Buddy's Tale
Everyone was so supportive last fall when we gave up our pup Buddy to the Sheltie Rescue here. We have been in contact with the rescuer and I wanted to let you all know that Buddy has done very well in his new home (he's been renamed Charlie)! He is an only dog and there are no children. He's overcoming his shyness bit by bit.
The rescue organization promised us that they would remember us if they heard of a Sheltie needing a home and that would be older and not be hard on our elderly Sheltie Maggie Mae. 3 weeks ago they called and said a breeder had a 7-year old blue merle female they would like to adopt out. She is a darling and she's ours!! She's never been a pet but never been abused or neglected either. She had to learn her name and how to be in a house. She's doing so well. She is both an American and Canadian champion and has become a real member of our family. She and Maggie Mae basically ignore one another but are never competitive.
A happy ending!! Thanks again to everyone who helped us make up our minds about our little Buddy (Charlie!).
