Netherlands another
Scooby dog has found a loving forever home, like
many many others in
the past and hopefully in the future. The mail below
is from the new
owner and gives an impression not only on Yaris´happiness
but also on her´s;-)
When the doors of the bus opened I
immediately saw her big sweet face between all the 19 dogs and got instant
goosebumps over my whole body! What a weird sensation and as Esmee said: “and
this is how it's supposed to feel!”
The arrival from Spain was delayed, so
after all those hours, she finally came of the bus, shivering and upset. But
after a few minutes she recovered and calmed down super fast.
We went
to introduce her to my dog Katie, who was waiting in the car. During our
wait for the transport we took Katie for a walk with two other shelter dogs.
Katie is quite picky in her choice of friends. But when we took Katie out of
the car to meet Yaris the first thing we saw was how Yaris pressed her big nose
against Katies, two dog noses saying hello. Another great thrill, that first
impression! From that moment on the match was perfect and they walked together
as they have known each other for years. Thanks to Yaris' happy, social and
stable character our Katie transformed into a lively, happy and above all
relaxed dog. Fantastic!
When all the papers were made and we
were going home I walked towards the fence and said: “Who's going with me??” en
yes, Yaris came running straight away! What a feeling, a super click from all
sides!
At home Yaris had to discover the whole
house of course and ended up in her new bench, satisfied. The only thing she
had to be corrected in, was her claiming the food, all the food, Katies and
ours. But this took only one day of correction and after that she was perfect:
we can leave the bench open day and night and I don't have to hide bones, Yaris
totally understands it and has respect for us all, amazing!! She can really
look at you like she is saying: “I understand you” when you say this is not the
way she should behave and gently push her away so you can eat quietly without
her jumping on top of the counter.
I have to say we were very very lucky to
have adopted such an intelligent calm Shepherd who has learned the house rules
and more super fast!
A few days later:
All together I have to say it is going
really well! She has found her place in the family and outside it's going
great; Yaris and Katie run and play a lot together in the forest and afterwards
they sleep next to each other just peacefully..
A big thank you to everybody for all the
care and hard work you do for all the animals. Thanks to you we were able to
adopt our third dog. Thank you!
Roelanda, Katie and of course Yaris (now
Lisa)
P.S.
What do you think as Yaris as a service
dog?
She walks very proud beside my mother's
wheelchair like they never did otherwise, unbelievable..
Yaris´ brother ARCO is still waiting to be adopted. Do you have space for this
great boy?
