Peanut's Happy Ending

My husband Ron and I adopted Peanut. Peanut is doing very well in our family. Within a few days after coming to our home, Peanut had his first seizure. I thought it could have been brought on from the move into a new situation, but he has had subsequent seizures since then. The seizures are very infrequent and don't last long. He is doing great now that he has settled into our home, and he knows this is his permanent home. Peanut goes to sleep in our bed every night and once asleep barely moves the entire night. Previously we had two cockers (since passed away) who slept with us and Peanut is a very welcome addition.  

Our daughter and her 12 year old son are living with us temporarily. My grandson does have friends in the neighborhood and when they come into the house Peanut must be watched. It seems he might have been mistreated, because he does have a problem with young boys, although he is okay with just my grandson alone. Except for this occasional small problem, Peanut has adjusted well to his new home situation.  

In general, Peanuts adoption has been a very positive experience for our family. I feel very good that we protected Peanut and that he is a very happy and contended dog.
