Day 5 (Sunday afternoon in the Hudson Valley)

David took this on her first morning here.  He put it on Facebook, which I don’t ‘do’.  She does a lot of staring in an upward position.

      Well it’s raining like crazy outside, and it hasn’t turned icy thankfully.  Big surprise, Boo wasn’t interested in the rain, but did go down the stairs and do her business.  She’s getting used to them well.  I say, “Step,” each time there is one (two, turn right, “wait'” four more, “good girl'”.  She has gotten to know the door, front steps, the grass to her immediate right, or across the driveway.  She’s walked the ‘loop’ around the house, and met one of her dog walkers on Friday. Believe me when I say, she’s been sleeping on the inbetweens.  So many things to learn!  She has grown to like certain toys better than other and was playing by herself this morning, which was very heartening to see.  She doesn’t seem lonely, and she LOVES the sound of David coming into the room.  It’s adorable.  Gerry was much more mellow.  He’d thump the tail, but no body shakes!

About danielle

I am a rescue mom and school teacher. Gerry came to me from Texas, after he "failed" as a hunting dog. He had NOT had an easy life. I was three years divorced, and we saved each other. Last week I learned he has osteosarcoma. Our world feels upside down...while everyone else is right side up.

    ADORABLE!!! A D O R A B L E!!!!! And yes, I agree, the face of an Angel!!
    I think you can tell how happy we all are for you. It was waaaay too
    long a time to have such a huge void where you were surrounded by grey so often. Leave it to a blind dog who lives in darkness to bring light back into your life….as you surely are doing for him!

    My Merry Myrtle cocks her head and “stares” as she focuses in to “see” what she hears. You’re doing a really good job acclimating Boo to everything.

    And I’m sure Gerry is doing a lot of tail thumping as he watches Boo find out what love and security mean❤

    I keep scrolling back up to look at that picture….yep….I’m in love❤

    Hugs
    Sally and Alumni Happy Hannah and Merry and Frankie too!
