Four years ago today, Karen Pee and Monika brought a beautiful wheaten cairn girl to me to foster. She was my first CP foster. Recently released from a puppy mill, where she'd spent 4 years outside in a cage, she flattened herself on the ground when they took her out of her crate in the car (on a leash, of course). I bent down and she turned her little face up to me, the sweet, scared look saying, "can I trust you? Will you be nice to me? Will you love me?" I picked her up and said, "why you are a little cairn princess!" And so she was, and is.
I brought her in, and my little cairn boy Tiger, a former petshop boy, started to play for the first time. "Mama, she is just my size!" My former mill mama found a little cairn brother to run and play with, and together these 2 puppymill kids found a friend who was just like them. I had to adopt her, how could I not??
So, she became my forever Princess, and I became a foster flunky. I've never been happier. Thank you Col. Potter for bringing my beloved girl to me, and allowing me to be her forever mama. Happy Gotcha Day, Princess!
