KIRA'S TEMPORARY HOME

Morgan and I drove 2,000 miles to take Kira to her new temporarily home. I have been dreading this moment for months. But I'm sooo glad we were able to take her down there and see the wonderful place she'll spend the next 12 months.

As I shared in earlier posts, Kira is staying with her breeder Patricia. She will be with her biological mom (Keeda), sister (Sage), and sometimes her brother (Soloman) too. She'll also be living with 15-week old (Quest), two other dogs of whom I didn't not meet, and Keeda's 4 week old litter-11 pups.

She's on a 3 acre property that homes horses, chicken, turkeys, chicks, cats, dogs and a bird.

I didn't get pictures of all the animals... Somehow my camera lens kept capturing pictures of Kira...







Kira also has Patricia's four children and husband to hang with too.

So while I'm sad she's not hanging with us today, I'm POSITIVE she's in the best home. She has her pack of dogs, a cat that will remind her of Omar, some kids to give her a Myles-fix, other animals to keep her busy, and a human mom that will love her to pieces.

A world of thanks to Patricia.

KIRA goes on the road

Tomorrow Morgan and I take Kira to LA to stay with her second family the Newells. Patricia (Kira's Breeder) has welcomed Kira back to her home for the year while we're gone. This leaves me with an array of emotions.

I'm glad she'll be with Patricia. I know she'll be safe, she'll have fun with the other dogs, and she'll be well cared for. I'm worried she'll be sad and miss me and my family. I'm nervous she might get hurt.

But most of all, I'm sad. I'm sad that I won't have my Kira girl following me around the house. I won't have my Kira girl to walk with around our neigborhood. I won't have Kira girl to accompanly Myles and me to the park. I won't have Kira girl constantly begging to get up on the couch. I won't smell Kira girl's AWFUL gas. I won't be able to look into those beautiful eyes. And I won't have Kira girl to cuddle with.

We chose this path for the next year, so I have to keep my head up and know that she'll be okay, and I'll be okay. But I will be very sad for the next few days.
