“…and she dances on the sand.”
Or not.
I’ve never actually seen Rio on any sand, so I’m not sure if she dances there or not. But I digress…
So, there we were, lying around the house with nothing to do.
*YAWN* I’m bored.
BJ: “Yeah, but it’s a nice relaxing day.”
Cooper: “Relaxing, yes, but I suspect something’s
going to happen. Mom’s got that ‘visitors are
coming’ look about her.”
Peaches: “Visitors?”
Captain Jack: “Hurray for visitors!”
Sure enough, just a few minutes later, Aunt Julia showed up with her Greyhound boy, Dash, and her newly adopted Greyhound girl, Rio. We’d met Rio once before, at Julia’s birthday party, but she was only a foster dog at the time (although we all suspected Aunt Julia would adopt her). Now Rio had her forever home and had come for a visit with her extended pack.
The all-important butt-sniffing.
Followed by some ear-sniffing.
…sniff-a-sniff-a-sniff.
Dash rehydrates after the hot car ride.
“Ahhhh, that’s better.”
Julia in the back yard with tripod Peaches, followed by Dash and Rio.
Peaches: “Forget the toy! Just LOVE me!”
Peaches gets into the ear-sniffing…a bit late.
Rio gets love from her new mommy.
Ear scritches – better than ear sniffs!
Hey! I’ve got ears, too!
I did get some attention from Julia, and then we all went back inside where it was much cooler and relaxed for a while before Dash and Rio had to go home. It’s kinda sad that it was too hot for all of us to play together outside, but at least we got to visit, and to welcome Rio to the extended pack.
