| I would let her know how Mikki is doing and share pictures with her. I am of the opinion that if you took Mikki to see her it woud confuse her. My Little Luci that I took in as rehome at the end of May, I have stayed in touch with her owner if he text's me and I answer back and I have also sent him pictures of her. But I would not want to upset Luci by taking her to see him. Luci has adjusted really well here and I think it would really confuse her.

| I would think that having to rehome her had to be so hard, how could it not be? We don't know how she handled it after she was gone, people handle things differently. I'm not sure what I would do but it just made me think about how hard it had to be.

| I would mention to her how well she has adjusted and that you love her very much! My little one is almost 3 years old, bought as a puppy, and his breeder and I still keep in touch. She loves to hear about how well he is doing, etc...

| Has she contacted you asking about Mikki? I think I would show her pics, even if she never did care about Mikki I dont believe that would hurt. If she did care I am sure she would love to see them

| Rhonda I wouldn't make a trip into the store to talk to Mikki's former owner, but if I was there and she was working I would tell her how much you love Mikki and how good she is doing. I agree with several others..It would be too confusing for Mikki to take her to see the lady.

| Rhonda.. I would say Hello, tell her How mikki is.. maybe share pictures. I would not take Mikki because it could be very painful for the girl and for Mikki. We don't really know what is in the girls heart, she tried to do what was best by rehoming Mikki to you. If it is painful for her it would be nice to let her know it was a good thing to rehome her but not rub salt into the wounds.

| I have decided to not take Mikki with me. I'm still not sure I should go at all. But I do think, after reading all your comments, that taking Mikki in would not be a good idea. Maybe I should go there and see if she recognizes me? Then if she does, I could bring up Mikki and show pictures. But I do agree taking her would not be a good idea. Thanks so much for the suggestions!

Donating YT 2000 Club Member | I love hearing from the folks that have my puppies and dogs. And to see pictures. Once in awhile I run into them at the groomers, and the dogs come running into my arms without any prompting from me, lol. I think in your situation, tell the former owner how much the dog means to you and how well she is doing. She'll appreciate it. |

| I am still in touch with the girl I got Charlie from I send her pictures and keep her updated on Charlies health She had a store close to my home for awhile with clothes and grooming and such and we went to visit quite often, she really likes to hear from me to know how Charlie is doing.

| Coco's first mommy lives upstairs from me and we see her often or she'll come to visit occasionally. Frankly I get jealous when Coco greets her with such excitement - which Coco does with all her human friends - but this one gets my nose a little out of joint! I know - I need help! LOL |

| to me the answer is simple, it depends on how the rehoming was done and what happened right afterwards. If the original owner did not seem interested in knowing what happend to Mikki or ask to keep in touch or get updates then why bother. I am glad you have decided not to bring Mikki in because if she remembers her first owner it might make her very nervous that she will be going back to her. Also if you do let the old owner see you and or pictures of Mikki what if she says "Oh I would love to see her, bla bla bla", then what will you do, you will have to say no and give a reason why. My thoughts are if she left her with you and did not express interest in seeing her again, don't open a can of worms, leave well enough alone. You need to only think about Mikki, not the old owner. LOL I know if I did the great job you did with Mikki I would sort of want to flaunt it, like look at my pretty girl now see how happy and healthy she is with me, but unless you want to take the risk that she asks to see Mikki I would stay far far away.
