Saying Good-Bye to our puppies one by one is bittersweet. We have now said good-bye to six of our puppies.
Today it was Dark Green Collar Boy’s turn. After breakfast the puppies spent their morning together in the yard playing and exploring. They came inside for a little nap and then ate their lunch. Next came time to get Dark Green Boy ready for his forever family. I tied the “take home blanket” on Ellie to put her scent on it (she wears it like a coat). It was then time to prepare our sweet puppy. I gave him a bath, cleaned his ears, trimmed his nails, brushed him and gave him a quick blow dry. I say quick because Dark Green Boy was not impressed in the least with the blow dryer! I didn’t want to stress him out too much so I decided to let him finish drying outside in the sun. I took the blanket that Ellie had been “wearing” outside for Dark Green Boy to lay on. All the puppies wanted to lay on it too. Now he will have many familiar smells to help him feel comfortable in his forever home.
