Peanut and Cookie

The arizona poodle rescue guys think they can place her, so we’ll try that.
I might even get approved to foster some of their pups once Cookie is gone. I don’t think I need anything special. If I do I am sure they have an equipment leasing arrangement.
Cookie always looks a little worried. She’s relaxing a little bit, but it’s slow work. She spends a lot of time in the closet, she has a nest arranged back there and her favorite pillow and woolie blanket. This morning on the walk she was feeling her oats! What a cutie! And I’ve discovered that she likes a sweater when it’s cold. I think her name might have been Cucaracha, Cuci for short. Or maybe I’m imagining things.

My two dog clients will be going home today. I really enjoyed them, Foxy and Kiwi. Kiwi is the giant German Shepard and Foxy is something else. I can’t figure out what, but she’s so cute! They are real good girls, I had them for about 10 days and really fell in love with them.
But their mom is coming home today, all rested from her cruise, so the dogs will probably get real excited when they see her. Hope I get them again.

Mr. Kilowatt got lucky yesterday. The people who adopted him have a pool built just for dogs with exit platforms all around. They have a three-year-old red heeler male (neutered) already.
They said they have been watching Reddy’s ad and this blog for a few weeks, thinking since they had a young dog and an old dog maybe they needed another. Well, sadly, they lost their 17 year-old blue heeler a couple weeks ago, and they put off contacting Reddy until their grief was under control. Seems the 3-yr-old was getting lonely, so they came looking for Reddy.
He went with Michelle on the leash real smooth, like he knew what he was doing, and hopped into the back of their truck just as natural as you could want. Hope he settles in easy.
We miss him, but there seemed to be a lot more room in the bed last night.
I forgot to send kibble with him, but did get some home cooking and a smelly rug bundled up for him.
Reddy’s new people are going to put both dogs into assistance training. They’ll be able to take the dogs in to a lot more places with working-dog credentials. That’s a good idea. And Reddy loves school, he’s good at it. School at PetSmart really gave him that boost in confidence when he needed it.
Soon as I get your email, Michelle, I will send you Reddy’s baby pics. Here’s some now.

looking back on this month i see that i have been giving out a lot of Reddy Kilowatt and not enough of Lur MacKenzie.
He is such a sweet baby. He has the prettiest face of all of them all. He’s got that two-tone cattle dog eye patch face.
okay, here’s another picture of him.
He’s starting to put on some weight. he’d lost some when he went to the home that didn’t work out. these things are hard on puppies. He came back skinny and spooked. He’s just now getting over the flinch when you put your hand to his face for a pet. it breaks my heart because he was the alpha pup when he left, and the broadest in the chest, starting to put on some chunkiness. now he’s the slender and small one.
I’m told i was too harsh on people who think i may be writing about them when i call someone stupid if they can’t figure out how to make their puppy comfortable. it’s not directed to anybody in particular, just in general, people who don’t think out how to make their dog happy to behave nicely are just one of those things i can’t abide by. dogs really try to make it easy. they just want to behave, all we gotta figure out is how to let them know what we want.
so, i admit i’m a little tough on people, and probably too soft on dogs. just the way i am.
go get yourself your own blog is what i say.
