Sugar arrived at her new foster home in Bloomington, MN on Sunday, March 20th. She was whooped from the trip to MN from Chicago and was very content to be a lap dog on Sunday night. That gave the rest of the crew, the two Golden Retrievers and house cat, plenty of time to check her out and welcome her in.

She's doing really, really well. On Monday I bought her a gentle leader for walking and it only took about 1/4 of a block for her to forget it was there. She walks like a champ! She's so pretty when she's walking.... she's almost always pointing.....

Sugar has enjoyed checking out her new playmates and big play pen (fenced in back yard). Her favorite toys so far are the Kong and Nylabones. When she's not busy with another dog or a toy, she's usually curled up next to me with her head nuzzled in tight... or over on her own couch. Dogs and cats are not a problem with Sugar... she just wags and wags.....

She's a real sweetie...

Videos!

We are having a great time with Miss Sugarland! She has lost 5 lbs and gained a lot of energy. She was never a tentative or nervous girl, but lately she has much more energy than when she first came to us. I'm posting a few videos, one of her watching the sea gulls from the deck (showing off her new figure), and one of her and Tucker playing with a kidnapped sock. I love these videos because you wouldn't know from watching them that she has any handicaps - she really is a fearless girl.
