A quick update on the pupster front. Zoe's rehab process has been labor intense, as you might imagine. She and Farley are in good spirits. We are all adjusting to changes in our lives and routines. Zoe is up to three ten minute leash walks a day and I'm helping her gently do stairs so she can keep me company in my home office. Last Friday she sat in the car and watched me trim sheep hoofs in the barn.
Farley is growing up. What a tank. He's working toward his Canine Good Citizen obedience title. I actually think he may not pass the test on Monday, but we're going to try anyway. The winter weather has made it really hard to get him out to practice his lessons (polite greeting strangers especially!). Maybe he'll pass. I will let you know how it goes.
Zoe (yesterday) works out with Liz, her physical therapist at Power Dog!
Farley and Zoe with their new little friends.
We're continuing to keep you all in our thoughts. Good to see Zoe recuperating. She and Farley are such pretty babies.
hang in there.

Good luck to Farley on Monday! What a challenge for all of you, dealing with Zoe's rehab, and trying to keep both puppies happy, but you're doing a great job. They seem quite enamoured of their new feathered friends!

The pups are beautiful! Zoe looks pretty happy -- she is so lucky to have all of you.

thanks for the update - I've been thinking about Zoe and hoped she was doing well.
Aww, is Farley still working on politely greeting visitors? I hope he passes his test :)
They are beautiful pups! What do the birds think of the dogs?? ;)

The birds enjoy watching the puppies (when they're not chattering away and playing with each other). It's funny how the two sets of creatures interact and observe each other.
We've never kept birds before, so this is a new experience for our home. They are delightful.

Glad all are settling in well. I had parakeets years ago, they are fun, but somehow even more work than the dogs!

What a sweet looking pair of puppies. Wonderful to hear that all are progressing well.

The pups look lovely! Good to hear that Zoe is doing well and Farley is keeping her good company. How did Farley do on his test?!
