A Christmas puppy for Misty's boys!

After a harrowing trip through ice and snow to Casper, Wyoming Misty and Dan made it home to surprise the 4 boys with an early Christmas present. They slid off the icy road on the way to Wyo. on an overpass and went into a ditch after hitting a mile marker sign and denting their truck slightly. A kind samaritan had a chain and pulled them out and they continued on their way. They chose a different route home and made it safely without incident. They kept us posted every few hours and spent the night in a Super 8. Little Tessa did pretty well but didn't like her crate since she and her siblings were born on a ranch and are used to running wild. She's really pretty and has a cute personality. She's a mix of Cur and Red Healer. As soon as Misty can clip her nails she'll be easier to hold. All in all I'm glad it's Misty's family and not me who's got a new little one!

Amen to that!
You would think that there were so many other puppies that could use a great home so much closer to them so they wouldn't have had to take that scary road trip! Let them know if they need anything to give me a call. Raising a new puppy is very challenging, to say the least. I can give them some hints and tips to help them if they like.
Merry Christmas!
