Another Goodbye

Today we gave our dog, Luke, back to the rescue society we adopted him from six years ago. We just couldn't take him with us on our cross-country move. Plus, with two kiddos at home he hasn't been getting the attention (namely runs and walks) that he deserves. So while the kids were having their morning nap today, a lady from the rescue society picked him up. I hated to do it, but I truly believe that he has a better home waiting for him. What stinks even more is that he was Chris's dog and he didn't get to say goodbye.
I'm going to miss my shadow, my guard-the-bedroom-door, let-me-know-if-there-is-anyone-anywhere-near-our-yard dog. However, I think that Garrett will miss his reading buddy more. Even more, I think our cat Felix will miss him the most.

Hey girl,
I'm so sorry you had to give your sweet dog back. I can't imagine! But also glad your little sweet girl is doing better.

Thanks for all of your support and kindness!

Awww, Beckie I am sorry you had to give the dog back. I am sure it was heart breaking. But I am sure he will be a blessing to another family!
Hugs,
