It was right after we rescued that poor little frozen stray poodle off the street, that i started thinking that maybe....just maybe, i COULD have five dogs.... I mean, i felt so responsible for that poor little dog, and he was small and wouldn't take up much space, and yes, i would have to work out the fact that he would be older and might not like being chased by a dog eating parrot, but maybe we could work that problem out with time... After a lot of soul searching and worry, i had decided that i would go to the shelter and visit with that little guy and see if i thought it would work. That was Thursday evening...Friday morning he was adopted. I have to admit i was both disappointed and relieved...Then, that same morning i got an email from my niece, who had adopted Ruben's sister. She had decided that she needed to find a new home for her puppy, Little Honey, and did i know anyone who wanted a puppy??? Without even thinking i said yes! I could definitely help her out!
Meet Little Honey...our new puppy... She is much smaller than her brother Rubie, and has more of a terrier personality than he does (Rubie is very laid back) but after just 24 hours of going from a home with two small boys and no dogs, to a home with no small boys and 4 dogs, she is adjusting and doing just fine!
She is learning so much from the pack here...
Meal time is interesting. I could use another hand to pass out the food bowls...

oh my gosh mare!
that is so exciting! i just love how everything always works out the way it is supposed to!
little honey is adorable and one lucky puppy!
Goodness Mare! That is quite a brood you have there. Be careful, pretty soon you will be like Claire and end up with rescued goats, sheep and llamas :)
Hi Melissa and Lola! Yep! We have quite a crew here! Thank Goodness i don't live somewhere where i could take in farm animals!(Tho i did raise guinea pigs and birds in my basement for years....You can keep a farmer away from a farm but you cannot take the farm out of the farmer!;)
Oh- I LOVE the gorgeous haircut they gave the little stray- it is wonderful! And the fact that he was adopted is even more wonderful!
And Little Honey is a honey for sure!!
Mare, I'll bet there is never a dull moment around your house is there? (Especially meal time!)
How nice of you to think of going back for the little poodle - was that how he looked after being groomed?
Little Honey has such a sweet face, looks like she has settled in already. Good luck with them all.
Had to laugh about the dog eating parrot, I could do with one of those to keep my lot in line,lol!

My kids would have such a blast at your house.
Hi Paula! Dull moments...never! I wonder when i hear someone say they are bored! What is bored? How does that happen? What the heck does that mean??? hahaha
Hi Lynne, yes, our groomer Chiloe does a lot of the grooming of the stray adoptable animals for our local shelter and they get as good treatment as a paying customer! I think that is such a sweet act of kindness on her part to donate that service... He looked so nice once all that fur was cut away, i am not surprised he was adopted so quickly ... Honestly, i could feel his sweetness under all that fur and fell in love right away. But it all works out for the best, right? Oh and anytime you want to borrow a dog eating parrot, just let me know! I'll rent him out! ;)
