Some Fridays bring multiple adoptions (remember the glory days of “Five dog Fridays”, anyone?), some bring none, and others bring just one, but one which raises the spirits enormously.
Yesterday one of the volunteers remarked on how many large shepherd-type crosses there are at the SPA at present. This is undoubtedly true. I think it was mentioned in the blog on the day of Digs’s adoption, in fact. Yes, they are all different, and those volunteers who spend lots of time at the SPA do pretty well in differentiating between them all on site, as do the employees, naturally. And of course they each have very distinct characters.
Today it was Flip who stole the heart of his lucky new owners. Flip has been with us since early November 2015 and we were remarking just yesterday on what a great dog he has become since a somewhat nervous start.
Another dog to leave today was Alice, whose real name is Kaina. She had arrived on Tuesday and was a real beauty who I am sure would not have stayed long had she not been reclaimed. She is now identified, of course.
So a good Friday and hopefully tomorrow will bring yet more good news!
