 Mallard is HOME! It’s Foster Fail Friday so we’re sharing the happy news 😊
Mallard, with his new dad John, starts each day by walking 2 miles on the beach in FL and he will be John’s only dog so will have LOTS of love… forever. Congratulations!!! #fosterfailfriday #onlydog #segsprescue  Lorelei, who came to rescue with her sister Lydia from a shelter in MS after someone witnessed them being dumped, is doing SO VERY great in rescue, that she wants to stay right where she is! Yup, another foster fail on a Friday 😊
Her foster dad said, “She is definitely a puppy LOL she has tons of energy. We have been working with her with men (she is very skittish of men). She’s finally trusting us. She definitely was abused but she’s learning we all aren’t bad. Training is coming along. I will be working with her more in the next couple weeks.” This is Christy and Jason’s 2nd SEGSP foster dog, but their first SEGSP Foster Fail. And we couldn’t be happier that they fell in love with Lorelei. ♥️ #fosterfail #happyday #segsprescue Jeff has done it! He convinced his foster family that he should never leave them. Yup, another successful foster fail. His mom said, “Jeff is the happiest, loviest, and goofiest boy ever. During the day he likes to lounge in my office or under my desk where he can keep his eyes on me as I work, but in the afternoons when my husband gets home, he turns into man’s best friend and there is no separating them. He even likes to sit with me for red light therapy sessions because we both want to be young forever! If he isn't in couch potato mode, he is wrestling with his GSP brothers or cracking us up by throwing his toys for himself and sneaking up on them to pounce. We didn't intend to foster fail, but we just realized that he was where he was meant to be, and we couldn’t imagine coming home to a house without our little Jeff Jeff.” A big thank you to Jennifer for transporting him to rescue (we have awesome volunteers). And, of course, CONGRATULATIONS to Jeff and the Young family!  “Hey guys, go ahead and tell them already!” Okay, okay, Boomer. Let’s do it! Boomer has decided that he’s right where he belongs and is making his foster family his forever family! And we couldn’t be more thrilled! His new mom Kayla said, “Boomer is the most kind-hearted, gentle, and friendly guy. He always wants to be by our sides, whether it’s playing fetch, going on walks or car rides, or snuggling up next to us under a blanket. As first-time fosters, we didn’t know what it was going to be like for us and our other two dogs, but we quickly realized Boomer was meant to come into our lives and we are forever thankful that he did. Boomer had made our family feel whole .” What an amazing happy ending and wonderful beginning for his next chapter. Boomer, we think you’re right, you seem exactly where you’re supposed to be. Congrats all around!  Let's start the week off with great news... Hazel, now Maggie, is Home! Maggie went through a lot since coming into rescue, from quarantine, being in heat and then spay and entropion surgery. But she is now out of her shell, feeling good and enjoying life. Her foster mom said, “It was hard to let go. But we know she's gone to a good home." Thank you, Sandra and Bridgette, for all you’ve done for Maggie! And congratulations to Maggie, Danny and Todd – we are so happy for you all  Racket is officially home with his new mom Melody.
“The minute I met Rackit, I knew he was sent from heaven to redeem and heal the sudden passing of my GSP “Ike” to bone cancer that I lost Ike 18 months ago. After our family grieved him, I prayed to have another GSP in my life that would be a bonding, loving family member. My daughter Isabel came across your wonderful organization in December 2024, and I started browsing the website, waiting for the right one! One day, Rackit appeared and his description was spot on. A fun-playful and energetic cuddle-bug, longing to have a permanent home. I knew he was the one when his foster mom, Caitlyn, said that he “had too much energy”. After a long wait, my heart, OUR hearts are full! Our home is Rackits’ forever home We love him so much already and I can’t wait to spoil and build a life of memories and travel with my boy Rackit has more energy than any GSP I have had, even at almost 5 years old. He gets early morning walks and long ball time play in the evenings, plus park play dates with other family dogs. Rackit is settling just fine and now “guards” the house with loud bark and loves his back yard. This is his second month with us and it feels like it’s been a year already. Such a sweet boy and a gift! I’m so grateful that my daughter who convinced me to adopt instead of looking at a litter. Rackit is more than I prayed for! Thank you SEGSP rescue for what you do ” What a happy story! Congratulations to all.  Congratulations to Millie who has found her forever family! Her dad James said Millie is wonderful. She can be a handful but once she has her nightly teaspoon of peanut butter, she is a very happy girl.
We’re so happy for Millie who came to rescue from a shelter pregnant and had 10 puppies during Hurricane Milton. What a great rescue story! A very special thank you to her first fosterers, Karter and Storie, who had whelping experience and agreed to help her, as well as Lea who fostered the last month and found Millie’s forever home.  Radar has made it to his forever home! We love happy endings, and this is certainly one of them.
Radar came to SEGSP last year in his Mama Millie’s belly. Milie came from a GA shelter and SURPRISE; she gave birth at the end of her transport to Florida (in-between hurricanes). Radar was very lucky to have his foster mom Erica take the time to find the right home for him. This is Erica’s 3rd foster dog for SEGSP, and she always does an amazing job! And of course, his temp foster parents Karter and Storie who helped bring him into the world. Congratulations to Radar and the Hoffman family!  This one isn’t truly a “foster fail”, it’s close enough. Cowboy has been fostered by the Hurst family, including their adult son Alex. It didn’t take long for Alex to fall in love with Cowboy and decide he wanted to adopt him (Cowboy agreed of course).
Cowboy is looking forward to new adventures with his dad and we can’t wait to get updates. We are very thankful that the Andalusia Animal Shelter made the effort to find SEGSP and ask for our help with Cowboy. He had some challenges that his foster family worked on (marking, afraid of fireworks and crates, etc.) but working through the challenges just made them love him more. Congrats Cowboy and Alex!  A huge congratulations to the Gould family on the adoption of sweet Gordon this past weekend! Gordon came into rescue as a very sick boy, but thanks to the incredible care and dedication of the Helbling family, he made a stunning transformation. Their love gave him the strength to thrive, and now he’s off to his forever home. What a beautiful journey — thank you to everyone who made it possible
