[Dailydrool] Celebration

[GalinkinSK at aol.com]

As I was turning my calendar at work today late in the afternoon I realized 
 that today, October 27th is Abraham's Gotcha Day...I cannot believe that 
he  entered our hearts two years ago already.  I will never forget that  day 
when his wonderful foster parents, Rich and Karen brought him to us...I had  
posted a picture of him on my front storm door at his level  which said "  
Welcome Abraham".  It was a bittersweet day as Karen and Rich became very  
very attached to him...Karen was crying most of the day not wanting to give 
him  up . Abe has taught us many things and has eaten many things..He is the  
quintessential counter cruiser and as I call him...."A big piggy".  Abe is  
a very  very large  smooshy basset, he measures 57" from the tip of  his 
nose to the tip of his tail..I have been trying to convince them at the  
waddle to include Longest Basset as one of the contests as I know he would win  
paws down.  He is also a very kind boy welcoming all creatures in our home  
for short or long visits.  I tend to care for many friend's dogs when  needed 
and anyone who comes for a visit that wants to bring their dogs are  
welcome.    His most recent kindness was shown to a feral kitten  who showed up at 
our front door.  Mary Todd Ga-linkin (not feral anymore)  and Abe play 
every night . It's a riot to watch this huge boy chase her  through the house 
getting stuck under the bed...but once she comes out he gives  her big sloppy 
kisses and they sleep together all snuggled up.  My  Abrahammy, I love him 
so.  Thank you Suzanne from Mid-Atlantic Basset Hound  Rescue , thank you 
Karen and Rich for a perfect match and thank you Abraham for  being such a 
mama's boy....
 
Shelley, etc.
