a very, very big day

This morning, Elliot showed me about sharing a dog bed. I haven't felt this warm since I was a tiny pup with my mom in O-hi-o. While we were busy practicing 'good dog socialization,' the people told me that I would be leaving soon so I could learn more things in other places.

Wha? .... leaving?

They said another dog needed my spot here with the Nice People, so I had to be polite and 'graduate' just like Robin did to a brand new place. I couldn't imagine what they were talking about. Did I do something wrong?

Then a knock came at the door and all the dogs got crazy happy to see who was there. It was two people and a girl dog who smelled so good I felt dizzy. Nice Lady said we were causing chaos in the house-place, and we needed to go outside to say hello to each other. It was so super exciting and I forgot for a minute not to hump. Oops!

This New Mister bent down to see me and talked so soft that I felt safe, like he knew me all my life. Then he helped me meet the girl dog all calm-like so I wouldn't hump. She is sooo beautiful.

They said I was going home with her and she would show me more about being a dog. The people talked for a long time to each other about things like my food (my FOOD!) and my itchy skin and my life before California. They asked me to show off my "Sit" and talked about how I sometimes forget to pee outside. They talked about something called 'classes' where I would come back to see my friends.

Then it was time to leave the barn place and the people and Elliot.

I went outside to the car-thing and said good-bye to this place. It was then that I heard the name of the new dog friend who would help me just like Elliot did ... Her very wonderful name is Eva Peace. Isn't that perfect?
