Our newest foster: Lucy

Last night we picked up our newest foster dog from the airport. At this point I don't know much about her other than her name is Lucy, and that she's around 4-5 months old.

The Ratbone Rescues Team extraordinaire transported Lucy from the Midwest (I believe) down to the Rat Terrier Jamboree that took place in Sweetwater, Tennessee last weekend, and from there one of our local Ratbone gals here in Washington, Levecke, carried her on the plane and brought her back to Washington. We met them at the airport last night around 10:30pm and did the puppy hand off.

She wasn't very happy about having to sleep in the crate last night, away from people, but we turned on the radio for her and she quieted down after about 5 minutes of whining. This morning all of last nights timidity was gone and she had a long romp with Suki and Frodo, giving both of them a run for the money, thanks to her puppy exuberance.
She's absolutely darling and extremely well behaved. We look forward to telling you more as we learn the details of her story.
