Phoebe is a three years old hound mix. She became known to many because she kept ending up on the kill list at a shelter over and over. Luckily for her, no new animals needed her space. She was pulled, along with a male, because of generous donations and a potential adopter out of state. They both then began their adventure. Seeing her photo on social media, and the fact that she looks a lot like a member of DreamABull, I decided that helping her transport from Dubuque to Milwaukee would be a wonderful part of rescue. However, the phone that was given as her adopter's went dead the day we met her. No one knew why. What was the explanation? Her male companion made it to his forever home and she continued her journey with the hopes that the number would be answered. We were asked to keep her for the night when the number still not answer and we had arrived to the meeting place. And then we were informed that her intended owner passed away before she made it to her home. Some suggested we send her back. Back? Where?! She became the first female foster at DreamABull! During a walk during her first 24 hours with us, a neighbor said she was a sweet honey. Because she never responded to her given name, we tried Honey and she responded! One fateful day, she was taken along to a historical time line event. A family saw her and stated interest. A week later she went for a home visit and loved each family member. The following weekend, she went home with them. What adventures she has had to get to this point. <smiling> Honey, you are the first one to make me really sad. Not for you, for our home. You have been the most calm foster we have ever unexpectedly had. May your life always be as happy as when you saw them again Honey.
