Done!

The last puppy has left me and arrived safely in her new home in Florida. She's been living in the house, loose 99% of the time, just like a "big dog" for the last 10 days and has been a very good girl. At the airport, at 4 o'clock this morning, she got a lot of attention and even more smiles from all the people who certainly LOOKED more awake than I felt! One big burly guy who looked like a pro wrestler walked passed and gave us a huge "awwww!" I had parked her crate in front of one of the check-in spots and was sitting, with her in my lap, across the room (small airport, only about 20 feet away.) People checking in kept bending down and looking in the crate trying to see inside. One fellow got lower and lower and finally knelt on the floor. I was cracking up! His buddy glanced in my direction, saw the pup on my lap and burst into laughter. Puppy seemed quite relaxed, so it was a good departure for all of us.

Funny to think it will be about 5 months before I'm back out there... Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas... all over and done with for the year by then. My, how time flies!
