Foster update

We said goodbye to Wiggles this morning as he makes his way to Rhode Island for his new and forever home. Somebody is getting a very, very good dog, and we will miss him a bunch.

On Monday we will pick up our next temporary foster pup Sunny. Sunny has another foster home with lots of rambunctious dogs to go to, but he is being neutered on Monday and needs a quiet place to rest for 4 or 5 days. Sunny is lab/pit bull mix and really looks like you took Wonder (our lab) and Lexi (our pit bull) and mixed them together. How cute is he???

Mr. WIggles update

It sure is a good thing that Mr. Wiggles already has a forever home to go to on Friday. He is an absolute gift! He is super snuggly with lots of kisses for all, he loves to play and hasn't had any accidents in this short time we have had him. I know we are going to miss him a bunch!
This weekend I was attempting to take some pictures of all my furry & non-furry children separately to collage together and put on Christmas cards. Easier said than done when working with 2 dogs, 5 cats & 2 humans! I only got 1 suitable picture out of the bunch. I guess I will just have to use pictures I already have.

Happy Thanksgiving

Today we are thankful for all of our wonderful family and friends (furry & nonfurry)! It doesn't really feel like Thanksgiving as I don't believe we have ever celebrated alone before. We have always had company or gone visiting, but not this year. This year we hung out, just the four of us, 5 cats & 3 dogs. And you know what? it was ok; not as much pressure to make sure everything is cooked to perfection. And, since cooking is my least favorite thing to do, I was alright with that.

We picked up Wiggles yesterday and he is an angel. He has very good house manners and has hooked right up with Wonder and Lexi, playing and sleeping on the couch. We are getting attached already, so luckily he has already been adopted out.

Mr. Wiggles is coming to visit

We finally received word about which foster pup we would be babysitting over the Thanksgiving holiday.

I present to you: MR. WIGGLES!!
Mr. Wiggles is a 6 month old,25 lb border collie mix. He has been adopted and is being transported to his new home with a vet student on December 4. More to come, when he gets here and we get to know his sweet precious personality.

Busy, busy, busy

Haven't had much time lately, been running like a crazy woman all week. KK & I are off to Memphis tonight for a soccer tournament. The rest of our crew is staying home to take care of each other. We will be back on Sunday, so hopefully everything is intact when I return.

We have volunteered to foster a foster puppy for CCR over the Thanksgiving holiday. There are plenty of foster families who are going away and need someone to watch over their furbabies for 4 or 5 days while they are gone. Nobody wants to waste money on kenneling them, so temporary fosters are the answer! And really, can/does anybody really love on them at the kennel?
I don't know who or what yet, but we will find out on Monday and we are excited!!
