Rico's River: 9/28 - If You a Fly Gal, Get Your Nails Done

Big day tomorrow! Foster Mom says it's time to make my debut to a few families. I thought I'd be a little nervous, but I have never slept better in ages! (Notice how I slept in past my usual blog posting time.) I'm so ready! (Again, don't sweat it if you aren't getting to meet me tomorrow, I have plenty of friends for you to meet in the future. Everyone gets their time.)

Today, Foster Mom is going to make sure I am bathed and smelling good as well as trimming my nails to make sure I am good to go for a couple weeks. That way, if you're the lucky human that brings me into your family, all you have to worry about are the cuddles and the foods. So considerate, yeah?

Other than that, I'll be snackin' and nappin' all throughout the day. The human boy didn't have school today, so I'll be rotating snuggles between him and Foster Mom. Can't leave here with anyone feeling left out can I? #rude

So.... I guess this might end up being one of my last posts. *paws crossed* If you don't hear from me, thanks so much for following my journey into retirement. I still can't believe I've lived my whole life and no one told me about peanut butter, but that's beside the point.

To my readers, I hope I've brought a smile to your face every morning with my blog posts and if you're reading this and you're a part of my future family, I hope I bring a smile to your face every day for as long as my four paws meander this earth.



Occasionally, I dabble in snuggling with other pups.


Thanks for supporting me and my journey into retirement! -River
