We can't believe it will be one year tomorrow that we have had our big, beautiful, goofy oaf of a boy Booyah. Anyone who has met Booyah knows how sweet and special he is! He is a mommy's boy and we both love him very much! I can remember talking with Debbie about how special of a boy Booyah was and how we could foster him to see how it would work. She of course told me Booyah's story. For those of you who don't know, Booyah waited at Joan's kennel for about 7 months. No one could look past his birth defect, (one eye is sunken in a little and is a little smaller than the other, he is blind in this eye, but you can barely notice it) and see what a great dog he is. Joan and all the other volunteers at GPA-GO kennel really loved Booyah, took good care of him and he remains in their hearts. And, we are in contact with Joann and send them pictures of Booyah.
I can remember going over to Trina and Jason's to pick him up. We were going to foster him with the option to adopt and were originally not going to take him home with us that day. Once we met him, we just could not leave without him!! He really helped Maggie with her separation anxiety and she really helped Booyah learn the ropes. Booyah is very much a follower. It took him months to really get the concept of toys. It took him weeks to get the concept of going up and down stairs. Because of Booyah, I now understand how special, sweet and dumb (and I mean that in the nicest way) the boys really are!! We will always have a male greyhound as part of our family!
Special thanks and gratitude to all the people who helped bring Booyah into our lives!!! We can't express how grateful we are to be lucky enough to have Booyah as part of our family.
So here's to you Booyah! Happy gotcha day!!!!!!!!! We love you very much!!! =)
