Oh Aly. I had tears in my eyes reading this. I don't know how you do it? I couldn't ever let one of my babies go, especially a dog. I mean, I have with small animals, but a cat or a dog would be too touch, especially a puppy. PLEASE do call her! Maybe you can invite her to Pet Talk? That way we can still see pictures of Sterling even after being adopted. You do a fantastic job, but I know how hard it can be. ((HUGS))
