Well, it's time to reveal Ralphie's next adventure. After reviewing 700+ emails, speaking with several dozen potential adopters and sending applicants on to Ralphie's trainer to review, we found who we believe is Ralphie's perfect adopter.
His adopter's circumstances differ from our original requirements. Some of that has to do with learning more about Ralphie through training- mainly getting him over his reactivity around other dogs. The rest- well, that has to do with Jaso...n being a unicorn adopter.
Ralphie joins Jason's pack tomorrow. He'll live with another Frenchie, a Daschund and a German Shepherd. Jason is uniquely qualified because both his Frenchie and Daschund had bite histories before living with him. As for the German Shepherd- well, he is just lovely and super accepting of everyone.
Jason trains dogs for a living for the Department of Energy in Tennessee. His own personal dogs have super active and enriching lives- running marathons, and placing in agility and flyball.
Jason is exactly what Ralphie needs. He'll provide him with structure, and give him an outlet for all that Frenchie energy. We're told by Jason that he will spam us with updates, but he has also already created a FB and an Instagram for Ralphie so all of you can follow along too. This isn't unusual as Jason has pages for his resident dogs as well- check out screenshots from Cookie and Arthur's pages below.
We wonder how Jason finds time to live his life around all of his dogs' activities. The answer surely must be: he dedicates his life to dogs and that's what makes him a perfect match for Ralphie.
We wish our tiny, reformed terror all the best and we look forward to hearing about all of his adventures. Will agility be his jam, or maybe he'll beat his new sibling, Cookie's 5k time of 36:06??? Whatever his next adventure is, we know he's set up for a successful future!
Thank you to all who shared Ralphie's story and to those who donated to help tame the dragon!🐾❤️🐉
