Good Monday Morning to All;
First and foremost to thank those of you who have already picked up their pups, and who will also be picking them up today. This you have done this out of care and concern for Milly; putting your own schedules and plans on hold to safeguard the health of my own dog. I thank you for your compassion- And realize too that you have your hands full with only one dog! Milly sure had her paws full with the 10 of them- and I am sure that if she could speak, she would thank you too.
Mary and Michael came to pick up their new puppy on Saturday- And are so happy with the little one!
She called me to tell me he went wee-wee outside!
Poo'ed too!! YAY!!
They are not exactly sure what his name will be- She likes "Buddy" - Will see what the kids decide then! Fun to get to go through this all for them. They bought a ton of toys and such for the pup. He will surely not get too bored!
She wrapped him up tight in a blanket on the way home. She drove so Michael could do a little puppy-lovin'. Michael had to go to work last night- and miss out on all the initial "getting to know you" ...Am sure he made up for that yesterday while Mary had to work; he even gave the little one his first bath! Rita had the job to set up the kennel- A bit confusing at first, but sure didn't take her long to get it set up right either!
As far as Miss MillyMom goes, after a pup leaves, she does look around a bit- Satisfied then that her little one is not "lost" somewhere she seems to understand somehow.
My friend Kelli called Saturday night- and offered to take the time off and go to Milwaukee with Casey and I when we go to Froedtert. I think this is so kind; (and that it would be very cool to have her along too). Love to laugh with her! Perhaps she will prove to be our little good luck charm!
I began pulling every little weed from the barngrade- am about one third done with that; I will be planting my Devils Claw seeds there this year. I imagine it will be much like The Briar Patch fo' de wabbits...
I'd better keep this shorter for today- my connection here doesn't seem to be too stable this morning, and it keep flickering- Hope it posts anyway-
I thank you again,
Anne
