Miss Pit on 8/29/2011, 10:47 pm

I'm both very happy

and a little sad. I hope they'll give you updates on the little man. I enjoyed Gwegowee's pictures and antics that you've shared with us.

I suppose Hazel is doing back flips?

Go Gwegorwee! Great news! As another aging hippie, I know we offer pretty damn good homes for foundling dogs. Very Happy

Awwww, that's such great news!!!! We're gonna miss the little guy.

Congratulations to Gwegowee for finding his forever home!! They sound perfect. I hope they keep in touch with you so we can get updates. Yes, I'm greedy like that.

Another happy ending.

Absolutely!!! Sounds like he got amazingly lucky - and so did they.

...even if he did not get a Doxie Playmate to inspire him :-)

Well, they will be changing his name to ......wait for it......Tanzing.

Tanzing was the name of Edmund Hilary's Sherpa guide and climbing partner. Can't say I'm jazzed about the name, but hey, I often change my new dogs names so who am I to gripe.

They decided that given his agility/leaping and climbing abilities, a sherpa name made sense.

Glad the home visit went well.

Just catching this....Congrats to everyone. I hope he has a very happy life with his new family!

Me, too. I'm going to bawl my eyes out, but this a good home for him and I'm so tired of living on the second floor with three dogs--one of whom really wants to play and have fun--this is a win-win for everyone.

Snifter&Toddy on 8/30/2011, 10:26 am

Oh, good for Gwegowee. And he will always be Gwegowee as far as I am concerned!

Way to go! They sound like a fantastic home. Congratulations!

It sucks when a foster has what we consider a perfectly lovely name and the people go and change it to something else, either pedestrian or eccentric. My former foster Fletcher is now known as "Buddy." Yawn!

LOL--well, I wasn't charmed with Gregory when he first came, but it grew on me. And at least this is a unique name and not some stupid little dog name like Fluffy.

I left him at his new home sprawled on his back on his new dad's lap.......
