Fur Baby Rescue

January 6, 2015 by Barbara

She was homeless and presented on the Humane Society’s TV program to be adopted.

She caught my eye, this little cutie pie.

I instantly knew she was mine.

So did 5 others.

The winner was a young girl and her mama. I was sincerely happy for them.

They told us to wait; sometimes things happen and change.

 

We left. I cried.

 

I felt so strongly that she was mine.

One year old, scared little pup. Housetrained, crate trained, perfect friend.

 

Oh well.

 

Then the phone call asking if I was still interested. What? Did I hear right? Lady is yours if you are still interested.

Yes! Oh Yes I am interested. She is mine. I just knew it!

Seems like it was yesterday but it’s been over 10 years. Ten years of walks, puppy kisses, hide-n-seek and joy with this little girl.

She makes me laugh and smile.

I knew she was mine the minute I saw her.

Lady

Welcome!


Hi Friend, Welcome to my corner of the online world, where I write to encourage and give hope. I believe everyone could use a dose of hope from time to time so whether you need hope for your marriage, your closet or anything in between, I hope you find some encouragement here.

Having been through some hard situations, I understand what it's like to live hopeless, depressed, angry and bitter. Until God rescued me in His Love and Grace. In Him, I found an Anchor to keep me safe and secure. My passion is to share how He has rescued me and give others encouragement, as He has for me.
