<<<<<<<<<<UPDATE>>>>>>>>>>

This weekend is Maddie’s Pet Adoption Days! Archie was adopted on one of Maddie’s Adoption Days so I thought this would be a great time to finish Archie’s story.

Archie spent a short time in our home. He was a really good boy! He was potty trained, didn’t bark much and just wanted to be loved. Just a couple of weeks after we started fostering Archie my husband and I were going out of town and we asked my daughter to puppy sit for the weekend.

During this time my daughter felt like Archie belonged in her family. So Archie got an amazing Furever home!

Please find an adoption event this weekend and find your new family member!

<<<<<<<<<<ORIGINAL POST>>>>>>>>>>>

Hi welcome back to Michelle On Your Side. A personal passion of mine since as long as I can remember is animals. I even volunteered at the Humane Society of Missouri when I was 14. Today I was able get my first foster dog! So I am going to turn the platform over to him. Archie, our new foster puppy will be my guest blogger. He is going to write A Day in the Life of Archie as a series until we find him a FURREVER home. I hope you enjoy!

The Life of Archie

Hi! I’m Archie. I have had a tough life. I’m not trying to get sympathy but the Life of Archie so far has not been great. My first parent got a divorce and neither one could keep me. I was rescued by an amazing lady, Annette from a Pawsitive Difference and she found me a new home. My new home was nice until my elderly mom said she was unable to take care of a young puppy like me. So back to the boarder (cage) I went.

Today was a great day! Annette came to pick me up and told me she has a home for me to go stay until I find my real parents, the ones I will be with furrever. I am so grateful and excited to get out of the boarder and into a home. But a little nervous, what if they don’t like me. I’m a good boy but I need some love and attention.

Annette drove me to my new home and she was met by a lady (Mama Michelle)with 3 other dogs! Oh no! What if THEY don’t like me? All I want is a warm bed and some love once in a while. As we were all walking their little dog kept yelling at me. I wanted to tell him I’m not there to take his parents, but I just ignored him and kept walking with Annette.

Then something weird happened!

All of the sudden I noticed that Annette wasn’t with us anymore. It was just me and Mama Michelle and Papa Christoff and Lilly, Carly and Bruno. How did that happen? How did I suddenly become a part of their pack? And we walked through the park and to their house!

So, you won’t even believe what they have in their house! First of all, they have a door that I can go in and out whenever I want. I think this is the coolest thing I have ever seen! I did not understand it at first so Papa Christoff had to explain it to me, but once I figured it out, oh my gosh! It is amazing!

The In and out door

After checking out the in and out door, Papa Christoff said “Who wants a treat?” I may not know many words yet, but I know the word treat! So anyway, he just handed out treats like nothing. Lilly and Carly had to “sit” for theirs, but I don’t know that word “sit” yet. And when Papa Christoff raised his hand to show me “sit” I was afraid. Mama Michelle thinks I was hit in one of my homes. I can’t tell her whether or not I was but they didn’t make me sit.

Next, they have a whole box of toys just for puppies! I thought since it was my first day I should check out as many toys as possible. I also showed Mama Michelle that I can play fetch, although she keeps saying release and I would rather play tug of war with her. But once she gets the toy she throws it and I bring it back to her so she can throw it again.

I don’t think Lilly, Carly and Bruno like me much yet, but I know I am a nice guy, I’ll win them over!

I heard Mama and Papa say we are going to go out for dinner. Will they really take me with them? I hope so.

I like this place.

Archie
