Sound like she and George will have a wonderful life together.
Just think this all started with you stopping in traffic to rescue a sweet little Yorkie girl (I believe that is how it started for you and George). |
You are so right! I decided to keep a little male Yorkie we had at the rescue, and was taking him home after the adoption event that day at PetSmart, when an elderly lady came in looking for a companion. She had lost both her parents that winter, and her husband, three weeks prior, had committed suicide in their back yard after finding out he was terminal. Of all the dogs there, she picked out my little male Yorkie, and I bit my lip real hard. She clearly needed him as much as he needed her. They were a perfect match. At 6 pm, in front of everyone, I said to the director of the rescue to please keep an eye out at the shelters and mills for a little female for me to add to my family. At 10pm, I found Lucy running down the road in the snow. The first thing I said to George when I got her into the car was "God sent me this Yorkie". He laughed and shook his head. "God doesn't send Yorkies". I smiled, "Oh yes He does, and He sent me this one". Despite looking, no one ever claimed poor old, sick Lucy, but I already knew that no one would. Now, sixteen months later, I've fostered 7, and will be the proud owner of three. And you know what. I will NEVER go back to a day without being owned by these adorable little balls of fluff and love.
