My Rescue

I can never quite articulate the amount of joy that Finn has brought into our lives. He is a constant companion, an explosion of fur, a tailless wonder. I can still remember the day I drove to Stockton to pick him up after David found him on Petfinder.

I was nervous.

Would he like me? Would I know right away? What on earth was I getting myself into?
When I put my hand on that chain link fence and he put his paw to mine - it was sealed. I didn't even need to hold him, play with him or simply interact with him.

He was ours and more importantly we were his.


Happy 5 years together buddy - to many, many more.

    Oh my, how cute is Finn as a puppy?! He is still handsome now, but I'm swooning over that puppy pic!

    Made me tear up - exactly how I feel about both of my fur babes <3
    I think Finn is quite possibly one of the CUTEST puppies I've ever seen! Look at that face!
    Happy Gotcha Day Anniversary!! ;)

    Oh my goodness! he was such a cute puppy! I completely understand the special bond between a human and a dog. My golden retriever was 15 when he passed away a couple years ago. Not a day goes by when I don't think about him.
