Summer
As a dog lover I’ve been asked during the course of adopting a dog “why a Doberman?” Anyone who has owned one knows that they are loving, devoted and sensitive.
In May of 2017 we adopted a 5-year-old Doberman named Summer through the Doberman Rescue Alliance of Wisconsin (DRAWI). She is the fifth Doberman I have owned but is the first one that has been older at the time she came to live with us. She has totally integrated into our home and gets along well with my little dog who was 9 years old at the time.
I had been searching for that special dog for some time to no avail. I finally told my grandchildren that if they could find one on line for me there would be a finder’s fee resulting from a successful adoption. About a year after the offer was made one of my granddaughters called me at 10:30 one Sunday night to tell me there was a Doberman available on the DRW website. We applied, were ultimately approved and Summer came to her forever home. I simply adore her and keep loving her more every day. (Needless to say, my granddaughter was happy with her finder’s fee as well.)
The day after we brought her home my sister, also a dog lover, came to help celebrate Summer’s arrival and brought a beautiful bouquet of red roses and toys for both of my dogs.
My husband and I want to thank our two contact people, Mary and Jill, for helping to make this such a positive experience for us and for the work they do to help find these special dogs find their forever homes.
Gratefully,
Wanda
