ROSIE IN GEORGIA

Ladies and gentlemen, you were absolutely right. It took no time at all to introduce our first foster into the home after offering up our services.

Here's a quick recap of the first approximate 24 hours.

After a beautiful, peaceful drive to Nashville yesterday morning, I was introduced to Tracie Cotton and her "brood;" among them was Rosie, the little Cairn we agreed to foster. What a cutie!


She immediately hopped up on Tracie's couch to check out Tipsy, our Cairn who made the trip with me, and we quickly got acquainted.

We had a good, quiet trip home and we're settling in nicely. She's a little timid and "jumpy," but understandable, as she's been in two different homes in a short period of time.


She's learning the routine here (potty breaks, mealtime, etc.) and shows every sign of being a quick study. She's eating lightly and Tipsy has shared her precious treats with her!

We all took a nap on the couch together (Tipsy, Rosie & me), which she LOVED.


There's this great mix of unconditional love mixed with sadness in this little dog's eyes; who knows what her past history really is?

What matters now is everything is going forward, and we are committed to making her time with us a rewarding, learning, happy experience for her.

Thanks, everyone, for your trust and for your support.

TRACIE COTTON:
I'm so glad that Rosie is settling in so nicely! It looks like Rosie & Tipsy will have a lot of fun together! Thank you so much for becoming a foster home. I know for me it's pretty rewarding and a great way for me to "give back." Give both of them a hug from me, and give Tipsy a little extra, since she's been so good about sharing her treats!!

Thank you so much for fostering . . . Rosie was with me for a bit, but was not a good fit, so glad she is happy with you all. She is the sweetest girl, with her eyes baring her soul.
