Pepper (Barts Pepper): 3/9 - Meet Pepper

 

Hi everyone, my name is Pepper, and I have been with my foster parents for about a month now. They say I am still a "spring chicken" because I am only about one and a half years old. I will be two in July!

I was unsure about retirement initially and was worried about most things, but now I am much more confident and love domestic life.

The things I love most are eating, going for walks, and getting to sleep on a dog bed in my foster parents' bedroom! Sometimes in the middle of the night, I'll wake up and give one of my foster parents a little 'boop' with my wet nose. 

 

I am very sweet and affectionate, but I am told I can be a "little clingy" at times. I have no idea what that means, but I figure it must be great. I pretty much hear everything my foster parents say because I don't like to leave their side too often!

Everette (Finish Him): 3/9 - The Great Guard Dog

I’m guarding the main door.  I wasn’t sleeping; you were sleeping. Yes, I told you I’m guarding. It’s better done with just one eye open. 

Sandy (Alto Sun Sand): 3/8 - Slumber Party

The adventures continue! Thankfully, it's starting to get warmer out. I think my face says it all - I am tired of ice!

But lying in the sun is nice, especially when I can both be in the sun AND have a snack...

I've been exploring every inch of FauxHome - you never know where treats might be hidden!

FoSis had a birthday, so we got special birthday treats and FoMo even had us do a little art project. I would never drop hints, but my birthday is coming up in July (the big 5!) and I love treats! FoMo even put our art up once it was dry.

I enjoy trips in the car! I like to look out the windows and take naps, and I am quick to jump in. FoMo insists on buckling me in for my safety, but I don't mind. I just can't wait to get to wherever we're going so that she can let me out and I can explore. Until then, I'll just be a quiet backseat driver!

After car naps, it is of course time for bed naps. I've also continued the hard work of supervising FoMo during the workday. It's a tough job, but somedoggy's got to do it! Sometimes I take a few of my favorite things with me, in case I need them mid-nap - a squeaky toy and a yak chew. Best to be prepared!

P.S. FoMo saw my last message. She says I can't just demand snuggles, that I shouldn't be rude. So with that in mind...send snuggles *please*!

Everette (Finish Him): 3/8 - Life on the Fringe

 If my head is covered in fringe then you can’t find me, right?

Just call me Bohemian Hound Chic!

Dresser (Flashey Dresser): 3/4 - 2nd Birthday!

My foster family went all out to celebrate my 2nd birthday!! Treats galore and new squeaky toys!! ❤️

Tazz (Abington): 3/3 - Recital Time

Tazz is ready for his recital!

Sandy (Alto Sun Sand): 3/1 - WANTED: Snuggles

ok FoMo is in the shower, this is my chance.

HALP.

FoMo keeps telling me I'm not allowed in bed or on the couch. This morning while she was brushing her teeth, I jumped up in bed. Not for my comfort, mind you - I was trying to do her a favor! It's a cold, gray, damp morning and if she decided to skip work and get back in bed, I wanted her spot to still be warm for her! But no, she made me get off the bed and then she went to get ready for work. And over the weekend, I asked the most nicely if I could get up on the couch with her and FoSis. I used my best eyes!

She says my furever home gets to decide the rules for the furniture, not her. But she also says I'm the best snuggler and I have super soft fur, so maybe I can sweet talk my way onto their couch! We took a little nap together in the biggest dog bed this weekend, which was nice. However, obviously the long-term solution is for a family to take me home and let me snuggle them every day. I can't wait! So on this gray day:
