Say Hello to Foster #2... Daisy. She may just be the cutest little pup ever. Daisy has the best personality and loves other dogs. She's also a total snuggle bug, I can't even go to the bathroom without her following me.
We're not exactly sure why Daisy was dropped off at the shelter. I can't imagine why someone would want to give up this sweet little pup. After the first week, Daisy finally got a haircut. Doesn't she look like a completely different dog?!
After just 1 week I became 110% attached. The thought of giving her to someone would bring me to tears. I had to sit down and really think about why I was doing all of this. Every time I foster a dog, I pull them out of the shelter and allow another dog an opportunity at freedom. Chicago Animal Care and Control puts down hundreds of dogs and cats a month. It's absolutely heart breaking. It's a constant rat race to save animals. After a heart to heart with myself, I realized that I couldn't keep Daisy. I had to find her a new home.
After hearing my daily stories about Daisy, a friend and co-worker Karen applied to Rain Dog Rescue, to adopt Daisy. She herself does a lot of volunteer work at Animal Care and Control and was quickly approved.
Here she is in her new home and with her new sister. She just adores other dogs.
Karen gave me Daisies as a thank you for her new baby, now named Sophia <3
I'm told the pain of loosing her will get easier... :(
