A New Addition to Our Space Coast Family

I have been promising my boy a dog for quite some time.

I had certain requirement's...small, under 2 years old, no shedding and a rescue dog (I do not believe we should be buying dogs from puppy mills with millions of good dogs needing homes and being put to sleep).

...then Nino came along. Nino is an older (around 7 years) dog. He is medium sized (not small at all) and he sheds all the time. He is a rescue dog and because of his age he was very hard for the foster Mom to find him a home.

Since Nino was absolutely nothing like what we were looking for I needed to introduce him to my 13 year old. I let my boy know that because of his age he would be hard to find him a forever home.

He took Nino for a walk and asked "Can we adopt him?"

So Nino has been living with us since just before Christmas. He seems to like his new home and I think he figures this will be a pretty good place to crash for a while :)

Hi Jeffrey -- you're a good Dad -- to your son and to Nino now.    I had to laugh to myself when you described your ideal pet as I could tell that things were going to turn out much differently.  

Congratulations on your latest addition.

Nino is such a sweet looking boy.  I bet you and your son have lots of special moments with him and it has to feel good that you truly did rescue him!

Jeffrey, I happened upon this post while looking in "local info" in Florida and I have tears in my eyes...look at that expression! I am SO VERY HAPPY that Nino and your boy bonded! This just makes my day...I am SUCH an animal lover...have rescued many a critter in my time (Including a packrat in our crawlspace just before Christmas and live trapped it and took it to the woods and let it go safe and sound!)

Bless you all and a long LONG life to Nino!!

When my two were little, we also got rescue dogs. Puppie mills are the worst!

Jeffrey DiMuria 321.223.6253 www.SpaceCoastHomesNow.com thinking back to my childhood, I still remember the pets (and their names) with fond memories.

Jeffrey DiMuria 321.223.6253 www.SpaceCoastHomesNow.com Nino looks like an awesome dog!  I agree- save a pet from destruction rather than buy from a breeder or puppy-mill!

That's a great happy ending for Nino! Sometimes you find what you least expect and it's just what you really need.

I am so proud of you for having a rescue dog as the new addition to your family. I have 3 rescue dogs--one passed away last year-- and a pure-bred doberman--which I think you are aware of as you see him most of the time on my facebook. And make it a permanent home for him. Not a temp crash. :)..

Jeff, how is Nino doing, fitting in perfectly with your family?    Was this a great idea?

:) here comes Nino who does not fit any of wanted criteria but fits perfectly:)

Wishing you all be happy.

 

Does it remind you our job? Buyers who wants one thing and end up with something very different?
