Sunset in the Forest

So where do you go when you're all dressed up in a pretty pink sweater? The Forest of course!

Stoppin' to get some lovin'.

Sun worshipping.

Ice skating! Mia likes to run on the ice.

Putting on the brakes! Cuz there was something that smelled really good in the grass.

Thanks for checking in on me!

Update: Mia has a foster home set up for this Friday - she still needs to meet her roommate dogs and we have to find a way to get her very large "Mia proof" crate from one end of the city to the other - truck anyone? But we are sure we will figure it out!

We are so thankful for all of the emails and phone calls and links and donations and offers to help - there are a lot of good people out there - thank you all from Mia and all of her friends.

I am sure Erica is very grateful to all of you.

We are still looking for a forever home for Mia - if you are interested please email Susan at sarrobin@sbcglobal.net or call her at 773-512-1053.

Happy, happy new year!

Mondays with Mia

Week One. Since Erica passed Millie has been hanging with her Auntie Kira and Mia has been boarding at K9 University. We wanted to be able to spend some time with Mia and allow her to spend some time with her sister Millie. Three of us, all friends of Erica, have Mondays off so we decided to plan an outing. It was a beautiful day so we decided to pick up the girls and head to the lake at 31st street - lots of parking and not as much commotion as the northside.

Mia and Aga and I got there first and hung out waiting for Millie and Sharyn. Several kids were playing along the lakefront and were very interested in Mia, she was relaxed and curious and very well-behaved.

Sharyn brought Millie and they had a happy reunion. Sharyn thought to bring long leashes and we headed off walking the lakefront in the sun. The girls had a glorious time smelling and rolling in the goose poop. We had a good time trying to keep them from becoming a tangled mess.

Several times Mia would look back at us and stop and we realized that she wanted to stop and have some loving. So we braved the goose poop infested grass and just relaxed. Well, we relaxed. Mia's sister Millie is a "lets get this walk done" kind of girl so we soon headed back to the cars.

Next stop was for ice cream at Scoops in Bridgeport. Everyone had a cone, including Mia who swallowed hers almost whole, and since Millie only wanted a few licks Mia finished hers off as well. Passersby enjoyed watching the girls enjoy their cones. Both were well behaved with people passing by, even a whole class of very young children in uniform with their teachers.
Two pitties licking ice cream cones - a good image for them to take home with them I think.

Last stop we dropped off Mia at her digs at K9 University with a care package of Dingo bones, a new bed and some new food. We kissed her good bye and told her we would see her next week. It was a good day.
