    Five years ago today...

    Five years ago today, my little timid boys arrived:


    How they spent most of their puppyhood; trying to become one with their concrete kennel; Antare always in front, protecting his terrified brother, despite his own fears.


    They are still timid little guys, some things can't be fixed, but they have made great progress. That first day, it took hours to coax them out of my truck. This morning, Antare and I had a little debate about wether or not he was going outside! Antare is a fine little sled dog who will put up with just about anything if it means he can go for a run!


    Delta is still more timid than his brother, but he's made progress too. He's easier to catch and seems to enjoy a little attention sometimes. Every morning he greets with a playbow and a wooooooo. Somedays he continues our morning chat all day if I'm outside. Every time I look at his sweet face, I am grateful he came back.

    Happy, happy gotcha day boys. I'd sure love to hug you both, but I understand that you'd not be too happy about that. So glad you came home Delta! Have a wonderful day boys!

    Happy Gotcha Day, boys!!! Oooh, Antare, you are so extraordinarily handsome *swoon*. I am glad that both of you boys were able to find such a loving home, and are able to feel safe. Look at that happy smile on Delta's handsome face.

    Happy Gotcha Day, Antare and Delta! I would LOVE to dive through my monitor and give you both HUGE hugs - But you're not too keen on that. So I'll enjoy your photos instead! Maybe you'll let your mum give you a pat for me?

    Those are sweet looking boys, lots of worry in the eyes though. Very lucky boys also.

    Tamara, I remember that terrible long, long time that Delta was missing...I didn't realized he had been a timid puppy before that!

    How wonderful he is back...and they are both beautiful dogs.

    Sending a PT Prayer that they will let all your love soak in and lose the scared feeling!

    HUGS to those babies!
