Tuckered.

Lucy is tuckered out after a Kong-throwing session outside.

A tired dog is a good dog.

Peaceful

A peaceful evening with dogs scattered about the house, with Lucy sleeping on the couch.

Ears; couch

Lucy’s ears drape over in the most amusing, endearing way.

We are fine with sharing the couch with our dogs – as long as it’s understood that they must get off or stay off when directed.

Double decker dogs

Lucy likes hanging out on the back of the couch. Fitzi is content to take the lower bunk.

Wait

Fitzi and Lucy wait somewhat patiently for Faye to emerge from the kitchen.

Watches

Lucy watches me capture her.

I will take Wednesday off and return Thursday.

I think they like each other.

At home

Faye brought Lucy home today. Things have gone well – she and Fitzi played and pranced, and postured with sticks. Senior Achilles joined in; we were inclined to limit his exuberance because of recent back troubles which he is recovering well from.

Feeding time went well. Right now, each dog is resting or sleeping on a bed. At one point Lucy settled on the couch. Rather than fiddle with exposures and settings I went with the ambient light.

I think she is at home. We are blessed and pleased to have her.

Happy ending

Our foster dog Lucy went to her forever home this afternoon. While we are a little sad to let her go, we think it is the ideal home for her. In the very unlikely event it did not work out, we will unhesitatingly take her back. Possibly permanently.

We were blessed to have Lucy in our home, and wish her and her person a great life.
