Brady's success story
Here are actual e-mails from Brady's new owner

He seems so happy and everyday I can see him becoming more open and comfortable. I
can't thank you enough.

He is really starting to settle in. Brady and my husband, Jamie have made friends, he has
also made friends with one of the cats, Tinkerbell. She loves him, she rubs on him and he
kisses her, it's cute. He loves his yard and runs around it likes crazy. He went on his first
walking outing to visit my daughters best friends (Lexy) family yesterday. Not his first
walk, just first to meet other people. He was great, he made friends with Lexy very
quickly. He has learned to shake hands already, he is truly a joy, we Love him so much.
Brady had his first bath Saturday! He was sooo good. Came in the bathroom, jumped right in
the tub and just stood there. He didn't try to jump out or make a fuss. Now every time you
go in the bathroom he runs in and jumps in the tub. He is just to funny. I will be taking more
pics and I will send them. Stay positive and keep your head up, your fosters need you :-)

Brady is doing wonderfully. He is such a joy. He and my husband are finally friends, he
knows what time he will get home from work and anxiously waits to hear the jeep pull into
the driveway, then proceeds to go crazy - lol. He has made friends with all the cats now! He
keeps me company outside when I am gardening. And he loves to play fetch with his toys. My
daughter bought him a shirt to wear outside so when he rolls in the leaves, which he loves to
do, he doesn't get his beautiful black coat all tangled. He has no problem wearing it. Now
when he wants to go out and play he waits for you to put it on him. We are so blessed just to
have Brady as part of our family. Thank You!
I will keep you and the farm and all the animals there in my prayers. You have a heart of
gold, God Bless you for all you do.

I wanted to share with you that Friday evening Brady went on a his first outing to Pet Smart
to get a new toy. He was so good. He was very excited and wanted to explore the whole
store. He didn't get afraid or startled by anyone. He even accepted a treat from the
cashier and let her pet him.
His new toy is a round green fish with big purple lips and of course it squeaks. We call it his
ugly fish. It has become his new favorite toy, he carries it everywhere.

How was your holidays? Hope all is well with you, yours and the farm.
Just wanted to drop you a quick email. Brady is doing great! We have had so many mile
stones in the past few months.
Brady went for his first grooming on Christmas Eve morning. We have been going to
Petsmart, down the street and he meet Heidi one of the groomers, it took a few visits but
he made friends and became very comfortable with her, so we had an appointment. He was
great for her. He was so beautiful for the holidays (he's beautiful all the time, but it was
extra special). Britt bought him a Santa scarf with fur trim and bells, he wore it for over a
week (will send pictures soon). Christmas eve night, he opened one of his present. He went
under the tree and got it all by himself, then he feel asleep sitting up on my lap - too cute.
Christmas morning he was all excited. He loves opening packages even if they are not his -
lol.
This past Sunday when we got all the snow, Brady was crazy, he loved it. He jumped off the
deck and disappeared in the snow. Then all of a sudden you just saw a spot of black as he
would jump up out of it then disappear again. He must have had me outside 20 times that
afternoon/evening. He just loves the snow! He knows all his toys by name now and he
certainly has quite a collection. He's made friends with my daughters boyfriend and another
couple of our friends so he doesn't bark at them anymore when they come to the house.
He is just so special to me. I Love him so much! Everyone says he is my baby boy. Every night
we cuddle on the couch together for about 1/2 hour before I go to bed.
I can't thank you enough for bringing us together. For taking him in, working with him and
giving me the chance to meet and be chosen by him. We have a great life together and I
pray it will continue for many years. Thank You!
P.S. Brady and I would like to stop up and see you sometime. I have some blankets and stuff
thats just too expensive to mail. Are you ever available for a short visit on the week ends?
