    Living up to my kennel name...

    My kennel name is Wandering Spirits. This afternoon I brought home two more wandering souls. I meant to spend my lunch hour checking out the kayaking at a local lake, not far from my office. Instead, I picked up two husky crosses who were lounging on the side of the road...both males, both not neutered, wearing collars, but no id in sight. One is black and white and bi-eyed. The other is grey and white with brown eyes. The grey guy has a minor paw injury and is limping a bit. They are both just as sweet as sugar. They jumped right in my truck. The grey one sat in the front seat and pawed me every time I stopped touching him. The black one sat in the back and helped himself to a pig's ear Bandit didn't eat last time he came for a truck ride! They are currently residing in Pacer's pen. Pacer got moved to a different spot. They are very sweet and must be owned by someone. I hope they are anyway! I've called all the usual places to report such things--the shelter, animal control, the radio station, the vet clinics....Hopefully their owner will turn up.


    I had to come back to work for the afternoon so I'll get some pictures of them tonight.

    A simple profile change to read 25 dogs will only take a minute or two

    Seriously bless you for helping them and I can't wait to see pics.

    Oh those lucky boys. Little did they know when they headed out on their little adventure that they would end up at Camp Wandering Spirits. Hmm...or maybe that is where they were heading the whole time and just stopped for a rest. In any case I hope you find their home soon (although after spending some time at your place they may not want to go home). How long will you keep them if no one comes forward? Hope everything works out. Oh and give Pacer some big hugs for me when you get home for giving up his room to the visitors.

    I love the kennel name. I am glad it was you who found them. They
    couldn't be in better hands. I will check back for pictures later on.

    I'd consider listing them as fosters with the Humane Society, but they can stay if no one claims them. They'll be getting their little butts neutered in a hurry if they stay though!

    LOL, Pacer hates that pen. He hates being in a pen period! He's only in there when no one is home to supervise his interactions with the big pack. He's been beaten up a couple times and neither of us feels like going through that again! Pacer is in a smaller pen right now. I'm sure he'll hate it just as much as the bigger pen and as much as he hates being in Sundin's pen or Goldie's pen or....any pen!

    Well, I'll have to call them something if they stay more than a day or two! HEY YOU, just doesn't work for long! I bulk order tags with no names on them, just contact info and reward for return in big letters! No need to get special tags!

    I left a message on Stuart's voice mail, just so he doesn't freak out if he beats me home tonight!

    This seems to be a WELL-rehearsed drill ...

    * Find em

    * Bring em home

    * Move em IN and make em Comfortable

    * Tag em

    * Leave a Note for Stuart ...

    * then <sneak> back to work an Lay Low for a couple hours!



    LOVE IT!!

    **Welcome HOME, New Kids!!
