My foster mastiff Grace got adopted today! I'm happy for her but the selfish side of me doesn't want her to leave

Shes been with me a year and a half now but Sunday we will make the drive to Parsons TN for her happy ever after!

Awww...she is beautiful. A year & a half is a long time. That is the only set back for me is getting attached. Hope this is a family that will keep you updated & send you pictures.

It is hard and she has been here awhile apparently 120 isn't the weight range most people are looking for lol. A super great home though so I know she will be very happy and well taken care of. I tell myself I have to let go to be able to save more.... Or animal planet will be knocking on my door wanting to record an episode of hoarders

1-1/2 years...WOW, Way to be strong, I could never do what you do...I would end up being the person you see on hoarders lol

Bittersweet, isn't it? Good for you for letting her go!

She is 15 or 20 pounds larger than Tucker but gosh, that face looks familiar.

I couldn't do the foster thing but I appreciate those who can.

I've always loved mastiffs as well as boxers. Maybe it's the fact that they come from the same family line.
