Dog Rescue Stories: 15 year old Seven Just Celebrated Her 14th Gotcha Day!

By Positively Woof

In November of 2002, Seven’s forever mom went to a Petsmart in Oviedo, FL with a friend, so she could buy gerbil food. When they arrived, she discovered that Pet Rescue by Judy was having an adoption event.

Seven (originally named Sweetie) was dressed in a little, red “Adopt Me” smock and sitting patiently in a crate. Seven’s mom went straight for her and knew they were meant to be when they locked eyes!


Seven has been in her forever home ever since and celebrated her fourteenth ‘Gotcha Day’ (which her mom has always called ‘Seveniversary’) this past November.

Seven recently turned 15 years old and has been spoiled for the entirety of her birthday month. Here’s to fifteen more years of being safe, happy, and loved!

Thank you so much Otis and mama Nicole! I love you both so much! . . Did you notice that my horn is red and blue? That just screams #preppingforPAWTUS to me! What do you guys think? Are magical UnicornSevens part of the #onedoggyworld? I think so! Can’t wait to celebrate the indoguration with @brodifur, @dustylynnthelab, @ellietheaussieshepard, and @jaggerthegreat1!! . .

#thisisthefaceimake when I’m trying to do #turnovertuesday cause I’ve been slacking and I’m thinking #getthatcameraoutofmyface because there shouldn’t be photographic proof of my immodesty. It’s such a conflicting day. Thank you to @saltytherescuepup for the first tag and @winniethe.lab for the third. @jaggerthegreat1 creator of the second, I hope I made you proud! . . My friend @aussiebellaboo let me know yesterday about #pawsforjolie a hashtag to support a little human named Jolie in her fight against leukemia. You can do it Jolie! You have a bunch of pups in your corner! . . Speaking of @aussiebellaboo, her mama opened a new Etsy shop called @thepinkpuppyshop. She has totally amazingly adorable stuff for pups and their people! She’s even doing a contest to kick it off cause she’s that cool. Go check out her page for more details. . . I’m ridiculously behind on challenges. This doesn’t even put a dent in momager’s list. I can’t help it if I spent a solid week partying. I had to. . . Happy Tuesday friends!

Happy Dia de Los Muertos everyone! Today is extra special for me because it’s also my Gotcha Day! 14 years ago today my mom went to Petsmart to buy gerbil food with her friend where @petrescuebyjudy was holding an adoption event. Mom saw me in a red Adopt Me smock and she couldn’t resist the Seven. We’ve had 14 wonderful years together and we hope for many more. . . Did you know I’m no stranger to social media? This will definitely age me but I had a Friendster account and then a MySpace. And now I’m on Instagram! I am so incredibly thankful for all of you. In a short amount of time I’ve made amazing friends. I am a lucky pup because now I have two families.
