Rags to Riches in 4 days!

This little guy is our most recent homeward bound dog. He travelled to his new house of love on Friday for a "trial" and his new owner reports his trial is over. He is has found his new home. She calls him Teddy. It's quite a long story as to how Teddy came to us, but the short story is as follows. He was picked up in Mitchell County by one of my mother's friends. My mother in turn tells her friend to bring the dog up to Leesburg Animal Hospital and we would put him on the blog and try to find him a home. This all took place on Monday March 1. On Friday March 4, just three days later, my mother found someone to give him a potential home. As with all the animals we try to place, if they don't work out they are certainly welcomed to come back to us; this is what we told Mrs. Jordan, Teddy's potential owner, when she picked him up on Friday. Saturday morning my mom gets a call from Mrs. Jordan who says Teddy will NOT be coming back to the clinic. He has won Mrs. Jordan over. She took him out for a joy ride and dropped by the assisted living home to pick up her mother so all three of them could have a morning out. She says Teddy was the best dog to have in the car. He rode the whole time in Mrs. Jordan's mother's lap.
It warms our heart to know we have gotten another homeless animal off the streets and into a loving home. Teddy will no longer have to scrounge for food, search for shelter, or drink out of mud puddles. I am sure tonight he has plate full of food, a bowl full of water and very possibly his very own brand new fluffy bed....or maybe he sleeps in Mrs. Jordan's bed! Even better!
