Oodles adopted!!

Great weekend here! Do not yet have the full count on the puppies that were adopted this weekend, besides we are still open for another few hours!!

The big news is that Bugsy and Vinny have homes!!!!! YAY!!

Also, one of the older puggles got a great home thanks to a referral from Dr. Steed! Their wonderful dog was put to sleep 2 years ago and the family has been grieving ever since. You know...we hear that a lot..."I'm not gonna get another dog. Nobody was as wonderful as _____. It hurts too much when you lose them..."

Those statements are all very true. BUT here's some other stuff to think about:

If you are a dog lover, there's nothing fun about coming home to an empty house.

There is NOTHING IN THIS WORLD that compares to coming home to a dog that is happy to see you! All those love and kisses makes any hurt in the long run worth the while.

And here's something else, that I credit to Michele Steed for sharing with me (she says it better than I do): If you love dogs, and there are dogs who are homeless and need the love of a family, then it is selfish to not open your heart and your home to a dog in need, just because you're afraid you'll miss it when it's gone. After all, anything worth having, is worth crying over.

I've also heard that some people are afraid to get another dog, because they are afraid that loving another dog would be like cheating on the previous dog. Listen...your dog loved you so much and your dog loved how much you loved him or her. Dogs have big enough hearts that they would never want to deny another dog that kind of love. They think to highly of you for that.

And one last one: I don't want to get another dog, because we want to be able to travel. Well...we've got the solution for you! Your dog can go on vacation to Play N Stay Pet Camp and have a GREAT time!! No guilt traveling for you and your dog! Your dog will LOVE you for it!!

So, now what's your reason????
