Annie

Hi,

Annie (Mercedes to you) has been with us 7 weeks now. Cute with her Corgi/Heeler mix. She is a keeper, despite her sometimes too joyful puppy behavior... loves to pull the stuffing out of pillows, her toys, etc..

She feels very at home here, loves to chase squirrels and runs, lopes, like the wind.
She gets plenty of exercise. Mostly she is Matt's companion, lays at his feet or on the carpet to the garage. Doesn't want to be left behind.

It has been a challenge to house break her. When we get up in the night, she does as well. It's been a week now without any accidents.

She wants to attack anything with a loud motor... vacuum cleaners, lawn mowers. That is a strange one.

All in all, she is a sweetie, and we are very happy to have her in our lives. Just not sure who is training who.

Mary Ann and Matt Putzier

Hello

Alice is doing good. I'm still working with her on jumping and nipping at people. She is a very caring puppy. I have noticed that she is also a little clumsy. She enjoys playing frisbee and she actually does fetch. haha.
Thank You

Amanda

Noel


Just wanted to tell you that Noel has been doing just fine here. Most cats I have ever had will hide two days before they come out, but not her! She just investigated everything and then even came up to bed with us at night! She really was fascinated that we had two stairways. I think she went up and down them 100 times. I don't think we will be giving her back! She sleeps with my daughter Kelsey. She eats her food well, she goes in her litter box, so we are happy. She has adjusted to living here just fine! Like she always has lived here. You were right though about her being independent! But she likes attention once in awhile also.

Scooter

Good morning,

See you called yesterday. I work nights so was sleeping. Tom (Fossum) was outside playing w/Scooter. Scooter had a big week.. From your facility, we went to our place in Birchwood. Scooter got to run in the woods, play in leaf piles, go for walks, see deer, and, lastly, go for a pontoon ride. Then back to Mpls to his new home. Adjusting nicely. Already sits (he's so smart). His meeting with Jake-D cat didn't go so well. Jake smacked him on the nose to let him know who's boss. Couldn't get him to eat much. I had already purchased IAM's puppy chow. A light went off. Purchased Pedigree puppy chow. Gobbled it right down. Will try mixing the two & see what happens. Next Thursday we're going to the Vet for a checkup. Will keep you posted.

Thank you so very much for letting us adopt Scooter. He has a way of wiggling right into your heart. So eager to please. Sorry we couldn't take Lucky . Unfortunately, we just don't have the room for two babies.

Thanks again,
Linda Fossum
