    Well, I went to visit the family who is interested in Roxey. I really liked them, and they were so nice. On our way home, I got a call on my cell phone from a lady who seen my ad on Petfinder and was interested in Roxey.

    She and her husband live on a 10 acre piece of land right on a HUGE lake. They have an 11 year son and the mom works from home. I am going to try and see them early next week and compare homes.

    All of a sudden, everyone wants Roxey!!!

    There's an easy fix to this "problem"...

    Hey Souraya ~

    You've found TWO worthy homes for Roxey - but only have one Roxey?

    Easy fix - just run out and find another Homeless Dawggie - can be Roxey II .

    First Family gets Roxey I; and the Second Family gets Roxey II! No problem here!

    Then next week, it's Roxey III

    He!He!He! Phred, I was actually thinking of taking the family that doesn't get Roxey to the shelter and ask if they want to adopt one from there. I hope they go for the idea.

    If only all homeless dogs biggest problems were where to go! Sounds like either home will be good for Roxey! Good luck making a choice!

    OK. I got contacted yesterday by yet ANOTHER party who is interested in Roxey! This family is a young newly wed couple. I sent them an e-mail with my questionnaire and will see what they come up with. The lady sounded so nice and sweet. She is also a runner, like me!

    I am so excited about having so many homes to choose from for Roxey!

    Good luck! The shelter idea is great. Talk all the ones that don't get Roxie into adopting from a shelter.

    Roxey Has A New Home

    Well, I have finally found the right home for Roxey!

    After getting back from Greenville, I headed to Atlanta to meet Amanda who was very interested in Roxey. She and her mom had left me two dozen voicemails each!

    Amanda is 26 and is a doll. She is a dertmatologist assisstant and lives in a very nice apartment complex, right across the street from the DOGGY PARK. She was so excited to meet Roxey. She had a welcoming committee there: her parents and sisters! She also had a fresh bowl of water for Roxey and a bag of treats. We visited for a while and Roxey explored the place and got loved on for an hour.

    After speaking with Amanda, I decided that is where Roxey will go. She gets spayed this week and will be going to her new mommy on the weekend.

    I am so happy that I found her a good home. Amanda is a sweetheart and will take excellent care of her. I think they are a match made in heaven and Roxey loves Amanda! I am so sad to see her go, but I know she will have a great life. I have gotten so attached to her.

    Thank you everybody for all you support.
