This past week found us puppy-sitting for a friend, Patti. Patti had acquired a puppy from a shelter in Iowa, and, through a network of dog transporters, Mr. Biggs had arived in Glenwood Springs earlier in the week. The timing was a bit inconvenient, as Patti’s daughter was graduating from college and Patti needed to be out of town for several days. “We” volunteered to puppy-sit Mr. Biggs while Patti was on the road.

Our dogs, Blondie and Bru, enjoyed the opportunity to play with a new dog. Bru, in particular, hit it off well with Mr. Biggs.

We had Mr. Biggs for a couple of days, then reunited him with Patti this past Saturday.

It is worth noting that Bru and Mr. Biggs were both rescued by the same group, Way Home Rescue, in Bellevue, Iowa. Tabitha and Casey do a wonderful job rescuing animals. Mr. Biggs is one of 17 dogs they had up for adoption this spring!
We enjoyed Mr. Biggs’ visit, and Blondie and Bru had a good time as well. We hope for all the best for Patti and her new dog.
I personally have a soft spot for the black pup with white on his/her chest (as well as the mama). I honestly go back and forth about a puppy, but then say NO because I will be out of town a total of 3-4 weeks this summer!
Mr. Biggs looks pretty mellow, along with sweet, BIG, and very well socialized.
Maybe I should look into fostering dogs? hhmm…
