Best believe I slept really well after 10PM when I put Cookie in her crate for the night after a long day of play (though she cried a lot that first night, she really did not want to sleep in her crate). |
Same here! There was very little sleep in this household the night before Penny's arrival and it was love at first sight seeing her in her crate.

Imagine how hard that window is to find in Texas in the middle of June! We lucked out and got a cold front come in July 3rd and Deb got Cook on a plane about 6:00AM so she could get to the San Antonio airport before the temperature got into the mid 80s. I think Deb lived two or three hours from the KC airport at the time (this was before she moved to Oregon). I remember the day we found out there would be cooperative weather I told her I was tempted to just go camp out at the airport to wait for my yorkie! haha |
I remember Deb was in the process of moving. Our original plan was to take a road trip to Oregon to pick up Penny. Deb graciously offered us her place for an overnight stay before we were to headed off the following morning to visit friends/trainers at a service dog training facility nearby, but the weather heated up so Deb's move was delayed. We too had to wait a couple of weeks for the weather to cool down so Penny can be safely transported.
