She came in worried. She came in looking for something. She came in hoping to be fed and cared for... she came in looking to find a safe place to have her babies. Even though it was never said out loud, it was suspected that she was going to have a litter. After the vet said she was probably just having a false pregnancy, something made me say, no, and we did not put her up for adoption. She came into the home with a foster here already, a puppy foster added after she came, and ours and just accepted it all. She kept up with the schedule here like she had been doing it for years. She finally had her babies on May 1st, scared, unsure, at 2:30 am. There were 8 tiny, brindled babies and she needed help knowing how to care for them. She learned along with us. She was updated, chipped, and spayed after caring for her babies for 10 weeks. And then we waited. Why? I had a particular person in mind and was hoping that he thought what I thought. The last weekend in August they finally met for the first time! And they hit it off right away! She got to spend the night to make sure and then he got his house ready for a new four legged lucky girl. She went to her forever home to be a single dog for the first time in her life! Happy trails sweet Dixie girl!
