The Gowan Journey : July 2014

We have two little Angels in this Gowan household, and many of you have been asking how our other Angel has been doing.

Before we left for Virginia, Caleb and I were worried about where we would leave Angel while we were gone for the summer. We prayed that God would provide a place where she could be happy and not miss us too much, since she has separation anxiety. We knew we couldn't just board her up in a kennel, and our options were looking slim, but then God answered our prayers and provided, once again. One of Caleb's Marines offered to take her in! He has a dog who she could play with and a big backyard to play in. We had them meet a couple weeks before we left and they got along great. His wife has been taking pictures and we are so happy that she is in a great home and being well taken care of. It makes me happy to see her thrive and get along with other dogs, as this has been a constant issue that we have had to deal with. She looks like she is having the time of her life, with her new boyfriend, Mac.

Playing a game of catch. Mac is a German Shepherd/Chow mix, but both of them have similar features!

Angel is seriously in LOVE with Mac. When they first met, she couldn't stop giving him kisses/licking him on the face. When he moved away from her, she would cry and he would come back so she could continue kissing him. How sweet is that?!

Mac now joins Angel in her Kennel. It's their little home together =)

Having a little treat session with the neighborhood dogs.

Mac injured his paw and had to go to the vet. They told us that Angel knew he was hurt and was crying for him because she felt bad. True love, indeed.
