What a terrific story, Aly! I know it must hurt your heart right now, but just think of how happy you'll feel to get that first photo of Bailey enjoying life in his new home. :) His humans surely must love him as much as you do!
http://plauder-smilies.com/crying2.gif I too somehow have missed this whole post, so I've gone through many days' emotions in one sitting.
Aly, you've done it once again. Put yourself on the front line of heartbreak for the good of these doggies that need a home and family. Congratulations, because your work has resulted in a good home for Bailey. Bailey will not forget the love you gave him. Please keep up the good work.
Aly,
I'm so happy that Bailey was chosen for a
Forever home, with people who seem to love him as much as you do!!
Bailey seemed to be SO ready to trust,love and bond again with his Very Own Special
family. WAY TO GO ALY !!!GOOD LUCK BAILEY !!!
Aly, your "goodbye story" made me cry. I know how hard it is to let someone go that you truly love, but he was ready and someone else needed him. And do you realize what a wonderful impression you gave those people of the shelter that you work at? Here you were so attached to this beautiful dog that you cried at his departure into his next adventure. That, in my opinion, speaks highly of the shelter, the employees, and of you. If I had an experience like that I surely would reffer all of my friends and family members to that shelter!
I know Bailey will never forget you, and he will always hold those special memories that he had with you in his heart and I know you will do the same. And what a perfect tribute, to one day adopt a perfect boxer and name him Bailey.
You guys have made me feel so much better. Whenever I just think of his name, tears automatically start flowing. I love him soo much. I guess things happen for a reason and he wasn't meant to be with me :( :( :( :(. He was meant to be with those nice people who just lost their beloved boxer.
Oh I forgot to tell you guys, a few hours after he got adopted, someone came in and reported a dead boxer on the road. Now, if you would like to see crazy, you should have seen me. I lost control and started freaking out. I called Bailey's new owners and tried to sound calm (didn't work) while I asked how he was doing. Thank goodness he was home safe. What a panic. I still felt awful for the dead one though :(
