3 week update...

So it has been awhile since I updated the blog with stories of the puppies. We have had Ebony for 3 weeks now, and she has truly made herself at home, and she has fit perfectly into little family. She is spunky, lively, and just an all around sweetheart. She is so grateful for the warm bed, the fun toys, the yummy food, and the love that she has received over the past few weeks. Ebony is always so happy to see us; even if we have just walked outside for two minutes, she is always there with a smile and puppy kisses. She doesn't mind posing for pictures - in fact I think she kind of likes it. She had to get use to a few things when she first got here (just like the others). She had the stairs mastered within a few hours, but the TV was freaked her out. She had to learn to jump up onto the couches and chairs (which only took her 2 days), and she had to learn to walk on a leash. All of the dogs now enjoy going for walks together although we look like a parade coming down the street. Many people think we are crazy for having four dogs, but others think it is amazing that we have opened our homes to four dogs that had rough lives before they were rescued. When people ask me, "Why do you have four dogs?" I always respond, "Because God believed we had enough love in our family to adopt these precious babies, and give them a life filled with love and care."
Ebony spends quite a bit of time playing; in fact, I think that is all she has done since she came home with us. Toys and Gigi are her main infatuations. Gigi and Ebony spend hours wrestling and chasing each other around the house, and the yard, and over the furniture...
Here they are in action. Trust me, getting this picture was harder than it looked!

Chewy enjoys playing with Ebony and Gigi, but on his terms. Here they are getting ready to pounce on each other. It is a game we call "King of the Couch", because sooner or later someone is going to fall off! LOL!

This was the hardest picture I have ever had to take in my life! I finally got all four of them within lens shot, but I couldn't get them all to look at me. All four of these babies love being outside. They play and sniff; chase frogs and roll in the grass; run fast and sun bath. Oh - what a beautiful life!

Thank you again HUA for four amazing dogs. We couldn't imagine our lives without them.
