That Didn’t Take Too Long

As of today Piper has been with us 21 days and it is now official. Little Piper is no longer a foster!! Where is her new forever home, you ask? Why where else but right here.

After much debate, it was finally decided that there was just no way we could let this little sweet Newf go to another home.

As you can see, she’s already quite comfy in her new surroundings.

Since we haven’t taken her out much as we needed to first get familiar with her and her with us. Then we had to deal with her getting spayed, here are a couple of pictures to give you an idea just how tiny our little 2 yr 9mo old Newf really is.

Here is Fargo at 1yr old and 115lbs in a standard childs wading pool

Here is Piper in the same kiddie pool

As you can see, pretty tiny for a Newf…and yes, she really is a Newf! We have the AKC papers!

Piper Our Foster

Friday, July 24th, 2009

 This is Piper, our new foster girl.

 

Piper is a very sweet girl who will soon be 3 years old.  She is housetrained, crate trained and gets along well with other dogs as well as cats and would do best in a home with at least one canine playmate.  She knows her basic commands and is quickly picking up new things.  Piper is so people oriented and eager to please that she’s a joy to train with!  Her house manners are excellent as well and she’s required just the occasional reminder that all four feet belong on the floor rather than on the counter. 
 
 
Piper is a petite girl who stands 22 inches at the shoulder and weighs 80 pounds.  When she came to foster care her coat was severely matted and there was no choice but to shave her.  Her new coat is coming in nicely, however.  Piper also has a mouth deformity but it does not affect her ability to eat, drink or give kisses!  She has been spayed, vaccinated, and is heartworm negative. 
 
Piper has lots of love to give to her new family and is eagerly awaiting a forever home!
