So in lieu of a blog post, I’ll share these recent shots of Jane and Nanny having fun in the park.
New nicknames
Additions to our original nickname list:
- Nannybutts
- Nannycakes
- Apoopah
- Tubbos
- Snorty McSnortleton
- Pack
- Pitball (when she curls up into a compact ball)
- Nanny Rockets (when she tears out across the park at breakneck speed for the sheer joy of it)
- Waggy-wags (which is what she does in response to my silliest baby-talk voice, “Wanna go for a walky-walks?!”)
- Spastic dog (when she just can’t contain her excitement and twirls around and around in a manic dervish whirl)
- and most recently, Nanny the Excavator, because spring smells SO GOOD, why should we keep it buried?
And! For your enjoyment, a new pic:
More photos can be found on Nanny’s own Flickr set.
Nanny got the memo.
She barks.
She cries.
She growls.
She plays.
She fetches.
She gives kisses.
She’s the star of the dog park.
She chews bones and rope toys.
She loves tennis balls.
She runs and runs and runs and runs. In fact, it’s her most favorite activity. Ever.
She plays tug.
She loves mud.
She’s still wary of people, but if they have food (especially peanut butter), they’re ok.
She makes us laugh all the time.
She’s a total love-bug who will not turn down a chance to snuggle with her moms.
She’s come a long way.

Urgent request from PAWS
From Kelly Parker of PAWS New England:
Hello Everyone-
We have an emergency foster need for these two dogs who need to stay together. They are extremely well behaved and they get along well with other dogs and children:
http://www.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=11642802
http://www.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=11756768Due to the urgency of the situation, we are also looking into paid boarding possibilities. If you have a pet sitter who does sitting out of their home and may be willing to take care of these guys until we find them a forever home- please pass along their information.
Many thanks- hope everyone had a wonderful holiday!
