Mandi

We welcomed Mandi into our home in February. It was love at first sight. We had lost both of our previous pets ( Macy- Mar. 2014 and Molly- Sept. 2014) last year due to both illness and age. It was very hard on both my husband and I and thought that we could never have another dog again that we would love as much as them. I get very lonesome for the welcome that you receive if you have been gone 10 minutes or 3 hours and started looking at getting another dog. I really did not want a puppy as my husband and I have retired, so started looking at the different sites for a rescue pet. There in checking your web site in early Feb. I saw this picture of Mandi that melted my heart. I had a hard time getting onto your site and it happened that there was a Diamond in the Ruff Pet Rescue group meeting at Moorhead Center Mall that Saturday which the web site did say that Mandi would not be attending, upon talking to several people they helped me to get on the site, upon getting home I filled out the pre adoption papers on her. Things went from there references were called, and finally the evening for meeting her. Upon her entering our home we all fell in love with her, and we filled out the remaining paperwork and she was with us. She was good from the start, minus having some accidents, we had a mutual love between us. My Grandaughter was and is still living with us, being a recent college grad from UND, she is a registered nurse here at Sanford, with her parents living in Minneapolis it was a big welcome to our family for as long as she wants to stay. Along with her she has a dog named Sparrow who has been an asset to Mandi as a playmate. They have gotten along very good, never any issues between them. They play tug of war and each have a bone to chew on that they often lay side by side. So our adoption of Mandi has been a very positive one, and we thank "Diamond in The Ruff Pet Rescue" for helping be our forever home to her. Thanks again, Maxine and Bruce Larkin
