I spent the 4th of July in the U.S. and boy, they know how to celebrate a holiday. We were driving to Kentucky to pick up our puppy and all along the interstate there were fireworks lighting up the night sky. It was spectacular.
I was really impressed with what we saw of Ohio and Kentucky, just beautiful, rolling countryside. And the pot of gold at the end of the trip was our puppy “The Schmooze”.
She’s just 7 weeks old and was really good for the long car trip home. She’s starting to adjust to her new life, enjoying exploring the yard and the house.
The Schmooze was a little uncertain about a statue we have outside, convinced the Buddha was a real person who was ignoring her.
And I know I sound like new parents everywhere when I wonder how something so small can cause such a big upheaval. I also can’t wait to sleep longer than 2 hours in a row. At least with a puppy, the transition isn’t as long as with a baby…plus, it’s not against the law to put a puppy in a crate!
Anyway, here’s a picture of The Schmooze relaxing at her new home. Enjoy!
