A Winks and a Prayer

Hello all
We have a Winks here with us and I just wanted to let you all know that he arrived safely...
This is what we know...
He rides great in the car, just sat in the back for a few then fell right to sleep...dream boy.
When Winks and I got to my house I left him in the car while I talked to my neighbors Kara, who is 9 and her Dad, Bill.  They agreed to help me with the introductions to Molz and Jake.
Winks played a little shy...30 seconds...then warmed up to Bill and Kara; they then walked Winks up the street.  I went and got Molz and Jake and we started walking up the road toward them....Winks appeared very interested and Molz and Jake were as calm as you can except when about to meet a new dog....All went great!
Kara, Molz, Jake, Winks and myself proceeded on a 45 min walk around the hood....Good way for all to get to know each other, and a good idea after two days in cars!
Winks pulls somewhat on the leash, but nothing a few tugs on his leash doesn't correct for a few minutes, he will do wonderful with a puppy class and lots of walk...he'll get it!
After the walk we explored the back yard with all the dogs.  I walked the fence line and put a few cinder blocks in some places a dog this short might sneak through!  
Next into the house, I brought Jake in first and wiped those big furry feet, next Winks and he did very well with that,  followed by Molz....she is so polite about waiting to come in don't ya know.  
Jake went to his crate and was not too interested in Winks smelling his very own den.  Winks took the hint and proceeded to check out the house.  He and Molz started a little playing around the living room.  Then Jake came out and all continued very well.
Molz and Jake went outside to lay around the backyard, Winks really preferred to stay in with me.  Sniffing here and there, then having a drink.   Cat Man and Gema watched all of this from the stairs, it's a spiral staircase so it is open with great views.  Cat then came down and met our new friend, it was very calm and uneventful...so yes Winks is good with Cats!
As I type this to all of you Winks is laying in his new crate with door open and very content!  
Winks is cream and butterscotch blend...such beautiful colors, his coat is very very soft, his eyes are a very warm brown and he's about 14" at his shoulder.  He was somewhat freaked by the sound of the type so this is an estimate.  He is so very sweet and laid-back for a guy this young. 
Here are some shots we have taken today....
Just hangin on the sofa....
Got to love this face!
See the butterscotch....
A Winks and a Cat Man!

What a great guy...so forever family if you are out there this is one very cool little dude.
A big Fluffy Dog THANK YOU  to all the helped with the transport...we are all very grateful!

  1. Yay for Winks and the new family. It sure has been quiet here in northwest GA without him. He kept the playing going and the pot stirred. It won't be long before another foster takes his place. We'll miss him but know he's in a better place to start the rest of his life. He is a great dog and I'm so very glad he fits in so nicely. Thank you for taking him on for the next phase of his life. - Love & kisses from his GA foster mom
