Bittersweet Day

Lobo has successfully completed the first leg of his journey clear across the country! His mom Jan called from Chicago to say he’d been wonderful on his first plane ride! Two more flights to go before he arrives at his new home in Walla Walla Washington! He is traveling as his mom’s carry-on so he has her there there whole time for reassurance. Ollie is on his way to his new home in Delaware now with his new family. Colby just left to go and live with his half brother Riley here in town. Cricket leaves a bit later this morning, she’s moving just across the border to Canada.

They are all ready to go out into the world and start their new lives, and they all have wonderful new homes, but I cry with every one anyway.

Cricket just left with her new mom. Everypuppy who is leaving has left now. Colby has already met his half brother Riley and his dad Chris just posted a picture of Colby zonked out on the couch flat on his back. Jan called to say that leg 2 of the great transcontinental adventure is complete, Lobo had three relatively short howl-a-thons on the plane, but didn’t mess in his crate at all. One more leg to go and he is home safe! We are lucky once again to have such wonderful homes. So much work, but so very worth it. Zhora is enjoying a bully stick in her crate!
