My former husband and I adopted Ruger shortly after the passing of my beloved Moab. I knew we had the space in our hearts for another dog, even though it had only been a few weeks. Shadow was getting lonely, and I couldn't stand for her to be alone! She missed Moab badly, too. I found Ruger through a local rescue on the internet, and knew he was meant for us.
Sadly, a year or so after we adopted Ruger, my marriage ended and Ruger needed to stay with his daddy. They had formed a special bond and even though I wanted him to come with me and my girl Shadow, it wouldn't have been fair to either of them. He remains in a good home with a very responsible owner that tends to the special needs of Ruger. I still think of him as part of my family (I did find and rescue him, afterall). I am glad that we got to share time together, even if it was only for a little while.
Wherever you are now, Ruger, know that you are missed and loved and you will always have a home with us in the event your daddy cannot continue to take care of you.
