Our Foster is here!
« on: August 15, 2006, 02:11:32 am »
 ;D  ;D  ;D  ;D  ;D

We're fostering a newf from the midwest - Onyx.  Picked her up from transport on Sunday in Dunkirk and drove home to the Albany area - what a loooong driving day that was!!!
Onyx is a sweetie!  Very social, needs some work on her leash training, very inquisitive, too!  Smudge (the 'mini-newf') and Moose have been fine with Onyx - as I knew they would be.  Hubby was more worried than I was on that score.
Due to a few accidents (and neither party knowing "the signal") we're crating her when we're not home or sleeping...oh, she seems to be a countersurfer, also.  I checked w/hubby and he's going to up her portion of kibble, so that could help.

She is especially enamoured with the 'special newfie bowl' in the front yard - namely the half-barrel pond we've got... that was her first stop when coming into the yard Sunday.  Yesterday she tried to go swimming in it!  TOOOO funny.  Will try to get some pics.  Although that could be a difficult task when the papparazzi is rolling on the ground in laughter.

Here's the link to her photobucket album:
