A Gotcha Day

Ruths4Greys Jun 23, 2009 12:51 PM

Today is Lauren's 7th Gotcha Day. I can't believe it's been 7 yrs. already. She is still our very special baby girl. Lauren, you came into our lives when we needed you most. We had just lost our shepherd/collie, Lucy 2 days before and we were very much upset. You arrived at the rescue 2 days later, right from the track. Your racing days were over, but your life was about to begin. Oh how happy you have made us through the yrs. Your constant smile makes even the bleakest days bright up. You showed us what a greyhounds love really is. You were our first greyhound and we had no idea how to even train you. You had to learn our steps, which you did in 1 day. You had to learn what a home really was and how to finally relax. You learned very quickly and so did we. Because of you, Lauren, we have three more special greyhounds in our life and you made me want to foster as many greyhounds as I can for as long as I can. Your deep devotion and loving spirit has made my life worthwhile and I will always have greyhounds in my life. Happy Gotcha Day Lauren. I love you so very much. Soon I will make you liver brownies to celebrate with.

Hope you had a super day Lauren.....try to make your celebrations last at least one day for each of those seven years if you can though! May you have many more happy years with your loving family.

Happy Gotcha Day Lauren. I love you so very much. Soon I will make you liver brownies to celebrate with.

Happy Seventh Gotcha Day, Lauren. Enjoy your liver brownies.
Katie says tell you that liver brownies are the best part of a Gotcha Day even if you do have to share them with your siblings.

Dogs and cats come into our lives, and too quickly go leaving pawprints on our hearts, and we will never be quite the same again.
