Well I am glad everything worked out for him. Next time you should both be on the same page picking out a dog.

You pulled him out of a bad situation and found him a good situation, what more could a doggy want? I've had potential keepers who turned into fosters when they turned out not to be a great fit for my household. (A biting cocker spaniel who hated kids when we still had kids in the house, and a boa who was very docile when I got her because she was so sick....then as she got healthier with good husbandry and veterinary care she get nastier and nastier...until she was a healthy snake who I was terrified of.) I worked hard to find the right home for both of those animals, and it worked out great for everyone involved.

Yeah, we've discussed that we're going to think the next dog through a lot better, meet it several times before bringing it home and evaluate it with the pets to see if it will work.

Well I'm glad you had success stories with your pets too. I felt awful about having to do this, but it was definitely the best thing for him.

Oh, and the person that took him is supposed to email me updates, so if I get any of those, I'll keep everyone else updated too .

You did good, you saw a dog in a bad situation and you made it better for him.
