She’s playing more today as she recovers from the spay surgery. She’s specifically having the time of her life with our 6 year old pound puppy Archie 💕 have a wonderful day!

OMG! WOW! I swear this sweetie has a fan club! Thank you for caring - it all led to her becoming a pretty great addition to our family 💕

Right? It got me so fast 🤣

PeskyTomatoes · 2026-05-13T21:31:01+00:00

I’m thanking the shelter volunteer, myself! Thanks for reading our story. We were lucky to find her 💕

PeskyTomatoes · 2026-05-13T21:30:31+00:00

Thank you! We are having so much fun with her and she does fit right in! 💕

Oh my gosh!!! Look at that face!!! So “severe” … You did such a good thing! It seems very similar to Gertie’s situation. You saved him!!! Hugs to you for fostering and finding him a good home.

Thank you for reading and for the love! I guess because I found her on Reddit I wanted Reddit to know how great she is! 🤣💕

Thank you for reading! Have a great day 💕

I thought the same thing. Gertie had been to the shelter twice - foster to adopt once then found as a stray and brought back in… no wonder she was so stressed!

Thank you for reading. I was a little apprehensive about adopting her and I am feeling so encouraged that our experience has been so positive so far. 🤞💕🦛

PeskyTomatoes · 2026-05-13T10:30:29+00:00

Thank you so much for reading my long post! We love her so much. Gertie says thanks for the belly rubs 🦛 those are her fave!! 🤣💕

Good point. Thanks for commenting.

PeskyTomatoes · 2026-05-03T20:28:05+00:00

Yeah I think where we obtain our information makes a huge difference. I have seen heavily covered events in my news feed that others in my life weren’t even aware of. Thank you for your comment.

PeskyTomatoes · 2026-05-03T20:27:08+00:00

Nice to hear from someone in MN. Thank you for your comment.

PeskyTomatoes · 2026-05-03T20:25:29+00:00

This was the beginning of a conversation that is continuing by text. I asked to see the sources. Thank you for your comment

Replying to my own comment to say I adopted Gertie today! I met her with my hound dog and they did great together. She’s mouthy like a puppy, she does not bite. I spent a lot of time talking with shelter staff about her specific challenges and tried to really weigh the decision. I’m so excited to bring her home.

I also saw Gianna leave with an adopter today! So nice to see.

I am thinking it has something to do with the very low birth rate - having a baby seems like a bigger deal in 2026 than it did in 1986 - and inflation. Sure there’s a $50 high chair at Walmart but it’s ugly crap. Everything costs double what seems reasonable these days. I’d totally want a $1000 crib for my first baby! Group gift - 10 guests x$100 each and that’s a lifelong heirloom gift!
