New Digs

The Brindle wanted everyone to know he's pretty happy about his new Florida yard.

Introducing Ivy

What with moving and a multi-day headache I'm a bit delayed again. Lucky for me I really only have one update other than one of my own.

*******************************

Just cell phone pics for now, but I'm too excited to wait and thought you could help me announce...

January 15th I drove up to Sacramento and, with the help of Tracy Hon (Chico Boxer Rescue) adopted Ivy, a 10 year old senior boxer girlie who's only had one day left!


We've only been home a short time, but I think its already love for both of us ;-) After 6 months boxerless, this feels SO good!


The ride home was kinda scary. After 2 shelters, getting poked and prodded by the vet, now I'm stuck in this wire thingie headed I don't know where. Too nervous to even eat a cookie.


Then we stopped at the salon on the way home. THAT was nice! I smell a LOT better now, and my scabby feet feel better too!

Showin' my new Mama that I can sit really good for cookies!

Oh, its definitely naptime! Stay tuned...

Introducing Keela

A while back, New Years Eve actually, I announced to the BML that I had a new fur niece. I was so excited and I still am.

My sister keeps an eye on the classified ads and generally if there is a Boxer she will try to connect them to Boxer Rescue Ontario. Not this time, this time she called for herself. It took some time, a bit of back and forth, but eventually this little fawn girl who went by the name Tequila moved in.

She brought along a few things of her own, like her green sheep, but much of what she has is hand-me-downs. Her collar and leash belonged to Kate and/or Spencer (probably Spencer) and I'm sure they would be pleased.

One very special special thing about wee Keela, she has a natural tail. Isn't it cute as she plays in the snow?

Some of you may remember Paddy from a previous post, well Keela and he have reached some sort of agreement that allows her to use him as a pillow. Sorry this one is a bit blurry, my sister has a hard time holding the camera still when she's laughing.

It's a good thing Paddy is ok with that because who would want to sleep like this all the time?
Finally, my niece took this last one. It's kind of a follow up to some she took of herself with the Brindle. She captioned this one: "One should probably be jealous of my dog, its only natural."
