Sorry everyone, we've been a bit busy lately!
Unfortunately I have bad news. Well, bad news for us (beagle world members and Andrew and I), but VERY good news for Glover. He has found his forever home!
Glover went to his new home on Saturday to be with his pack. And by pack, I mean pack! Between the members of his new family, they own 6 beagles (including Glover)! Wasn't he lucky to go to Beagle Heaven! They range him age from a 9 week old puppy to a 13 year old girl who is living on borrowed time /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/cool.gif He will be permanently living with two beagles. Glover's new mum and dad have two daughters who both have beagles. One has two, the other has a beagle from the same breeder as Glover and a Border Collie.
The family met Glover last Monday at our local dog park. They fell in love straight away (as everyone did). They didn't want to make a snap decision and decided to wait and ring me on the Tuesday at 7pm. 7:02pm the phone rang and it was them telling me they'd love him because he's gorgeous. He could seriously have not gone to a better home. After I got off the phone to the new family, I burst into tears and picked my boy up and gave him cuddles. It's not the most attractive photo, but here's proof:
I know everyone thought he'd found his forever home with us, and as gorgeous as he was, he was different from our girls and couldn't be let off lead. This is a big part of our lifestyle with our girls, letting them off lead at the beach, off lead at my parent in laws and they always come back. Glover doesn't come back /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/cool.gif
We are confident we've found a great home for him. If it doesn't work out, they have the option to give him back. But I really don't think that will happen.
My girls have slept nearly all day and night since he left, I guess having a 6 - 8 month old puppy around really took it out of them!
One moves on and another under privledged beagle arrives soon. Meet Mojo, soon to be arriving in the Two Small Puppies house:
