A Permanent Home

If it doesn't work out this time, well, ... it will work out this time. We're sure of it. Roxie has a new home, with a fabulous family. They're "dog people." And you can't beat dog people.

The husband is a co-worker of my husband's and his daughter is a senior in high school. He and his wife have three other children grown and out of the house. The daughter will be attending community college for two years, so will be sticking around. Roxie will be her dog, but the parents are just as excited as she is. They have one dog named Ed. He's the most-spoiled dog I've ever met. He has his own couch.

The family came over to our house last night to meet Roxie and they loved her. She was a little unsure and shy. We agreed to visit their house this afternoon with Roxie.

It was an awesome house on a great chunk of land. They have an invisible fence and a carport so the dogs can get under shelter if they need to. We were informed Roxie would be sleeping in their daughter's bedroom. That was a sign to us of how much they wanted Roxie and how much she would be loved.

I'm not sad that Roxie's gone, unlike last time. She's exactly where she needs to be.
