Hello Pam, I can imagine the grieve you had loosing your wonderful dog Max 6 months ago. Very sad you also had to give up your two precious kitties. What caused that? But how wonderful the sweet cute loving little Poppy came into your life, heart and home all of a sudden. I’m happy for you!
Greetings from the Netherlands, Rita From: pam_the_rn Sent: Friday, December 21, 2012 3:00 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [Chihuahuas] Glad to join in Poppy's Story The loss of my dog Max was VERY hard for me,We rescued him when he was 2 and had him till he was 13, He was the sweetest, smartest,Cutest Welsh Corgie. He saw me through good times and bad and always knew when I needed him to stay a little closer and cuddle. since his loss about 6 months ago,we have been through a lot of life changes, including moving and having to rehome our two precious kitties. I have been aching for a new furry friend to love and cuddle for some time now but my ADULT brain kept telling me it was good to be free of the responsibilities of a pet, but my heart just wouldn't let me forget about the blessings a pet brings into your life .While chatting in small groups during one of my online study groups a friend asked if I was still missing my MAX and if I had considered getting another dog, we chatted about it for a few minutes and then .HERE IT COMES.."Pam, I was wondering if you would consider adopting my mom's puppy?" .Ummm The details: Poppy is a 6lb, 7 month old, pure bred chihuahua, completely spoiled and loves to do nothing but cuddle and play. He is house broken, crate trained, up to date on his shots, and just an all around good boy. She goes on to tell me that her mom was in a serious car accident about a month ago and will no longer be able to care for him. She wants to know if I would love him, she will give him to me with all of his belongings ( EVERYTHING any spoiled pup would need including a wardrobe LOL) I hesitate, think about it, text Bert, talk to Taylor ..AGREED, we will meet and see how it goes well as you can see, Poppy is now our new furry family member, He's everything I needed, he cuddles on my lap when I study, walks with me in the day, loves to ride with me to pick up Tay and lays with me when we read or watch TV at night. What can I say as the famous quote goes "The heart wants what the heart wants" and my Heart needs the compainship of a furry friend named Poppy!!
