Bonnie now Bella!

We actually renamed Bonnie because Travis and his mom didn't really like the name (I don't know why). But her new name is Bella and she comes to it very well. She's understanding the difference between going potty outside and making a mistake inside. Got her stitches out the other day and she healed up wonderfully. I took her to my friends house over in Spooner right after and she slept the whole way there and back. I have also started leash training with her, and it only took a couple of tugs on the leash to get her used to it, (or when she would just stop). She also likes to walk under our feet when we play with her outside or when we're walking around.

But we are very happy with her and Gus is always playful with her :). 

I'll make sure to take some pictures soon and email them to you.

I'll keep in touch.

Clyde!

Clyde, now Rhodey, is doing really good. He is already growing and full of energy. He is getting more used to his kennel and going to the bathroom outside. We went to the vet yesterday and he does still have worms, but we are treating that and hopefully they will go away this time. Other than that, he is a healthy boy. Here is a pic of him playing with his new favorite toy, the hedgehog.

Simon & Domino

The kittens are doing fine, they settled in the next day after playing for hours the first day. Domino figured out how to get on the kitchen table right away, not sure how and Simon likes to climb the curtains. We have some work to do. :) Domino instigates the rough housing.

Roc!

Roc is a wonderful addition to our family and we couldn't be happier. He is spoiled and spoils us with love. He sleeps and guards his boy all night with diligence an let's everyone know he's on the job with any approaching sound;), we've learned to announce ourselves before checking on them before we go to bed. We're working through puppy biting but he learns quickly. He's fetching the ball now an loves to play tug a war. 

He moved his blanket to the middle of the living room so he can be the center of attention, and he usually is. 

He's a blast and living large! Thanks for letting us adopt him!

Sam our Man!

Just giving you the update that we LOVE LOVE LOVE Sam! He is so sweet and a good boy! He must have been loved a lot somewhere (I know you all cared wonderfully for him) because it is like he has always been in our home. He rode fine home, and has made himself right at home.  Of course this could be the honeymoon phase, but we will keep you posted. Thank you again!

Haddie!

Hi!
Megan (now named Haddie) is doing wonderful. Haddie is a true water dog! She could fetch the ball in the lake for hours if we let her! Towards the end of the summer she has even worked up the courage to run and jump off the dock after the ball! Lucky for her we live right next to a few lakes so its just a short walk for her. She has really come a long way, though she is still timid in many situations. She has a very humorous personality and is always keeping us laughing. She has also learned sit, shake, hi five (her favorite) and lay down. She still needs to work on walking on the leash but I think we will make more strides this winter where there is no lake calling her name the entire walk! Thanks for everything you guys did for her before she came home with us, she has been the perfect addition to our family and really adds so much to our lives. Here are a couple pictures!

Thanks again!
Tayler and Zach (and Haddie!)
