Lewis Moon Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 Well....we failed. Down in flames like the Hindenburg. It was a long hard slog, filled with long, meaningful (if a little loud) family talks, much soul searching and soon, the divestiture of more capital than we can afford, but....Seeker (now Seeka...think: Boston accent) is becoming a member of our family. She’s a BC from the tip of her liver colored nose to the end of her paralyzed tail. She’s smart, affectionate and athletic; the complete package. We all fell in love with this scared, sick little girl, and now that she’s healthy, she’s paying us back in gold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

urge to herd Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 You're joining the ranks of many on this list, and we welcome you! Seeka looks like a bundle of fun. I'm glad she's found a permanent home with you folks. Ruth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aljones Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 Rarely does it seem so appropriate to congratulate people on their failure as in fostering situations! Congratulations on making Seeka a permanent family member! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShoresDog Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 I had a feeling this was going to happen to you sooner or later. Seeka is lovely, and I bet Cerb is so happy to get to keep this foster! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnLloydJones Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 Well, congratulations to Seeker (Seeka). Cerb definitely needed a canine companion. BTW: family discussions tend to get animated (and loud) here too -- it's a healthy sign. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cody & Duchess Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 You did better than me. I failed at fostering after only two days. Congrats on the new addition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
