Heidi Gives Thanks for Her Special Day

Heidi is a very special puppy mill survivor who nows lives an idyllic life in CA. Her Foster Mom Karen O from Yuma, AZ sent this greeting and video:

Happy Gotcha Day, sweet Heidi!! Here is Heidi's video, what a courageous little one she is. Lois, thank you for loving this special baby, and giving her such a wonderful forever home. You too, Jack!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_53Nnbi3Z_w
Hugs, Karen O, Yuma, AZ

Then Heidi's Furever Mom fills in:
Ah, Karen - thank YOU so much for everything you did to help Heidi be able to trust and love. I just did get to watch this lovely video again, and am so very grateful to you for sharing your fabulous pictures of her. I think this will be the best gotcha day ever for Heidi. First, Fred and Zoya came to stay for a few days while Denise helps Carol search for Franz (no news yet). Denise had been gone for just a while when Antee Steffi and Oncle Tony arrived with lots and lots of wonderful smellin' food. Oncle Tony is the world's biggest softie, and he was in charge of doling out the package of Zukes that Denise brought as a hostess gift. The bag is significantly lighter, and Fred has found his newest best friend. Zoya, poor baby, preferred to 'nap' in her crate - until she found her voice (think Talullah Bankhead/Bette Davis/Lauren Bacall/50 year smoker), and commented on what she heard. So Heidi got to dress up today (first wonderful thing), then got doggie company that is exceedingly polite and nice, and then her favorite family folks came over and she got treats all day, pets and pets and pets, and it was a lovely lovely day. Thank you so much Karen, Sydney and all of CRM - especially Danielle who spends so very much time on all of us.
Hugs,Lois in CA
