The Search Continues

September 24, 2007

Hi everyone! Bradley here with the latest on my Perfect Pet Parent search. Well, I have some good news and some not so good news, but no bad news, whew! The not so hot news is that I still haven’t found a new family to go home with. The good news is that the reason I’m not in my forever home yet is because even though we got so many super essays from awesome people, we just haven’t found the PERFECT pet parent for me.

You see, because I have special needs from being sick, it’s not as easy as it seems to find someone who has just the right environment for me. So many people came so close, but then had just one thing that wouldn’t be ideal for my health. So, the search continues.

Even though I feel like I have ants in my pants and am all anxious to go to my forever home, I know that if it’s not the perfect environment for me, I’ll get sick again. I sure don’t want that to happen. So many people wrote to me with so much love in their hearts, that honestly, I wish I could live with every single one of them.

So, while the League keeps going through all the essays and letters (and there were tons of them), I’ll wait patiently and run all over the place and jump up and down and chew the shoe and bark at the cat and eat my leash and knock over the cup! As you can see, I have lots to keep me busy while I wait!

And to be honest, I really don’t mind spending a little more time with my special League family – especially my very favorite – Alice. She sure is pretty and takes me for walks all the time and talks to me like I’m a big boy, but treats me like her little baby. We hang out and play every day, and we even talk about important topics like how I shouldn’t eat rocks ‘cause I’ll get a tummy ache. She sure is super.

In fact, everyone at the League is super. I love them, and sometimes get sad when I think of leaving them. But luckily, even after I’m adopted, I’ll be staying close by and can visit! I just know everything is going to work out fine!

Talk to ya later, and I’ll keep you posted!


So Many Essays - So Little Time

August 31, 2007

Dear all the people,

This is Bradley. I need to talk to you like a big boy now. I just needed to tell you guys about the amazing essays that keep coming in about why people would want to adopt me. I’m even getting mail from people who can’t adopt me, but want to tell me how much they love me anyway. Can you believe it? I have to tell ya… a couple of them made me cry. Everyone is so nice to me. People who never even met me care about me. I’m a very lucky dog. Sometimes, right before I fall asleep at night, I can hear the essays being read to me in my head. It always makes me have exciting dreams about living in a home with a backyard and chewie toys and people to jump on… I mean play with (I’m still working out a few behavior kinks).

Soon, some people will be picked from the essays, and I’ll finally get to meet these people who want to give me a good home. I get so excited when I think about it. It won’t be long now before I have a real family of my very own.

I know I said this before, but I really hafta mention it again. I have so many dog and cat friends here at the League that also need loving families. I feel bad that some of them won’t go to their new homes. I know the League takes great care of us all, but there’s just something so special about having your very own family. If I could make just one wish, it would be for a big cookie…NO!. WAIT! .. I got distracted for a minute. It would be for all of my friends to find families to love.

My friends at the League thought that maybe you would like to read some of these super letters. You can find them at:

Thanks for listening. I’m going to go see if more essays came in. I love to hear them read to me. It makes me know that soon my dream will come true. See ya soon!


Love and Biscuits,

Bradley
