This is a wonderful story beautifully told. My wife shares your amazing and charming addiction to dog adoption sites, and I have to entertain her fondness as I’m reading the newspaper with morning coffee. You are not alone, Jan, by any means. My profile picture includes a moment with Maggie, whom we both adored and then mourned over her passing for a year. Cristina’s spirit, my center of gravity, suffered through a dogless year until we found Brix, a border collie mix, at a shelter far from home. We sat in the “adoption room” to meet Brix, who upon entering, immediately put his head between Cristina’s knees. Four seconds. Adoption announced with her smile. Thank you for this wonderful story, Jan.

That's SO heartwarming -- and I'm so happy that you and Brix found each other!

I loooooved reading this ❤️❤️❤️

I'm a hopeless pooch-scroller and I can't even have another dog! Not where I live.

I am certain that when you very least expect it, the dog you NEED at those point in your life will present itself. The universe knows.
