Over a year and a half ago this dog showed up outside my house up in the mountains. He was skin and bones (last two slides), he looked so scared and sad. I fell in love immediately and took him in. At the time my housemate was incredibly firm about me not being allowed to have another dog and honestly I was pretty afraid of his reactions so I felt forced to rehome him to keep the peace at home. Me and my beautiful neighbours help to find him a beautiful family and he was happily settled with kids, cats, and the loveliest humans.
I thought about him often. He would pop into my mind and I would feel this deep sadness and send him love through the ether. It was hard to fathom that he was not with me. I felt so strongly connected to him that it honestly broke my heart.
Last week I thought I saw him walking. I missed him so much, which felt strange as I had only had him with me for two nights. I could not stop thinking about him, so I decided to reach out and check in with the woman who took him in. That is when I found out that, horrifically, their house burned down in August and they left the country devastated. This boy was placed in a shelter. He was safe, but with little exercise, and living just five minutes away from where I now live by the beach. I collected him the very next day (pic 1) and now he is back with me, where he will live for the rest of his life.
I knew deep in my soul he was always meant to be with me. It was just a matter of timing. I am beyond grateful and lucky to have this magical baby join my gang. Single mother of three and I could not be happier.
He integrated so easily and gently, and Chicky and Pancito both love him. He is mostly deaf, requires lots of play and snuggles, but mostly just loves to sleep.
He is my baby and I love him forever. How magical is the way the world can work sometimes. Sending love to you all ### 🤍✨
