I hope you get to give him a forever home. There is nothing wrong with naming him for some one you love that has died. We name children after relatives all the time, living and dead.
I help with fosters and rescues too. I have had people sit on the fence many times. They will call and say I need to do this, then put it off over and over. I know how heart wrenching that would be, if I wanted the little one for my own.
My Vets office called and ask if I could help feed some puppies, because their mother died. I said sure. The lady called me, we chatted, and I took two puppies to feed for 5 weeks. She had 11 Newfoundland puppies. Now that was an experience! I still cried when they left. Yes, you get attached but can give them up to a forever home because you know it is the right thing to do. Hope she sends Romeo to you. Hugs |
