Hoagie's Home

Hoagie has a new home. Friday evening we received an e-mail telling about a possible new home and describing the conditions. The people in the home work different shifts, so there is always someone home to take care of a dog. Saturday we drove Hoagie over to the Rescue offices in Golden. Hoagie went for a walk with them and discovered that they were nice. They promised to take him for several walks per day in a local park. The told him that they had large trees in their backyard and that there were over five squirrels in the Yard. That is all it took for Hoagie to fall in love. Well that and a few ear scratches and tummy rubs.

Hoagie found his ideal home, lots of attention, lots of excercise, and squirrels. It just proves that good things can come to he who waits. Goodbye and good luck Hoagie, we hope to see you at the reunion picnics and party's.

Now we are waiting for a new foster, there are two new dogs coming in to rescue from Wyoming and North Dakota. We will make arrangements to drive up to meet them and make them feel at home.

  3. Very happy for Hoagie. this was relatively quick foster. Looking forward to hearing about your new foster. I hope the two didn't come out of abusive circumstances. Thanks for all you do. It gives me a wonderful feeling knowing that you are giving goldens a safe haven.

  4. YAY!!!! A Yard with 5 squirrels!!!! That is awesome!!! (And my Mom says to say how excited that you guys are so welcoming to foster friends. BTW, because of your blog (we live in Utah, not Colorado) she made a small donation to GRRR in the name of my dearly departed older brother Ben, who is actually a poodle, but who will always be remembered.) Kissey face to all! - Fiona
