On Wednesday, we had a foster first. After spending Saturday morning meeting a puppy Knick Knack Pittie Pack was hoping to pull, we headed down to the Frederick County Animal Control to pick up her directly from the shelter. We’ve never walked a dog out of the shelter for their freedom ride before – even Gambit was picked up from the vet that neutered him.
Spring is a sweet little 5 1/2 month old, 30 lb bundle of love and energy. She’s named after the neighborhood in which she was found as a stray, but I’m convinced it’s because there are springs in her legs when she first sees us in the morning and after work.
She’s got one little quirk that we intend to work through… if she’ll show it to us in a home environment, that is.
Spring is a very smart little girl, but since the last time we had a puppy was in March 2012 when Rusty had his first birthday, we are definitely getting used to the whole puppy thing again!
She’s lovely!
Too cute! I love reading about foster puppies! It makes me want one…until I remember just how much work they are! 🙂
We can’t take our eyes off her for a single second. This little post meant a minute of cleanup time!
What a cutie! Pulling them directly from the shelter has got to be one of the greatest feelings in the world 🙂
She was a shelter favorite and in-house foster there (they took her out several times a day to work with her), so we were glad things worked out since she was rescue only due to her little quirk!
I’m so intrigued about this quirk! Can’t wait to learn what it is
She is so cute. Thank You for helping her.Foster’s are a special kind of person.
She looks so much like Julius, it makes my heart melt. I’m also intrigued as to the “quirk” as if just being a puppy wasn’t enough to work through!
