Arrival Story: Morgan & I have been wanting to add a new brother or sister to the family. After reading the book , A RARE BREED OF LOVE (by Jana Kohl--the story of "Baby"), I knew I wanted a puppy-mill rescue.
On Saturday, June 14 (2008), Morgan & I went to Dog-Fest. Many rescue groups had booths there. We stopped at each one. LOTS of sweet dogs, but not exactly what we were looking for. Then we came to another rescue booth, and there he was! A small, shy Maltese. He had a different name, but I knew that he had to be a "Nico"! I immediately filled out the adoption forms, and was told that I would be contacted for a home inspection. That was just yesterday! I spoke with his foster-Mom last night, and she was willing to do the inspection and bring him to my home this morning!
So as of Sunday, June 15th, Nico is officially a member of our family, and Morgan has the little brother he's always wanted!

Bio: Nico was a retired breeder and was going to be put down because the puppy-mill owner said he was too old and of no further use! Thank God his rescue foster Mom took him ... and after 8 weeks, he found his way to his forever home with Morgan and me!

Forums Motto: Anyone for a snuggle?

I still can't believe that my beloved brother, Morgan, is in Heaven. I remember that day in June 2008 when I was hoping to be adopted at "Dogfest." I saw a woman carrying a Maltese that looked like me! They looked so happy together and I made a wish that I would be in a loving home someday. They stopped and looked at ME!! I was afraid to hope...but I heard the woman say that she wanted to see me! It was love at first sight for me and for them. Of course, you guessed it...."the woman" was my Mommy Linda and the Maltese she was carrying? Morgan, of course!! After filling out an adoption form and a home inspection the next day, I was delivered to my new forever home. I will never forget how welcoming Morgan was to me. He even brought his favorite toy, "snowman" to me! Two months later Holly was adopted and joined our happy family. Eventually our family included our new Daddy Wil and Kodie, a Shetland Sheepdog.
In June 2010 we moved from Cincinnati, Ohio to New Mexico and us "Sweetiepies" and Kodie had so much fun on this trip! I think we stopped at every roadside park from Ohio to New Mexico! And the motels---we loved them!!
Well, so many happy memories and now it is just me, Holly and Kodie. Mommy & Daddy rescued/saved a "rez" dog, Jack in October 2010 but found a loving, forever home for him where he is an "only dog" and has lots of room to run!
We love you, Morgan, and although we miss you terribly, we know that you are in Heaven. One day we will all be re-united---I know that you will come running to welcome us there!

Let me set the record straight for those of you who read Morgan's diary entry! I admit that I was exactly thrilled when Mommy announced, "Guess what? Jack is staying here!" (in that annoying chirping voice of hers). But I love Jack now!! He is a big dog (translation: he is not a Maltese) but oh, my, he had such a sad story of life as a stray on the rez that I was crying!!! Who could not love him?!
Unbelieveable, but he even said that he will listen to my all-time favorites, Dean Martin and Frankie Valli. Are Border Collies from Italy??
So now we are five....I saw a show once on t.v., "Eight Is Enough." I only hope that Mommy never sees that show. I say that FIVE is enough!!!

WOW!! I was so shocked to see that I had been selected as "Diary of the Day"!!! THANK YOU!! I love the comments that I have received....but am not sure how to answer the comments (duh) so I will answer here!
First of all, thanks for the congrats!! And the question of how did we select this reservation? My Daddy is Navajo!! FBI--
"Full-Blooded Indian." (a little rez humor) Yep, it's a permanent move.
If you are not a pup-pal of mine, please send a request!! We are always looking forward to new requests!!
Love,
Nico
