Part 4: The Reunion
 |
| A happy boy! |
Happy Monday! Tonight we find out what happened with GROVER! If you would like to read parts 1-4 together click here. For the past 2 months we have learned about the rescue of this tiny pup and his journey from his foster family in Oregon to his adoptive family in Canada. Grover and his forever family just celebrated Grover's first birthday on July 5th and he is so happy in his pack.
In part 2, Richard and Merissa stated one of the challenges of fostering is saying goodbye to the dogs are they are adopted. It is a very common question of those who foster. As Merissa and Richard reported, they know that they have to say goodbye in order to make room for another dog in need. One of the most rewarding aspects of "letting go" is being able to get updates from the permanent family.
Richard and Tom had been planning to surprise Merissa for some time; the half-way point was at the Wapato dog park right here in my home town of Tacoma, WA. The best part is, that they were able to keep it a secret from Merissa and it was a complete surprise! See the reunion in the video below.
Grover plans on making a guest appearance at the Newberg Old Fashioned Festival in Newberg, Oregon on Saturday, July 29th for the grand parade and he is sure hoping you can make it.
Thanks for reading about Grover and his journey from his foster family to his adoptive family and check back often for future updates on this very special boy.
