It really is.
She is an absolute delight and has done nothing to warrant being abandoned twice now.
My heart did sink when I saw the email. I knew there was interest in her but I didn't realise it would happen so quickly.

It's funny Gerri, cos it's really been the last couple of days that she has actually asked for attention. She will now nudge you with her head and ask to be stroked.
That is wonderful considering she wouldn't even walk in a room without being asked in the beginning! Kymm has said the couple are wonderful!
There was a lot of interest but she has chosen these people so I'm sure they will be fine. Thanks matey, we'll be very sad to see her go. I was so tempted to keep her but it would have defeated the object of what I set out to do. xxxxx

I don't think I'll be too happy watching her go Vicki!
Reckon I'll take my 2 out for a long walk but it will be hard. She has fitted in so ridiculously well and initially I did wonder whether we should keep her. But she deserves to be an only dog, the centre of someones world. I know that she has enjoyed her time with us and that it has been so much better than being in kennels. She would have hated that. It'll be wonderful to see photos when she is settled in her new home.

You have started paving a way for this girl that is nothing but great and you should be so proud of Sophie and yourself, you showed her humans don't all treat them with disregard.
I have no doubt there will be tears, it is so hard to hand them over but know they don't just settle for any one willing to take her.
You know where I am if you need to talk xxxx
She really is Emma. There is nothing bad about her and she has the sweetest nature ever. She does make Dylan look like a complete loon, but then he actually is! She is a total lady and very dainty. I have wrongly thought that all rescue dogs will have some kind of issue or problem, but Sophie really is almost perfect. Yes, she is wary of men, but she has shown that with kindness and patience, she can be won over. It's desperately sad that she has been through 2 different homes and I hope more than anything, her new home is the perfect one for her. I know the rescue are very strict, the homecheck I had was very thorough and she wanted to see my cats aswell so I'm sure that all will be well. Kymm, who runs the rescue, is doing the homecheck so that makes me happy too. I want this little girl to know nothing but happiness and contentment for the rest of her life. Thanks Emma, I will no doubt be sending you a message on the 'day'! xxxxx
