...are home! A huge thank you to Karen and Sarah, who drove us out to Byford in Craig's diesel-sucking beast, helped load two bedroom-sized dog kennels into the back (well, Chester's wasn't quite that big), then drove us home with two very large, hot dogs in the back drooling down their necks. Chester sat in my lap and Dixie snuggled up with her Iain, and we made it home.
They got the grand tour of our new house (which has an orange tree in the backyard-an orange tree!), and loved it right away. We had the bedroom all air conditioned for them, and they seemed pretty thrilled with that. They ran around and explored and even got the zoomies- not too shabby for two senior dogs in 38 degree weather! Next up was the full beauty salon treatment for the two stinky mutts. They were both brushed and bathed, and had their teeth cleaned and nails clipped. Only then were they allowed to pass out in our bedroom...on our new mattress, of course.
Because of the disorganization of our move, we don't have many dog supplies yet- a definite first for us! Case in point? The dogs' water dish is actually our new wok, but I'm pretty sure the critters don't care about the details. They are home, and our little family is back together again.
