It’s funny how things go. On a recent visit to the vet with our standard poodle Alex, we happened to see a picture of “Bethany”. Before our appointment was over I had asked if she was there so that my daughter and I could see her. There was something about her beautiful chocolate eyes. I was told that she was out with Kelly but that I could come back to see her another time. It wasn’t that big of a deal, after all, I just wanted to meet her, it wasn’t like I was actively looking for a dog. To our surprise, while we were checking out, in she came! Before I knew who she was, I was commenting on what a pretty girl she was and to my surprise – it was “Bethany”. We greeted her and spent some time with her. She instantly showed so much affection and interest in my daughter, Alex and me! After leaving, I couldn’t help but feel like I was missing her. I thought about her the rest of the day and called the office the next day to see if I could take her home for a trial. With three cats and another dog, I was worried that although she took to us, if she couldn’t fit in with the rest of the crew, it would be impossible for us to keep her. Her first day home was a little hectic as she explored the yard with Alex and then found each cat throughout the house, like a surprise waiting around every corner. As each day passed, she slowly gained their trust and her kind, good nature won them all over. She is an amazing dog. All of the love and attention that you provided her is evident. She has had such an long journey for such a little dog but, it is clear that she is finally home. From us to you, thank you. Your gift to our family is so welcome and appreciated. Bethany who is now called Ella, has made it to where she belongs and we cherish her –
