Big Momma Returns!

Chloe first came to LDCRF from a shelter in West Virgina as Big Momma Hattie with her three puppies Mae, Sherry, and Lester. We met her near Halloween during a Saturday adoption event. She was beautiful and an absolute sweetheart. She gave her puppies gentle kisses and proudly showed them off to every stranger she met while wagging her tail. She was constantly grinning and just exuded happiness.


Her puppies were all dressed up in Halloween costumes. I grabbed the boy puppy, Lester, who was appropriately dressed as an adorable lobster, and put him into my boyfriend's arms. "Hold this one!" I said cheerfully. By the end of the event, Will was in love with that puppy. It broke his heart to put that pitty boy back on the van to the ranch so less than twenty minutes later, we emailed that we wanted to make Lester part of our family. We adopted him the next day and a year later Apollo is one of our three babies. He is the definition of goofy and lovable.


Chloe went into foster care and was adopted quickly, but now the family's situation has changed and Chloe is looking for a new home. I cannot wait to see her again and reintroduce her to her baby boy all grown up! It should be a fun family reunion because they are both happy wiggle butts!
