Because of our new situation, Marley could no longer be apart of our family :(. We really had no other choice and sometimes you do what you gotta do to make things work. I posted an ad on craigslist in Phx and in Flagstaff and worked really hard on finding her the perfect family. I had about 5 people contact me in Phx and 2 in Flag. I'm so glad I posted in Flagstaff because the new family we found for her couldn't have been a better fit. She is not yet house trained on chewing up kids toys and it's perfect since they have college age kids. They also have a 1 1/2 year old Boxer mix named Ozzie. The family is extremely active and spend the majority of their time being outdoors doing things like hiking/camping/canoeing and they take their dogs with them. We met up with them on Wed. Tina had some of her friends/family over to meet her for the first time. They had a welcome home party for her today (Sunday). She gets to share a room/bed with Ozzie now that her son has moved out. She honestly couldn't have had a better deal. Now she gets to live in cooler weather, have a nice bed to sleep on and she gets to get royally spoiled with her new lifestyle. Tina called me today to say she definitely misses us, but they are very happy to have her. She went on her first big hike yesterday with them and another one today. In a few months once she gets settled, we are going to go over for a visit. I'm glad she's agreed to keep in touch and will send pictures and we will get to visit on occasion. She really has a much better deal with them and it makes my heart feel good that we were able to find her the best situation for her.
