In the photos above ... on his arrival at Schipol, two years ago. Bobbie now.
When we had to euthanize our dog of 16½ years in 2014, we
wanted to have another dog from a Dutch sheter. We were busy looking at the various sites when we suddenly came across A.C.E. We had never heard of
this organisation, but still we went to look at the site. How many dogs there were, all of whom had as
much right to a good home, so we immediately decided to adopt a A.C.E. dog. It
was very difficult to choose, but in the end we opted for Bobby (8699). Bobbie
was rescued from the death station by Ankie van Vught; she was an intern at
A.C.E.
On June 27, 2014, Bobbie arrived at the airport and he was scared. When
he was taken out of his bench he crawled right away under a row of chairs.
After he was again brought out, he lay down on his back and was afraid to walk
again. So then we carried him to the car. When we arrived home we let him loose and from then he began to settle down.
Bobbie remains afraid of thunder
and loud noises; then he immediately disappeared under the bed. Nevertheless, he is a happy, very sweet dog who loves anything edible (even outdoors). He knows
when it's dinner time and coffee time. He won't give you any peace and you can't sit
quietly. To other people, especially to children, he is very sweet, especially
if someone has a bag of treats for him.
We are very happy with Bobbie and really couldn't be without him.
Greetings from Madeleine and Aimée
