I have known poky since he was born (he was bread by her uncle who is a terrible terrible man) we have been friends as long as he has been alive.
Poky loves me but im not his mom the choice was between me or her mom (who would have to come home from a huge trip) really it was not a choice her mom would not care for him like i would. so he knows me and has stayed with me for up to a week before she came home i don't know how will react
i was a little relieved to it took Nikki 6 months to warm up so maybe in time poky will settle down. but then i have to worry about when she comes home on leave and starting all over again
do you think once he is settled he will be settled forever or will i have to start over everytime he sees his mom |
I take Nikki every 2 weeks to the nursing home to see his previous owner. The first couple of times he wouldn't eat for a day or so and acted depressed. Now he loves to see Carol, but is happy to be back home with my girls and eats as soon as we get home. So at first he may be a little confused or sad but truly, Nikki has settled in like he lived here his whole life. You are doing a wonderful thing for your friend and she for our country.
