giving out kisses to one and all, apparently. I know it did them all a world of good, especially Mr. Dave! Among horse lovers there is a saying "There's nothing so good for the inside of a man than the outside of a horse." I would just change that to ANY ANIMAL. Animals are good for our souls.

I agree. They really are amazing for our souls. I believe each and every one of them comes into our lives with a reason and purpose for being here.

Sophie went for her week trial sunday. Hopefully she is a yes for fitting in. The family is my very good friend and she wanted one will all her heart but was worried it would be too much with a baby in the house so I offered her a trial run with the sweet little girl. They are going out of town this weekend so we told them we would watch her for them if she worked out otherwise we are just taking her back

Fingers crossed! She had a bit of a bumpy first day but seemed to have done much better her second! Rumely Jr will be headed to his new home Friday night as well

I believe this coming week Dolly will be doing her trial run (once she is in the chances of her leaving are slim to none) As sadly the husbands fatherbecame very ill and they were saying their goodbyes last week and Sunday he passed away so this week family will be there and Saturday is the service so they are hoping after things mellow out some to start the week trial with her. It is a for sure for the wife, the husband just needs to see her to fall in love.
