Zen Animal Love Story: Jellybean + Rosana

There's nothing like the love we have for our furry friends, so we're starting a new feature this month called "Zen Animals Love Story," through which we tell the touching stories of how our pups met and fell in love with their humans, and vice versa! Jellybean is our first feature, she is one of our regular doggie daycare pups, and she came to her Momma @rosanavidal thanks to  @waggytailrescue

The love story started years ago when Rosana first started craving the company of a pup, but knew the timing wasn't right. She waited years and years until in October of 2017 she started having a series of dreams that she had a dog. In November she dreamt she had a dog named Jellybean, and decided to reach out to @waggytailrescue and give it a shot. The first dog they sent her was Ella, who was a stray dog staying in a high kill shelter in Texas. Days before she was put down, Holly, the owner of Waggy Tail Rescue, placed her into foster care with Rosana. 

It was quite an adjustment for Rosana. After 24 hours of fostering, she was begging Holly to find someone to adopt Ella. The dog was super sweet but was more work than expected and very disruptive to her life. Holly assured her they'd find someone to adopt Ella soon. After one week of fostering Ella, Rosana called Holly to tell her there was no way she was parting ways with little Ella. In just one week they had become inseparable and Rosana was head over heels in love. She changed her name to Jellybean and they've been together ever since!

Three fun facts about Jellybean:

  1. She loves broccoli, cucumbers, carrots, and just about any other non-leafy vegetable

  2. She’s fast as a bullet and loves chasing squirrels (though she’s caught up to one or two and jumped over them)

  3. She stands on Rosana to wake her up in the morning
