I have a sad confession to make…back in July, Tulip went to live with another family :(. At first, it was a temporary trial arrangement but they fell in love with Tulip and we fell in love with not having a seizing, barking, child-hating animal in our home. Her new family is just a mom and dad (no small kiddos)…they’ve already taken her on vacation at least 3 times (they text me and tell me when she’s having fun), she goes e-v-e-r-y-w-h-e-r-e with them…seriously, they take her with them all the time and she’s therefore blissfully happy (and would HATE coming home). It was probably the toughest decision Andrew and I have made as a married couple. It was really, really hard but totally a blessing from the Lord.
That being said…since we are now a dog-free establishment, Kensington has really become obsessed with my brother’s two dogs, Lola and Ellie (a boxer and a lab). She talks about them all the time and is always wanting to go hang out with Uncle Seanie and his dogs. Her favorite part of being a co-dog owner with her uncle…walking them…or as you can see…her being walked by them. Yesterday, she went to the park with them and Seanie let her walk Lola…
I personally think Kensington having dogs that live with, are cared for by, and paid for by my brother is the best scenario for our little family.
