I apologize for not keeping up with the blog but near the time of the last post, Pazzo was dismissed from the program due to food guarding. Pazzo was left with CCI for a week to try to help with his food guarding but to no avail. When we picked up Pazzo we were given the news so Pazzo became our pet.
The problem is we want to continue to raise puppies for CCI and we do not have the room for more than two dogs. We already have a release dog from CCI so keeping Pazzo would have been a choice to no longer raise puppies which we did not want to do.
Friends of ours who are also puppy raisers told us of friends in Texas who have been on the adoptive list with CCI for nearly three years and were still very interested in adopting a release dog from CCI. After several e-mails the decision was made to allow Pazzo to be adopted.
Pazzo left us in September and is now at home with his new pack near Dallas, TX. Pazzo has a new big sister Katie, a 13 year old golden retriever and little sister Gracie who is a 2 year old Maltese.
Pazzo was our first puppy that we really got to know not only as a CCI puppy but as our pet. The last four months Pazzo became a true member of the family. That made it hard to give him up. We came very close to keeping Pazz. He seems to be acclimating very well to his knew family and pack. His new owner actually flew here and spent 3 days here with us learning who Pazzo is and his personality before driving him back to his new home is Texas.
His new family has been very good about keeping us informed on how Pazzo is doing. While there have been a few bumps on the way, everything overall seems to be going very well. To help us get over Pazzo, we have received a new puppy from CCI and that is news for a new post.
