Surprise Guests from Chicago!

Casey, Vikki, and Pepper.  Pepper is being shy!

We had a surprise guest show up at our Bake Sale a few weeks back.  Vikki and Casey Morris stopped by on their way home to Chicago to say hi, and they brought Pepper!  Pepper was adopted through FOPCP, and Shannon Wyatt coordinated a transport to Chicago so that Pepper could be with her new family.  Vikki sent us some photos, and told us a little more about Pepper's new family life.  Here's what she said...

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We knew from the picture she would be perfect. Pepper started out a little timid, but there is little sign of that now! She immediately took to the two sisters she has come to be inseparable from. As for the humans in her life, we could not have known how sweet this “pound dog” would turn out to be. This is the only way we will ever get another dog; shelter dogs really are one of the best things in life. 

Pepper and her sisters!

The past year with Pepper has been full of firsts for her; we try and take her and her sisters everywhere and she has become quite a self-taught hunter! Every day starts with a burst of energy and ends with her exhausted and curled up in bed with us. We cannot thank FOPCP enough for helping us come together with our little mutt. Your help in not only facilitating us getting her, but with her long transport to us made it all possible. All along we thought we were saving this little dog, but our great times over the past year has us wondering exactly who was really helping who.

It is AWESOME to hear success stories like this, and we feel very honored that Vikki and Casey took time out of their vacation just to say hi.  Seeing this happy family together is very inspiring.  We hope more people like the Morris family will adopt from overcrowded shelters rather than buy a pet from a breeder.   Rescue pets make the best pets!   Thank you, Vikki and Casey, for giving Pepper such a wonderful home!         

Now THOSE are happy dogs!
