Joey mastered the doggy door immediately, is very active but behaved, and went snowshoeing the very first day in the adjacent National Forest. (OK, I really don't think Joey snowshoed, just one of her new people, but I bet Joey could snowshoe; she gives the impression of being extremely capable!)
After performing her hostess duties to Skywalker and me, Joey demonstrated how adorable & important she is by standing on her back paws, little wagging tail straight up, to look out the windows to survey her Queendom. She moved next to her throne on the back of the sofa so she could enjoy the mountain views and keep a close eye on the horse next door. She hasn't met the resident horses yet but I'll bet they will all be friends (and Joey will let them know she is the new boss).
Big thanks to Joey's foster home, the CP volunteers and contributors for making it possible to take this little Cairn into rescue. And huge thanks to the wonderful couple who gave Joey her forever home!
Want a dog like Joey? Go visit the Available Cairns at the Col Potter web site and pick out your little sweetie!
Joey loves visitors! And she went on another big hike today -- but I forgot my snowshoes, so it was slower. She is mastering that extended leash and just loves the snow!
ReplyDeleteBest wishes to Skywalker on his journey.
