There are easy fixes, quick fixes, things impossible to fix, things too old to fix, baby fixes and one of my favorite - puppy fixes.
We had a house guest this afternoon in the shape of a 7 week old yellow lab named Wrigley. Wrigley is one of the pups from the litter my son's dog sired. What a totally adorable bundle of soft fur and puppy breath. Fuzzy, warm, cuddly, nosey, whiney, silly, enchanting and totally way too much work! Okay, his whole world changed yesterday when he was separated from his Mom and siblings. So granted he was a little vocal about the abrupt change of living arrangements.
Come to think of it Hank wasn't too thrilled either to have this little visitor. Sophie was stressed, but it doesn't take much for her. Mickey was interested, but the thrill wore off quickly, and I'd have to agree.
I had a friend come over for a puppy fix and she would have taken the pup home with her. She has dibs on puppy sitting this week if the weather keeps Wrigley from traveling to his new home in Kansas City. Reno also adored him. They stretched out on the sofa and they had a nice nap together. Wrigley on his chest, man and dog bonding with whining and snoring. I'm not saying which was whining and which was snoring.
Did I mention how cute he was? Oh ya, and remember how often they have to go out? After napping, after playing, after eating - repeat. All afternoon was just enough of a fix for me. Although I don't know for sure, puppies must be like grandchildren. You love to see them come to visit, and you love to see them go home too. Now we're fixing to rest up for Wrigley's visit. In fact, we're all dog tired.
