Happy 7th Gotcha day, Jadie! 12/29 - 1 day late

[Scooter's Mom]

When we got Jadie, hubby wasn't really wanting a dog. I was looking through the "classifieds" we had online at my work. It was just for employees to post things on. I found the listing. "Small white dog, 2 years old. Spayed. Loves kids. $150.00" I called the extension listed and arranged to meet that night. We had to drive 45 minutes out of our way (hah, which is way closer to town than we live now!) to go see her.

We met in a gas station parking lot. They arrived and the guy (Brent) let Jadie out of his car and she was just adorable. She was perfect. We fell in love and gave him his $150.00. His story was that they were moving and couldn't take her b/c their new house had no fenced in yard and the coyotes would get her. We couldn't let THAT happen. So, home she went. (Personally, I think it was too much for them having a 2 yr old and a dog too)

I don't have any really good recent photos. I'll have to work on that!
Our world would never have been the same without you, our Jadie Lady.

Your Jadie is adorable, no doubt about it. Of course, I totally understand that you can't imagine life without her. Poor little thing--wonder what she thought when her original owners sold her. Personally I can't imagine getting rid of any of my pets; they're family. I'm glad you got her because I am sure you have been very good to her & love her immensely & vice versa. Kay in NC

Awww congratulations to you both. hope many more gotcha days pop by :D
shes super cute indeed.

almost exactly how Kirby came about as well. except the lady didnt mention coyotes or no fence,, she just said that they were moving to a place that didnt allow dogs.
