Daisy

While I was away in Vegas for a weekend my gf randomly decided to foster a dog. She saved an 18 month old beagle mix, named Daisy, from being put to sleep. My gf agreed to foster Daisy until the shelter found a permanent home for her. Daisy turned out to be such a cute and well behaved dog that we instantly became attached to her. The shelter was able to find someone to adopt Daisy rather quickly so we only fostered her for 10 days. As it turns out, my gf was away that weekend when the shelter came to transfer Daisy to her new country home in Pennsylvania, so when she returned home Daisy was already gone. Now every time we pass by a cute dog or see a picture of a puppy online, my gf will cry out "You gave Daisy away!! How could you??" As I've discovered over the years, the best response is to just hug her and whisper "I know, I know, it's okay."
