Hello!

Dear Birth Family, Woof! My name is Lenny, and I’m a 3-year-old golden retriever. I’d like to introduce you to my amazing humans, Brendan and Beth. My mom and dad met in middle school and have been together for twelve years. Their journey together has been built on deep love, joyful laughter, and mutual respect. They cherish quality time with loved ones and have had many adventures, from summiting Mount Rainier to running marathons and skiing volcanoes. I join them on mountain trips every weekend, though I still can’t figure out why I’m not allowed to eat sticks! We live in a great area with lots of kids to play with, parks to play fetch in, and family nearby. I can’t wait to cuddle and play with a human sibling someday! Brendan and Beth here: While we love being goofy, we also want to take a moment to express our heartfelt gratitude for considering this path and potentially us as parents. Over the years, we’ve dedicated ourselves to personal growth in preparation for the opportunity to raise a child, knowing that we want to honor you by raising them to the best of our abilities. We hope to provide a warm, nurturing environment where your child can thrive, learn, and explore their unique identity—always knowing they are loved unconditionally. We are committed not only to loving your child but also to loving you. We envision building an open, child-focused relationship between us, your child, and you as their birth family. We understand that openness can be complex and that a child's needs may evolve, but we truly believe this connection will be valuable. If openness isn't desired, we will support your child in developing a strong identity, knowing your choice is one made from a place of love. Thank you for considering us as potential parents. We are excited to embrace this journey together and would love the opportunity to get to know you better. With wagging tails and heartfelt gratitude, Brendan, Beth, Lenny (dog), and Gus (cat)

What’s the first thing that comes to mind when you look at the night sky?

The vast, limitless space that is available for discovery and the uniqueness of our unlikely existence.

My favorite place in the World is...

Washington mountains with moss covered trees, aqua blue lakes, and granite rock peaks.

-Beth

Favorite season and why?

Autumn. Mostly because, while growing up, I had the most fun with friends and family in this time (especially halloween!). As an adult, the beautiful change of the leaves, cooling weather, and cozy days brings with it a peaceful comfort.

-Brendan

We are the best choice because…

we would be honored if you felt we were the best fit for you and your child.
