Gabe and I hung out at TLAC this weekend, hoping to meet someone who would want to adopt him. We were just about to leave yesterday, when a woman saw him playing so well with toys, that she stopped us to meet him. She came over today with her husband and is just crazy about him. They have officially adopted him, but haven't taken him home yet. That's going to be really hard for me. I stopped fostering a few years ago because it became too hard.
I know that this couple will be good for him, though. She doesn't work right now and is looking forward to continuing with his training. She is also a jogger, which he needs.
They are scheduled for lots more training with Lee Mannix next week, so I'm pretty sure that the timing will work out perfectly. The day of tutoring he had with them last week, by the way, did wonders for him. He no longer reacts much in the car. He cries and growls a little when he sees another dog, but the insane barking is gone. He's still pretty bad out on walks, though. I told the adopters all about him and that it will probably be a long time before he will be able to jog with her at Town Lake, but they seemed up for the challenge.
So I'm a little sad, but I'm more relieved that he has a home now, since I leave in under two weeks.

Gabe took that love that you gave him so generously with him. He has it in his heart, you will always be a part of him. You are doing a good job for these guys.
