I haven't blogged in a while, I kinda suck at this... I don't have enough to say I guess, or nothing that exciting happens to me? I dunno..
But here we go, this is a sad week in our home, we have made the decision to give our dog away. Jaret and I bought Charlie when he was 8 weeks old, he is a pure bred Golden Retriever. He was the cutest little puppy ever, he grew and grew and grew and he is still a very good looking Golden! Charlie was my baby, I gave him so much love and attention, it was kind of pathetic at times.
Then we had Sawyer 18 months ago and our lives changed, we got busy and unfortunately we were not able to give Charlie the same attention as he was previously receiving. He has now been with us for 5 1/2 years and become part of our family. So even talking about the topic was/ is very hard, but we have been discussing it for a while and have decided it is in Charlie's best interest to find a more suitable home for him.
We had a couple come and look at him yesterday and they wanted him right away :( They had good reasons, and prolonging it would probably only create more tears. So last night Charlie made his way to his new home, tear.
We feel good about the home he is at, they have 3 kids that are 4 and older, which is a nice change from the torture Sawyer was giving him.... They have a big yard and have been asking for a dog for a while, research was done and agreed that Golden's are great family dogs, I couldn't agree more!
We have received updates that Charlie is fitting in like he has lived there all his life, they have gone for big walks and the kids played all day outside with him. I know he is getting the attention there that he deserves. He is an amazing dog, I couldn't have asked for a better dog.
So although he has left our home, he will never leave our hearts. We love you Charlie.

Aaawww Poor Charlie :( I don't know how you did it. We have been taking care of Murphy's sister golden for 3 months while my MIL is in Florida...she hides out upstairs until the kids are gone for the day. It doesn't phase Murph though - he's used to the craziness! :)
