It's always hard when it's time for fosterers to say goodbye to their precious pups they have so lovingly cared for. Here's what Magic's fosterers had to say:
Thank you K9 Medical Detection, especially Pauline for trusting us to foster your precious pup for the last 8 plus months. To be involved in such a professional and worthwhile organization has a been great adventure. Thanks also to trainers Pete, Courtney and especially Leone for your patience and expertise with us (mostly) and Magic. We have learned so much. Lorraine- for the happy respite care for Magic, thanks.
Magic, we have loved having you in our lives- your goodhearted joyous energy and enthusiastic drive. True to your breed, you love being around people and favourite downtime positions usually involve leaning against or on an available human limb.
We will miss you, our golden friend. Fly high Lukhan Gold Flyaway Magic. We know you will have a great life and live up to the plans K9MD have for you. See you soon for a visit.
Love always, Rod and Jos
