OZZIE
FROM
PATRICE, S.A.V.E.
Here
are pictures of Renee and Patrice when they brought Ozzie to be adopted by his
wonderful new parents, Jane and Paul.
Jane and Ozzie had a heart-to-heart
discussion, then Jane introduced Ozzie to "his" yard, Jane, Renee, Patrice and
Ozzie went for his first walk as an adopted pet!
Then Ozzie supervised as Jane and Paul signed
the adoption papers, Renee, Patrice and Jane pose with Ozzie, and then one last
hug from Renee and Patrice, and we left the happy family to bond!
Ozzie is one of the
Little Dog House Project Dogs that the S.A.V.E. volunteers have been working
with since last summer, and we are all so thrilled that he has been transformed
from an animal orphan into a beloved pet in a loving home of his own with a
wonderful family to love him!
FROM JANE, OZZIE'S NEW MOM
Hey Patrice
I worked all weekend and got home very late
last night.....but Ozzie spent a very fulfilling weekend with Paul (and some of
his family here and there).
He has definitely warmed up to us a lot.....his tail wags a lot and he
comes to us and licks us....we have gone on long walks with him.....and yes he
made a big wicked putrid smelling soft disgusting doody on Saturday
morning.....and since then he has repeated this feat on a daily
basis.....
Oh, always
outside so far.....he likes his crate and chooses to go in there on his own
whenever he wants and does not come out until he's
ready......
He walks very
well and is rather well behaved.....we'll give him some more time to figure out
his territory, etc. and see if he has other colors that run deep.....
Paul and I love him and
he seems to be a great dog.....just a little while ago we were in the backyard
playing with him.....he does run beautifully.....he likes to leap onto this
(moderately sized rubber) ball we're playing with and then he shakes it
vigorously with his teeth.....he is very funny and we are getting a kick out of
him.....
I'm sure there
are many more things I could tell you but I can't think of them
now.....
Thank you so
much for bringing Ozzie into our lives.....he is wonderful.....
Jane
And in another
update
Paul and I are
convinced that Ozzie is very happy here.....he wags his tail a lot and he
pounces around playing with his toys and with us.....we love him!!! We feel
lucky that we got him.....we'll give him a couple more weeks till his true
personality completely shows.....but if it remains the way it is, wow.....he is
a great dog.....
Thanks
again for everything.....
Paul & Jane .....and especially Ozzie
This

dogs at the Little Dog House. Here she was walking and hugging Ozzie, before he
got adopted!
Ozzie and Jane have
a heart-to-heart

hey patrice...
just a note to tell you how wonderful ozzie is and how much we love
him and he clearly loves us also.
he has gone from a clearly unhappy and troubled dog to a happy and
playful and always energetic little boy. he protects the house, barking at
anyone ringing the bell...he has learned s much and is a delight. he makes us
smile just be being himself.
we feel so lucky to have him cause his happier personality is becoming
the more dominant one as time passes...i wish you could see him. he is such a
good boy...and he plays so well with other dogs...we go to the dog run, our
next door neighbors got a golden retriver puppy about 7 months...they love to
play together...
as you
know we fenced our yard and he has many balls and just has fun...he is the
best...
just wanted to
say thanks again...ozzie gives you a lick...
