Love Is. . .A Fluffy Dog: A Belated Hello to Miss Beauty

So this is Beauty. . .and she is just that! She is our last foster of the season, so we are treasuring every minute with her! I feel bad that I haven't introduced you to her sooner, but it's been a CRAZY week with work and getting ready for our family (ROAD trip) vacation and some new improvements to this ole' mama (I got my hair darkened. . .a bit. . .baby steps)!!

Anyway, so even though it's been busy here, Beauty walked in the door last Sunday afternoon and she's made herself right at home without missing a beat! It just never doesn't amaze me how these sweet dogs can come into a whole new household and just fit it!

I know I'm going to sound like a broken record, but I have to keep saying it when it keeps being TRUE! Beauty is AWESOME!! Gizmo, and my whole family, came to pick her up so she and Giz had 20 minutes in the car to get to know each other and then when we got home, after lots of circling and sniffing, Gizmo, Maddie and Beauty were friends! Boom. . .just like that! We couldn't get enough of her either! She has long white (and a mixture of other light colors), and VERY luxurious hair. It's mesmerizing to just sit and pet her because she's so soft. I can't even explain how good she feels when you pick her up. She's just soft. . .not just her hair but her body. And she likes being held. Once in awhile, if close enough, she'll give you some little love licks! She's just a dream!

I was feeling a bit sorry for Beauty when I brought her home, knowing that because she's heart worm positive, that she's going to have to get treatment right away. I know, I know. . .it's what will make her healthy in the long run. So sure enough, the night before she was suppose to go to the vet. . .she got diarrhea! ugh! I'm not sure if it was the new food, nerves from being around new people and pets OR. . .she didn't want to go to the vet!! lol. Either way. . .it got postponed. But she's good to go now, so come tomorrow, we will try it again!

Just one more quick story. . .The first night, and we don't usually do this on the first night, but Beauty followed Jay and Giz upstairs at bed time. I put her up on the bed, just to hang out with us for a few minutes before taking her down and putting her in her crate. The next thing you know. . .she's sleeping with us! How risky was that!!! Ha! She was perfect! I don't think she knew exactly what was going on at first, but it didn't take her long to realize she was going to get to stay! She snuggled right up to Jay (smart move), slept peacefully all night and in the morning when I got up, I took both dogs off the bed, herded them downstairs and out to go potty they went! I couldn't have gone better!
