Happy and Sad again.....

[gene]

Holly just left me to go to her new forever home in Indiana. I met her new Dad and 2 brothers (2 legged variety) at Petsmart. You'll all be proud of me.....I didn't cry (just teared up a bit). Of course, tears are flowing now......

They were soooooo excited to get her.....drove in pretty crappy weather (12 hour round trip). Holly will have a doodle brother, Mom and Dad, 2 brothers and a sister.....what a great life for a super sweet girl! They promised to send pictures to post of her once she gets acclimated to her new surroundings. I got a great picture of her with her brothers, but I can't post it....sorry........ You'll have to settle for an old one!


Good luck in your new home Holly Jolly........we'll all miss you.....even Rumor!

Gather the rest of the babies around and have a group hug and cry. And dream about who'll be the next lucky doodle to meet Uncle Gene

Gene, you are the very best and Holly was lucky to have you take her in and love her up!! Now you have done the hardest part and she gets to go on and have a wonderful life with her new family so that.........you can open you heart and door to another dog in need?

It's bittersweet, isn't it?
I admire you so much. I couldn't do it. Yet, I should try if the situation arises!!

[Lucee&Rusty]

Good luck in your new home Holly Jolly........we'll all miss you

She is a beautiful girl who deserves this new wonderful life that you have made possible for her!
So very happy for Holly but sadly will miss the wonderful photos and stories.
Well Done Gene!

Awwwwww I'm so happy for Holly - Big hugs to you and the kids ! You are doing such a selfish act by bringing these poor doods into your home, loving them, training them and then having to let them move on -

I dont know if I could do that without being a blubbering idiot all the time - I cry when I read your posts about having to take them to their new families

((((((((((((((((((( Gene )))))))))))))))))))

[MaxandMe]

((((((((((((((GENE))))))))))) tons of great big hug for ya buddy!!!
it's soooo hard and sad to let go but at same time you know deep down the love you gave HOLLY is why she now
is with her new forever home. HOPE your heart isn't too heavy and sad for long as you're doing a great fostering job GENE.

keep up the great work and it's not easy but down the road you'll have your memories to warm your heart.
thanks for HELPING HOLLY.

All I can say Gene is good job. I know the emotions that you are going through. When you get that first email about Holly settling in and doing great with her new family it will all be worth it. Great Job!!! When do you get the next one???
