Spunky Monkey Comes
Home to Live With Us

Spunky
rests in Dale's lap.
Spunky, is a one year old Bichon, who was
abandoned by his owner, with a neighbor for three months, because he was getting
married, and the new wife, didn't like for dogs.:(
Spunky was taken to a kill shelter, where one of our rescue
friends intervined. We tried placing him with a wonderful family, who has 2
other Bichons. I guess he really bonded with us, during the week he was fostered
here. He cried at this new home. He marked everything in site, at every chance,
which is something he did not do when he was here. His new Mom, Joy, loved him
so very much, that she wanted him to be happy, and felt he was pining away for
us. She drove over 7 hours, to deliver him back to Dale and I. We both met in
Little Rock, Arkansas. Here are the pictures of his reunion with us. I guess
little Spunky Monkey is destined to be ours.:)

Spunky sticks next to Dale, who holds our boy, Chipper, on his lap. (No
you are not seeing things..Chipper is VERY tall.:)

Dale holds Spunky, while Casey, a Bichon Havanese puppy,
(being puppysat this weekend by Joy), looks on.

Spunky relaxes beside his new big bro, The Chip Meister. Joy's
baby, Alex, looks on.

Spunky in his favorite place,
again.:)

My new dear friend, Joy, holds
one of her Bichons, Sidney. I want to thank Joy, and her husband, for trying so
hard with Spunky, and for driving so far, to bring him back home. She also
transported Daisy and Daffodil, to Memphis, to meet THEIR new Moma! What a
trooper!
Spunky loved it when
we got to our house. It was like he had never even
left.:)

Spunky kills the white teddy
bear.

Spunky moves on, to the stuffed gingerbread man. Look
out..he is on a roll...

Spunky has now been here almost three weeks..I think
he likes it.:)
