HAPPY ENDINGS: BABBS

[CLICK TO RETURN HAPPY ENDINGS]

Dear BRLA,

When I first contacted BRLA I had an idea of the boxer I wanted. A
floppy ear 1-3 year old fawn male. I never dreamed I would leave with a
floppy ear 8 1/2 year old brindle female.

Upon arriving at BRLA, Toni Faragalli asked me if I would consider a
"loving senior"? I didn't want to appear difficult so I said "OK". In my
mind I was thinking, "let's get this over with so I can see what I came
here to see".

The second "loving senior" I met was Babbs. Toni came out leading a
gray faced brindle female. I called Babbs to me and she eagerly ran up
to me and buried her head in my chest and wiggled like crazy. I said to
myself, "you sure audition well". I took her for a walk. She behaved so
beautifully I had to take her home.

When I got her home she quickly learned what was OK and not OK. I
especially enjoy her responsiveness when I call her and/or give her
directions. She is such a joy when it comes to meeting people. She
greets them like long last friends. My friends are even volunteering to
care for her when I travel. They encourage me to bring her to their homes.

Toni, I want to thank you so much for encouraging me to consider a
"loving senior". I strongly recommend to any potential adopter to give an
older boxer a chance to win their heart.

Babbs and I are off to the Palm Desert Street Fair. Thanks again
for bringing Babbs into my life.

Yours Respectfully,

Alberto Lopez
