Rex

Rex had his meet and greet with Lorraine and Woody on Monday, August 9th at 1 pm. I met them outside with Rex and introductions were made. Their dog Baylee was very friendly and tolerant of Rex sniffing her from head to toe!! After greeting Baylee his tail began to wag. He went to Lorraine and let her pet him on the back. After we were all comfortable with each other we came in to chat for a little while. We all took seats in my living room. I usually sit on the floor in front of the coffee table to assist in paperwork and allow the dog to sit with me while we work if necessary. Rex stayed close to me but did interact with Lorraine. We placed Rex on the loveseat next to Lorraine and she began petting him. After a few minutes I asked if ‘this was the one?’ She said yes I believe so. We pulled out the paperwork and began going through the adoption agreement. She had a pen in one hand and was petting Rex’s head. Res was leaning heavily towards her with his ‘Rexy lean!’ She could barely sign all the papers because he kept nudging her had for “more pets please!” while Baylee sniffed every inch of my living room! Rex was a little shy but given what he has been through it is understandable. He is such a sweet and quiet little man, so loving and polite. As we gathered up his bed, blanket and goodie bag I felt that familiar tug at my heart. Rex fell right in with my pack. There was never any ‘arguing’ over food, treats or people. There was only acceptance and love from all involved. I knew it was going to be hard to let him go but I know he needs a home where he can be the king (and Baylee can be the queen.) The Trice’s are wonderful people and I know Rex will settle in once he understands this is his new home. He did tug at the leash and follow Lorraine to the truck as she put away his things before placing him in the car to ride to his furever home. Congratulations Rex!!!
