A Sad Goodbye...

We had to let this sweet pup go on Saturday after a week with him. He truly was a dream dog inside and with the kids. I doubt we'll ever find a more mellow dog to live indoors. Outside was another story. He could not be in the back yard for 3 minutes without making a break for it. He got over the fence with no difficulty and we found ourselves chasing him down repeatedly. When he saw us coming, he would either lie down and refuse to come with us or bolt in the other direction. Huskies are notorious for this... He and Boudreaux were never going to be friends, either. I think we could have handled one problem or the other but the combination was overwhelming. Fortunately, there was another lady who took him home to a house with a 6 foot wall around the yard. She said he immediately looked for an escape route there, too. Hopefully he does not find one and things work out for him. There were a lot of tears when he left. He definitely made a mark on all of our hearts...
