Thank you to Augie’s parents, Emile and Jennifer, for sharing their beautiful love story with Augie:
We love senior dogs! We discovered Augie on Muttville.org in early February. We knew we just had to meet him. We turned in our application and headed out to a meet and greet in SF. Upon arrival, we discovered that Augie was not going to be there because a family was considering him for adoption. We spent some time with lots of other adorable senior dogs. After much thought, we decided to keep looking. Later in the weekend, we received an email stating that Augie was still available. We quickly set up an appointment to meet him and his foster mom.
On Sunday, February 19, 2012 we had the pleasure of meeting Augie in a local park. He was adorable, friendly, and we immediately knew we wanted to bring him home.
Augie has brought so much love and joy to our home. We love his toothless smile (thanks Muttville for helping with his teeth before adoption), ability to nap anytime, and his love for going to work with Emile in our home office. Augie loves his daily walks and going to the drive-in movies (he is great at napping, remember?). He is also great at cheering for our SF Giants, especially when Timmy or Romo is up. We enjoy taking Augie with us on all of our adventures. He enjoyed his first house boat trip this summer, many car rides to grandma’s house, and especially loves walking around our neighborhood. Augie is very patient when meeting new people, even young children who see him in the park. He doesn’t bark much, unless he hears something unusual at our home and wants to protect us.
We are so thankful for Sherri and her entire Muttville team. Thanks for giving Augie a second chance and we are honored to be his forever home.
Emile and Jennifer
