Daisy and Freddy are adopted together at Adoption Day at PetsMart

     Frank fell in love with Daisy and his wife Ashley wanted Freddie... so, the couple (who had come into Petsmart to look at dogs), compromised, and took both dogs home! Frank and Ashley had been wanting a dog for a long time for themselves and for their children, and finally have the room and a fenced yard with their new house. Their three young kids were visiting with other relatives, so will be in for a wonderful surprise when they come home to meet frolicky Freddy and beautiful, sweet Daisy.

     This was an interesting situation for the dogs, because the first time Daisy and Freddie were really together was when we let them run and play in Frank and Ashley's back yard. Daisy couldn't help but just run and run and look at the sky (for birds probably) in the large fenced-in back yard. Then, she and Freddie did some sniffing and playing. Freddie wanted to lie down next to Daisy. We think they'll be best of friends.We saw that Freddie was good with kids at the pet store, and we know that Daisy is great with kids, so we can't wait to hear how the family takes to one another!

     Congratulations Freddie, Daisy, and to their new guardian mom and dad, and the kiddos in the family too!

 

"What a big yard, Freddy!"
"Yeah, and look how high that wood fence is. I'm gonna have trouble climbing this one!"

"This is real nice," they both say, still wearing their "Adopt Me" bandanas.
