Every Dog Deserves A Kid!

Today has started out great! At eleven o’clock, Anna E. had an appointment to come out to possibly adopt one of our dogs. She told me about her elderly dog, and she was looking for a dog to be a companion to her, and her children. I took Anna and her kids straight to Ringo’s pen! When we walked up, Ringo’s tail was wagging ninety miles an hour! It was love at first sight for them and him! I loved it!

John helped us get into Ringo’s pen, and it was a match made in heaven! The young children wanted Ringo and so did Anna! “ I have one question to ask you. Ringo, wants to know if y’all have air conditioning?” I said.

“Yes,” Anna said. “And, we have a doggie door, too, and my son just told me twenty minutess ago—that the Beatles are his new favorite band.”

“Then we’ve got us an adoption!” I said. “Congratulations Ringo Starr! Today’s your day!” Ringo knew that he was being adopted! He was smiling and his tail was wagging so fast, I was scared that he might stir up a Texas dust storm! “Let me go to the trailer and get the adoption papers. I’ll be right back.

I drove Kermit up to the trailer. The Beatles were singing 'Give Peace A Chance' on my ipod Bose idock! I wrote up the adoption contract, and by the time I went back outside—John was taking pictures of them with Ringo. I wished that I had thought to bring my camera. Anna loaded up Ringo into a fancy crate in her luxurious SUV and then drove away.

I was so happy for Ringo. He really lucked out—he got three kids! I'm calling Kinky!

P.S. Thank you, Dr. Sam H.—for rescuing Ringo up in Johnson City, last summer! He has finally found his family!

RIngo made it home with us. He was quiet and content in the crate in our car. He was a lovely houseguest at our friend's home in San Antonio and is at home here in Houston. Winnie and he are fast friends, he mastered the dog door right away and is happily lounging in his air-conditioned mudroom with access to the backyard as I write this.

Nancy, What is your email so that I can send you the photo John took.

Anna

PS. I tried to post a moment ago, but don't know if it made it. We loved Ringo before we got out of the rescue ranch driveway!
