| Jeff, Thurby was adopted by a wonderful older couple from Ohio who saw him posted on Rescue Me. Since then, I have received two other inquiries regarding Thurby. As heart breaking as it is in having to give a beloved pet of six (6) year up (in my case my 3 year old granddaughter who came to live with me was highly allergic), thank goodness there was some place I could turn to and try to find him a good home on my own. When I realized I was going to have to give him up, the thought of taking him to a animal shelter devastated me. I tried Papillon Rescue and it took me directly to Rescue Me. Within two days I had this older couple who were begging me not to give him to anyone else, they wanted him that badly. I still miss Thurby every day but at least I know he's in a loving environment with people who really wanted him and went out of their way to get him. Giving Thurby up was probably one of the hardest things I ever one but while he was confused he wasn't traumatized. The last picture I have in my mind of Thurby was him being held, loved on and kissed by a very sweet lady who thought he was the most beautiful dog she had ever seen. Feel free to post my comments. When my daughter and granddaughter are able to get on their feet and into a home of their own and I no longer have to worry about allergic reactions, I'll be back to Rescue Me for happier reasons - looking for a new best friend.
