March is always a time to celebrate
here at Hyacinths for the Soul.
Sadie Mercedes came to live with us.
When we adopted her on March 10, 2012,
our life was immediately filled with a new joy.
Here we are getting to know each other that first week.
She arrived a shy little girl,
having been left at the Austin Humane Society
by previous owners who for some reason
could no longer care for her, her brother, and her parents.
Luckily for us, Wee Rescue
rescued her from the Austin Humane Society
and fostered her until we showed up at a
Saturday Wee Rescue Meet and Greet.
It was love at first sight!
Sadie loves her toys and brings them
to us when she wants to play.
She likes us to throw them for her to retrieve.
Then she brings them back and wants to play tug of war.
A girl after my heart, her favorite toy
is her Courtly Check bone.
Sometimes she gets a bit mischievous and pulls
things out of the closet wanting to play.
I'm always finding socks scattered about upstairs.
Sadie has the sweetest disposition, loves to snuggle,
and is always right where we are.
And this girl loves to eat!
Our hearts are full of gratitude
as we celebrate five years!
I'm pleased to announce the winner of the
MacKenzie-Childs Green Flower Market Vase is
Bonnie @ Living With Thanksgiving.
Congratulations!
Bonnie, please send me an email so we can get
this pretty vase to you for those spring bouquets.
Look for the Traveling Totes to return June 1st
with new adventures and a new give away.

ReplyDeleteI can't believe the three of you have been together for five years now, it seems like only yesterday that you introduced her to us. What a sweetie she is all dolled up in her Courtly Check jacket and eating dinner from a CC bowl.
ReplyDeleteFleur sends her love!
The gift that keeps on giving. I see how Sadie has stolen your heart Sarah. Sadie is adorable and who wouldn't love to snuggle with her! Lovely pics of you and Sadie. I miss my Bentley (springer spaniel) and couldn't stand the thought of getting another. Maybe someday..........Give Sadie a squeeze for me and hugs to you sweet friend............Happy March.

ReplyDeleteoh Sarah, she is so cute and lovable. I think when we rescue dogs they are so happy to get a wonderful home. I know that she has brought so much happiness to you. Like her choice in toys.
ReplyDeleteI have two rescued dogs and they are the very best.
Congratulations to the winner of the vase.
Waldo and Lili send doggie hugs to Sadie.

I am honored to be the recipient of your Mackenzie Childs giveaway vase. Flowers make me so happy and I can't wait to fill this new vase. This giveaway was perfect for me as having a new vase is like having a brand new outfit to wear.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much.
Sadie it the lottery when she adopted you!
ReplyDeleteI love how our pets become so a part of our lives. So, glad you rescued little Sadie! Thank you for sharing at Dishing It & Digging It!
ReplyDeleteThere is just something about a dog's unconditional love! I am glad your Sadie found a very loving home with you.
ReplyDeleteSadie reminds me so much of our dear Miss Molly, whom we lost very unexpectedly only a few days ago. She looks like a real sweetie and I just know she'll bring you as much love and enjoyment as you'll bring to her.
ReplyDeleteOh Sarah, she is such a cutie! I can tell you adore here (and that's a wonderful photo of you as well!) I'm so glad you found a rescue. They're so dear and need loving homes.
ReplyDeleteI want to retire and adopt a dog just like your sweetie
ReplyDeleteOh My Goodness I am so in love with your little dog. My neighbors two doors down just adopted a small poodle mix that had been surrendered to the Animal Care Society. They call him Mister ;)
ReplyDeleteSadie is such a cutie! It's obvious that she was meant to come to your home. What other dog would love a Mackenzie childs checkered bone? :) Thanks for sharing with SYC.
ReplyDeletehugs,
Jann
Sadie is such a pretty little one! You three were meant for one another - you can see it on her face.
ReplyDeleteSarah - What a precious addition to your family. I'm sure Sadie is as much a blessing to you as you are to her. She is darling!
ReplyDeleteJudy
She's a beautiful girl and you make great portraits of her. The one with the blue flowers is my favorite.
ReplyDeleteI always love reading about your sweet Sadie and seeing your cute photos, Sarah. I know she brings such joy to your life. I also loved reading about YOU as the featured blogger at Michael Lee's party last week. Happy St. Patrick's Day! 🍀
ReplyDeleteYAY! Congrats to Bonnie...she is the sweetest! Sadie is so cute in her MacKenzie-Childs sweater! It's amazing how much joy our fur babies bring us.
ReplyDeleteI hope y'all have a blessed and *fun* St. Patrick's Day!!!
xo,
RJ
Sadie is the sweetest looking thing! I am hoping to get a puppy when we move.
ReplyDeleteSarah,
ReplyDeleteShe is beautiful!! Since Joe is now retired, we are thinking of getting another dog. It has been several years since we lost our Savanna but I think we may be ready to open up our hearts again.If we do decide to get another dog, we will work with a local No Kill Shelter that has such great reputation. Thanks so much for stopping by!!
Hugs,
Deb
She would have captured my heart as well. What a sweetie!
ReplyDeleteDearest Sarah,
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your five years with sweet Sadie Mercedes!
She is one lucky girl for having found her forever home.
On St. Patrick's Day we celebrated our eldest cat boy Barty's 13th birthday. The eldest pet I've ever had!
He had some problems with over grooming but with a steroid injection he's doing well.
Always worrying when your little ones are not well... We never want them to suffer!
Sending you hugs for a happy weekend and we're so glad we got over that final frost this week.
Mariette

ReplyDeleteThat is certainly a nice thing to do! I've heard that rescued dogs are even sweeter than others. Like they know they were saved. She sure is cute.
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful! Those eyes! Thanks for sharing at Home Sweet Home!
ReplyDeleteShe looks just like our first dog we adopted years ago - Sushi - she came with that name ;). Sweet post, I will be featuring you at Home and Garden Thursday,
