Cowboy's New Family

With mixed emotions I'm here to report that Cowboy has found a new wonderful home. Our friends Ryan and Ambre contacted us after I put the first blog post up about Cowboy and told us they were interested in meeting him. We arranged for them to come over to see how their kids did with him and needless to say it went great!

Cowboy has been at their house for 2 weeks now and he is doing well. We got together with everyone on Sunday to have a little reunion. It was great to find that Cowboy hadn't forgotten us and he was very excited to see us. He was having a great time at Ambre's parents house playing with a couple of other dogs and playing in a little creek that runs at the end of their property.

Ambre takes him out on walks every morning and she is home all day watching some other kiddo's so Cowboy gets a lot of attention! Ambre has mentioned she feels bad taking him from us because he is such a good dog - don't feel bad Ambre we didn't have any other choice. I am just so thankful he went to a great home and is getting so much love from your family. I'm also thankful that this was an open adoption and we can see him whenever we want and that we get to hang out and just chat!

As a special treat we took Cowboy one of his favorite treats - a smoked ham bone that still has meat on it. A little secret that we know is that it gives him really bad gas - sorry guys. :)

Over the last two weeks we have really been missing him and feel like something was missing in our house- (especially when some food would fall on the floor - what a great mop he was). We left our play date all feeling a little sad again but happy too that he was so loved with his new family.

aww I'm glad he's happy..even though it breaks my heart that I'm not the one making him happy!!! Maybe that's a bit of how you are feeling, too. Looks like he's with a great family.
