Poppy Settles In

We are so happy to have Poppy with us now. She was a little shy at first, but quickly warmed up. She is a sweet dog, and her puppy antics are fun to watch. She has meet so many new people, and even walked to pick up the kids from school on a leash. When people meet her, they can't keep their hands off of her, and she is really enjoying that. (With warnings to wash their hands, as she has just a tad bit of a cough left from a respiratory illness she is recovering from.) She is a tad bit gentler than some puppies I have fostered. She is not as mouthy, but she is obviously still a puppy and loves to chew objects.
She is enjoying her new foster dog brothers. She jumps on them and chases them, and plays tug with the toy rope with Seamus (an australian shepherd.)
She is working on her housebreaking, and really understands how to get down to business outside so she can get right back in the house. :) She is great in the crate, and sleeps there all night now. The first night here she had a hard time being separated from her little mates, though she made most of the night just fine alone in her crate. A few hours before morning, after a quick potty break {{{yawn}}} she just came into bed and slept with her foster mommy until it was time to get up. She didn't need to do that last night, and made the whole evening in the crate.
We look forward to getting to know her better, and finding her a forever home too!
