Puppies heading home


The first two of the puppies have headed to their forever homes this weekend and will both live just a mile apart in Seattle. Hopefully they will get to set up some play dates so they get to see each other. Milah will now be called Paisley and Worf's new name is still being decided. I think the list has been narrowed to Fritz, Otto (nodding to his schnauzer heritage) or Moose.

The 3 remaining boys will be dropped off tomorrow morning for their neuter surgery and then will head home over the course of the next week. Sisko will head to Portland on Wednesday - his new name will be Deiab (Dee-ab). Dax will be next and will be travelling to Beaverton Oregon a week from today. His new name will probably be Dexter. And then last but not least, on the 26th Rom's dad will fly across the country from Baltimore to carry him home. His new name is Hurley.

It has been a wonderful, but exhausting experience. I think we'll stick to adult fosters for awhile. We still have Franny and Star who are waiting patiently for the right home.

The photo above was taken when I had the bright idea to turn the bathroom into the puppies' nursery so they'd have more space. After the demise of a roll of TP and chew marks on the wall I decided that they would have to go back to the ex-pen.
