Recovery Day

Picked up Tucker late yesterday afternoon from the vets.. introductions went really well.  First with Sasha and just a little growl from her (probably means, seriously; another one?), and then with Shelly, who was very interested in him and he her, lots of sniffing.  She was a bit submissive to him, which I think is a good sign.  Then all three together in the yard and then into the house.  It's been quite peaceful really.

When I took Tucker out for a potty break, Shelly tried to get him to play and ran laps around him.  He's just not ready yet, but they are on the way to being good buddies.  And Shelly is more interested in Tucker than Sasha, so Sasha is getting a break. 

Tucker is recovering nicely, comes out of his crate for a bit for some attention and then back in for sleep.  It's super nice having a dog that is comfortable in his crate.

Shelly's sad that Tucker doesn't want to play

Tucker time!

New dog is coming tomorrow.. He is three years old and very beautiful.  He is being neutered tomorrow, in addition to coming to a new home... Lots of changes so we (Sasha, I'm talking about you) will be taking extra care when introducing him to his foster home.  Will be stopping at the store to pick up another foster mom guilt "that you just got neutered" bone before bringing this boy home to recover

He is very handsome.  Here is to Sasha finding a new BFF!

Moving to the Westside!

Little Shelly has been officially adopted!  Lisa, her husband and their two little girls over in Seattle have adopted Shelly and I will be bringing her over to the New Rattitude reunion and meet them there.  We loved being the ones to take care of this sweet little puppy until she found her furever home.   We will miss her (Cassie will really really miss her) but we are so happy that she has found a loving home that will give her all the love and attention she deserves.   Yeah for Shelly

OMG - I have a tail!

Shelly discovered her tail last night and wouldn't stop trying to catch it, with varying degrees of success.

My Duck!

Gave Shelly a de-stuffed squeeky duck and she really enjoys playing tug with it, fetching it, chewing it and also hiding it in various places around the house and outside!

This was just too cute of  picture not to share!

Debating whether or not she should jump up and get it

Mine mine mine!

Farwell Fuzzy Pink Toy!

Shelly had fun this morning attacking a pink fuzzy toy... got the squeeker out and chewed it until it didn't work anymore, spread the fuzzy insides out all over the place and just all around attacked it until it was empty and no more fun... Then she took a nap... All that work was exausting! 

it's almost as big as her!

yeah, i did it!

Bath Day!

Cassie took her to the park today and she played with a little dog, tried to chase some birds and was curious about the water. I really think she will be a little swimmer.

Finally, Shelly's 10 days are up from her spay so she got to take a bath!  Again, happy to be in.  Didn't really enjoy the puppy shampoo, but just enjoyed the water and did figure out how to sit in the tub.  Now she's all soft and sweet smelling.. Nice too to have a short haired dog that dries super fast.  I always have to take a dryer to Sasha with all the Pom hair.
