16th December 2010
by Kathy Mon Dec 16 2013, 10:59
It's 3 years ago today that me and hubby first met Rocky at Wood Green rescue centre. We were doing some Christmas shopping and said lets just pop up to Wood Green just to have a look around (we had been visiting every few months anyway).
Rocky looked through the wire fencing at us, we looked at him, I looked and hubby and that was it really, love at first sight. We then enquired at the office about him, took him around the centre for a little walk then put a reserve on him. We had to get a letter from our housing association first, just to say they had given us permisson to re home a dog.
We then had a home check from Jenny from Wood Green, all OK there, then a few days later we bought him home on 22nd December. Life will never be the same again, I said this to my hubby the day we first Rocky how right was I, in a lovely way
