Kirby (ex-Woody) Uppity dates

[K9karen]

I had to start a new thread..the other is so long. This is a new start for Woody so I started a new thread to boot.

John and I expected the Woodster at 745p so on a whim, I checked the tracking at 6p and they said he was in Phila Thankfully I had food, water, blankies, leash ready, so John and I flew out of the house, no lights on, coats over arms and raced to the airport. We left without cameras, sorry, but relied on our new camera phones.

I want to thank Phred for all his hard work. I apologize...we did look at his wonderful directions, but our printer is broken, but My John read them and, thanks to a great memory, said he could find the "spot" Your directions were right on, Phred, and we are very appreciative.

AA employees were petting Woody through the bars (he was on his back). All smiles. John and I fed him a little and I walked him. He sat on my lap on the way home and fell asleep.

Sorry this is late..by the time we got home, played with him, took pictures (will be downloaded tonight or tomorrow..we are pooped) and spent time with the VERY annoyed Princess Klo..time has flown. John and I have had headaches all day..mine from excitement for sure, but are now OK, knowing Woody is fine.

Woody is officially up for RANSOM!!!!!! Sorry Jenn. Good luck getting the little nipper! Woody is asleep in John's caring arms while I type. He initiated my dining room rug when I wasn't looking and also the Big Bed, where I put him for a split second while I opened the door to his crate. (blankets etc now being washed). Woody would have NOTHING to do with his crate while we were up and about, so I took him back out for his 10th pee and now he's out like a light.

So please be patient for photos..just know the little pumpkin love is sweet, adorable, no worse for wear. His ears are amazing. I'm full of puppy teethie chomps..who cares? He is a living angel. I'm just glad I could do this. Puppy fever had biten me

I love you guys

You have no idea how happy this makes me, Karen Yes those little puppy chompers are quite something, arent' they? That's why Little Miss Quinn and Mister Woody were never allowed to play together

I'm sorry about your rug and VERY sorry about the bed, bad Woody hehe. He only peed 3 or 4 times in the house, don't remember, but it wasn't a lot. We have tile thoughout the house so it wasn't too much of a hassle, but he seemed to do his potties after he just came in from going out to potty hehe.

Yay Woody! Sleep well tonight, hun. I love and miss you, baby boy.

I'm so excited that Woody has finally made it to Philly!
He is such an adorable little pup and I can't wait to see the new pictures!

Give Little Woody some kisses from me!

I am so happy that Woody is safe at Karen's house now. Poor guy must be so pooped from his very hectic day! It sounds like he is adjusting well though. I so can't wait for pictures!!!

[shais_mom]

such a big day for a little guy!
glad to hear he's settling in fine!

[Giselle]

Aww, that post brightened my day! We'll be eagerly waiting for pictures of the little guy!

[Pam]

Just woke up and flew out of bed to see how everything turned out and if there were pictures. Karen, bless your heart. I know you had to be *dog tired* hehe! from the excitement and with a headache to boot. We will be patient.

Woody is officially up for RANSOM!!!!!!

HaHa! I just knew the minute you smelled his puppy breath it would be hard letting the little fella go! Oh those eyes! Oh those ears! Lotsa luck Jenn!

I love you guys

And we love you too my friend.

Big thanks to Phred, Leslie, Jenn, Karen and John for putting this all together. You guys are just the greatest!! (((hugs))) to Ms Klo. No, sweetie, he is not staying. You will have your throne back soon!

Karen, I will have to admit I was nervous for you making that trip to the airport and then having to make it on the fly couldn't have helped. I was also nervous for Woody, having heard some horror stories with animals flying and then our artic like weather didn't help my worries. Glad those worries were for naught and all is well.

Karen, I have a feeling this is a *test run* for you. Good you are getting a speed course of Puppy Rearing 101. Peeing on the Big Bed - oh, how well I remember that!!! Maybe Woody can throw in a few more Nawtee Dawg tricks before he leaves.

This is so exciting! It reminds me of how excited Dr. Goodnow (Kym) and I were when my foster cat Jupiter was transported to her, and that was just a long car ride!

Can't wait to see new pictures of little Woody! Great job to everyone who made this happen! PT people are the best!

Great pictures. He sure is a happy little guy and very cute too. Karen, I think you just might have to adopt a puppy after all of this is over.

I'm a sobbing mess here. I miss my baby boy so much. I knew I missed him, but I didn't break down until I saw his pictures. Please give him a hug and a kiss for me. Tell him that I love him and I'll never forget him.

Thank you SO much for the photos. It's nice to see that he's still his happy self and that the airplane trip didn't change him into a different dog.

Oh, and I'll have you know, when he was first picked up off the street he was slightly underweight and it didn't take long for him to plump up into a little butter ball He looks wonderful, you look wonderful, John looks wonderful, Princess Klo looks ticked off but hey, I don't blame her, he's a chewie machine!

I just returned home after being out with friends for dinner, and I came right into the computer - jumped on Pet Talk and went looking to see if there were any updates on Woody.

I think ALL of us are totally smitten with Woody. How could you not be?

I guess I am just jealous that Leslie, Karen, John and Jenn all have hands on petting and scritching that we can't enjoy.

He is one adorable pup and this is just another of our Pet Talk joyous stories.

Phred, great job on complimenting the customer service gal at AA. She deserves it. If anything had happened to this little guy there would have been hell to pay from all of us Pet Talkers!

[3muttsandaboston]

omg what a cutie. I just read his story and I am amazed. If I had that cute little guy in my arms there is no way anyone could pry him away. lol

(((HUGS))) for you, Leslie. This post makes the sad part of this process so evident. Even in doing what is best for everyone, the place Woody has won in your heart has been bruised and wounded. I feel that pain.

Karen, the pictures are wonderful. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Where is your SNOW!!! Geez, I'll have to send you some. And ha, ha, after 7 years, I even got to peek a bit into your house. It took Mr. Woody to do that. (I like the dining room furniture).

Oh, are you going to have a ball the next couple of days. I'm thinking even the Princess will decide that having a buddy is pretty cool, unless she turns out to be an Extreme Princess like one I could name. Then she will merely *accept* the adoration from her housemate. And you, my dear, I see the *second dog* written all over your face.

I came back to look at the pictures again and found myself singing:

Do your ears hang low do they wobble to and fro,
can you tie them in a knot can you tie them in a bow...
