Maddie has left the building.

Our foster pup Maddie was adopted by a sweet young married couple today. Mike came with me to do the home visit as well as make sure that I wasn't abducted by crazy people. I was fairly sure this wouldn't happen after talking to Laura, Maddie's new mom, but you can never be too careful when going to a stranger's home.

Maddie walked in and started sniffing around while we talked with Laura and her husband. Just as I turned around to see where Maddie was, I saw her pee on her new parents carpet. Maybe not the best introduction, but I quickly explained to them that she isn't very used to carpet, so it may take a little time for her to adjust.

Her new family was very excited to welcome her into their home and had even bought a new dog bed, crate, food, toys, etc. She will be one happy spoiled pup!

I tried taking a few pictures, but every single one turned out with a blurry Maddie due to her moving around a bunch. haha

This is the best I could do.

As I checked-in on her this evening I was told she was laying on floor watching her new mom make dinner. I think this will be a perfect match and I am so happy for Maddie and her new family!

Although it's always bittersweet to see a foster leave, it opens up our home to welcome a new foster dog into our family. We aren't waisting any time in welcoming a black female great dane into our home tomorrow. She was picked up as a stray and is being held at the Athens dog pound. She has a tumor on her belly and a skin condition that will need to be looked at. What should we call her?
