That kind of happened with me and Chip. My sister lives in NY with her yorkie Zippy and works long hours. She adopted Chip from petfinder.com to bridge the gap when Zippy eventually passes. Since she works long hours I offered to take him to training class here, because I saw in him that if he wasn't trained he would really become a yorkshire terror. Living here he came out of his shell - activity level, personality wise, socialization, etc. I explained to her that he is very happy here, and he should live here with me. When she comes and visits he is happy to see her and all but knows this is his home now.
