Valerie, Are you settled yet?

[Teresa]

I was wondering if you had gotten moved into your house and if Cookie liked her yard. I know it can take awhile to get internet hooked up and have a feeling that may be why we haven't heard from you. Also, it does take a while to find your way out of all those boxes!! Hope to see you back here soon.

Valerie is incommunicado also.  Man, the Dachshund Witness Protection program is getting crowded!

LOL gads Karen, you do crack me up!! 

I hope we hear from Valerie and Cookie soon too!

Hi Everyone!!! Thanks so much for checking in!!! :)
Between a new house and new job, I hardly have time for anything anymore.  But we are hooked up to the internet now and getting settled.  We still have those last few boxes to unpack (you know, the ones that you have no idea where to put the stuff).

Cookie LOVES this new house!  And yard.  She has so much more room indoors and outdoors.  The only thing different is she does not like going for walks anymore.  She wants to turn around and get back home as soon as possible.  I don't know- maybe she is nervous about us moving again?   She also has had quite a time learning how to maneauver around on harwood floors.  We keep blankets in every room to give her something soft to sit on- no she is not spoiled!

I have a couple of pictures of her in her yard!  oops, I mean my yard...

another picture...

the last one I caught her snuggling with her squirrel and taking a nap after a rough afternoon of digging and sniffing.

Great pictures !!!!!  Glad you are settling in and Cookie loves her yard !!!  She just may be hesitant now about walking - and afraid you are going to go somewhere else.  Just take it slowly - she will get used to her new surroundings !!!

That's a great yard, Valerie! Cookie looks happy out there. She is so pretty being pretty much all black and I love the grays. I'm sure she'll settle in fast and I think you had it right the first time..."her" yard LOL
