Linda and I finally realize we are not doing the girl any good with our foster care and have decided to give up. Do not be too disappointing, it was harder that we thought.

As of today, she is now part of our pack. There is no way we could let her go anywhere else. She is so sweet it makes me smile every time I see her.

We are foster flunkies and pretty happy about it.

Z will now be referred to as K if I post more about her.


Like many others here I have thoroughly enjoyed reading your posts of "Z" and each milestone you reached together with great enjoyment. I cannot tell you how much I looked forward to each of your posts as well as others here that have shared their experiences. I too have a shelter pup that I have had since the summer of 2009. I love her dearly and yes-even after all this time all she has to do is look at me with those beautiful big eyes and I just melt. She knows it too! Thank you so very much for sharing your experience with your wonderful pup! We loved it!!! Thank you and your wife for taking her in and giving her a wonderful and loving home!!! I am jumping up and down with happiness for she will always have a forever home with lots of love!! I can't stand it-I'm so happy! Another pup that went from an orphan with a grim looking future to a safe and loving home!! HOOORRAYYYYYY!!!! Thank you!! Thank you!! Thank you!!!
