Kenya was adopted today by a wonderful family here in Marblehead. They already have two dogs (one is elderly) and all three dogs immediately romped around in their huge backyard. When I brought Kenya to meet this family, she was so calm and loving...she acted like she was meant to be there. She was a different pup from the scared, skittish dog that first got off the transport from Tennessee a month ago.
Fostering dogs is not always easy. There were times when Kenya was driving us all a little crazy (especially the cat!) I have to thank my husband and kids for their patience. I also have to thank my Yellow Lab, Indy, for being the best doggie-role model in the world. Doing good and helping someone, whether it's a dog or a person, is not always easy. But, it's so worthwhile! The bottom line is that we saved a dog from being euthanized. And, Kenya will bring joy and happiness to this family for many years to come. Amen!
