Suzie Goes Home

Suzie was adopted over the weekend! Reports are that she's already settling into her new home complete with multiple squeaky toys -her favourite :) She was initially shy of the family when they came to visit her, but Jerrad let Lemon out to do some serious cuddleage, and Suzie decided since Lemon liked them, she'd like them too.

Friendly (sometimes even too friendly) dogs can make a big difference for shy dogs. I'm glad we could help Suzie find herself and her family. I have to admit, she left a bit of a hole when she left. Most of the dogs that land here have a feel of a revolving door to them, but there are some that leave a big piece of them with me when they go. We'll always remember Suzie and her silliness.

Urchin is being a good little monkey, and will have his homecheck tomorrow night -he has a second application in Vancouver too which is pretty cool. He is the last foster before the new year as we are going away for just under two weeks for Christmas. Around his own 'world' IE: the farm, he is an outgoing little terrier dude, but out in the real world he still struggles with fear of newness. He will need someone special who doesn't mind having a puppy who isn't gung-ho about the world, or potentially a rural environment where he doesn't have to go outside into the big, wide world. He gives awesome snuggles though :) Even with the two good applications I worry that people are seeing a cute little hypoallergenic puppy and not the personality of the dog beneath the exterior. Fate will play it's hand I'm sure.

For now it's off to bed. Wednesdays for the next few weeks are going to be crazy with split shifts. 6:30-10, and 3-6:30 doesn't sound super fun to me, but a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do.

Will update soon with Urchin's potential new horizons.
