<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>The girls left about an hour ago, Sophie in the
front seat, and Nancy in her crate. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Linda got to the house about 9pm last evening and
we sat up to almost 2am talking and loving on the girls. Anyone who knows
me knows that Holly and I are usually in the bedroom by 10, so kept getting
dirty looks from Holly b/c she was losing her beauty sleep :) Sophie
just curled up on some pillows in the living room around midnight and went to
sleep.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>I had to run out this morning to pick something up
and needed to let the girls out before I left. I had to wake all 3 of them
up. I didn't want them waking Linda up since she had a 1400 mile drive to
make. I was gone about 30 minutes and when I walked back in the door Holly
was there to greet me, and Sophie was asleep on the couch. She apparently
didn't hear me put my key in the door :) They were barricaded in the
kitchen when I left, but have found that there is nothing that keeps them in the
kitchen when they want out.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>While we were having our coffee Linda got Nancy out
of her crate. She was scared at first, but after about 10 minutes she
stopped shaking, and actually wagged her tail a few times. We walked the 3
of them around the yard just to get them used to walking on
leashes.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>After breakfast Linda started packing the car up
while I held onto Sophie & Holly. We walked all around the front lawn
and they were having a good time. Once the car was packed up Linda put
Sophie in the front seat and I came in to get Nancy. She walked right out
the front door and over to the car. Linda picked her up and put her in the
crate, turning it so Nancy could see Linda and Sophie, and look out the front
window.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Linda took Holly for a walk so I could say my good
byes to Sophie & Nancy. That was one of the hardest things I've ever
done. I was a basket case yesterday, so you can only imagine how this
went. Sophie looked back at me all the way to the end of the street.

<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Holly is now sitting and looking at the front door,
the same thing she did when Isabella left :( I will be
spending a lot of time on the floor with Holly today, and she will be
fine.....just like I will.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Linda will be just fine with both of the girls and
has promised to call me a couple of times a day. I'm just so happy that
they are on the way to Dawn and will hopefully get their forever homes
soon.</FONT></DIV>
