Miss Lucy became available and needed a home.
We had lost our two Black Labs in the course of two years to old age. One of my husband’s clients is a dog breeder. We took the last puppy from the litter and the breeder was nice enough to hold her for us for a number of months while we cared for my BIL’s dog while he and his family were relocating from MN to WI for a job.
That, and we were finally ready for another addition to the family. :)
We also have two adopted cats (sisters; Foster Kitties for 4 years until they came to live with us); the transition has been hard on them, but while there has been a lot of spitting and hissing, I DID catch one of the cats rubbing up against Miss Lucy today.
There will be Peace in the Valley...eventually! :)
I’m glad Lucy found you guys.
I’m going through the trials of integrating a cat into the pack too. So far it has been less than a rousing success.
