You know, after 7 years of rescue work, it seems that "letting them go" gets easier. There is the rare one that gives my heart more than a little tug when he/she leaves. Yes, I get teary-eyed, but I realize that THIS is why I do this, and that it's all for the best.
BUT
I just got a wonderful application for Buford and my stomach is in knots. I didn't realize how much I've grown to love this dog. I absolutely adore him and it's going to kill me when he leaves. I'm actually in tears thinking about it.
Jack, the boy hit by a car also has a home, and I'm truly happy for him, but with Buford, it's a totally different story. I know a home with only one other dog would be awesome for him and he'd get all the 1:1 attention that he deserves, but still, a very selfish part of me is saying NOOOO.... find SOMETHING wrong with this app!!! But alas- I can't. It seems perfect.
Please say a prayer of strength for me. The last time I felt this was when Sophie left. (Sorry Janet!!) It is VERY hard for some reason!!!
I mean LOOK AT THIS FACE!!!
