[nagdu] meating the puppy raisers

[Melissa Green]

GDF has a celebration sunday.  That is when you meet your puppy raisers.
I was able to talk with my dog's puppy raisers on the phone because they 
weren't able to make it.
they shared information with me about my dog and were very gracious.
I still keep in contact with them.
I remember one things that was said too me.  It was you're her mama now.

I guess many puppy raisers are very attached and have tried to get the dog 
back.  This happened to a friend of mine.  They pulled out all of the stops 
trying to get the dog back.
Have a blessed day.
Warmly,
Melissa and PJ
It's so hard to forget pain, but it's even harder to remember sweetness. We 
have no scar to show for happiness.
