Rockstars

The shelter took possession of an impound today. He is a 2-3 yr old male pit mix. (intact)I hadn't had a chance to spend time with him, so I didn't know much other than he was very friendly.
The family that found him came in to fill out adoption papers and to visit him. The family has 4 boys, ages 13 on down to 7. And what a handful!
This dog was freaking amazing. He took everything in stride, was polite, relaxed, eager, playful. He enjoyed the kids, and did so well with them.

I dubbed him the shelter Rockstar today.
I'm pretty sure the family will be approved, no reason not to approve them.
I shared with them the Doggone Safe website, and offered to teach the boys one on one how to be around dogs. (they do have a dog at home that gets along with this dog)

Also, Snow has a potential home. A relative of a volunteer is looking at him. She has a terminally ill dog, and once it passes, she is interested in adopting. She met him today, and that went well. *fingers crossed*

Sounds like a great match! Hope it works out.

Yay for Snow!

He's now settling into that home. My daughter met him before he went to his family, and she fell in love with him. If I could have taken him I would have! lol
Sometimes a dog just 'feels' right, and you know that they'll be an easy one to fall in love with.

^I know exactly what you mean. Best of luck to that boy in his new home!
