Addie was adopted last week. A wonderful family from Massachusetts chose her. They are really a perfect fit for her: a couple and their two teenage daughter. They picked her up Saturday morning. I was apprehensive. Addie is such a special girl. She’s a wonderful dog once she likes you. The thing is to get her to like you, you must leave her completely alone. Don’t touch her, don’t talk to her, don’t look at her. She needs time to relax before you can do any of those things. I explained this to Addie’s new family and they all seemed on board and very enthusiastic about doing whatever Addie needed to become comfortable. So that’s the good news.

The bad news is that shortly after they got her home, she slipped under their fence and ran into the woods. The family covered their town in missing dog posters and spoke to everyone they could find. Some people spotted her a few hours after she escaped but nothing since. I have a lot of hope that they’ll find her. Even though she is scared of humans, she still has a desire to be near them. I think that instinct will drive her to someone. Also, she is quite the copy-cat (or copy-dog, if you prefer) to other dogs. If she meets up with a dog in a yard somewhere. I don’t think she’ll go far from that spot. Almost Home Rescue has provided her family with a Have-A-Heart trap to be set up once she’s spotted again.

If you are in or near Bridgewater, MA and you see a little black dog with no collar please call the numbers list on the flyer. It getting cold up her in New England. I hope she is found very soon.

One of our recent fosters, Addie, just ran away from her new forever home in Bridgewater, MA. Attached is a photo of Addie and the text from the poster. If you live in or near Bridgewater and see Addie, please call the number–DON’T try to chase her as she is very timid and will run away.
