On this day in 2013 I was plucked from the kennel at the rescue centre and driven to my new home. It was my Gotcha Day. I had no idea then what was to happen to me but I know I am safe, loved and cared for.
Even the addition of Lenny to the pack changed little after the initial fun and games and we have grown to be good buddies. I am growing older and as will have been seen from previous posts, I am getting wobblier and susceptible to infections and illnesses. It is all part of life’s rich pageant and I cannot change it. Nor would I want to change it. I will press on regardless with my usual aplomb and lack of complaint.
Twelve years and thirteen Christmases have passed. My life is happy, safe and I am loved. If I could wish only one thing for fellow rescue furs it would be that they have the same security as I have. Oh and more treats of course.

Wishing all the best to you and Lenny and your family for 2026.

You are truly blessed to have such loving Humans in your life. Your “Gotcha Day” was the best day of your life because it was the first day of the forever after life you’ve always dreamt of. What a blessed pup you are!! May all the dogs in shelters and rescues receive a forever after Gotcha Day too. We can always pray that, right? And for more treats in 2026…of course). lol!!
