Helper Arrives in Texas!


This was the big day!  One of the other Puppy Raisers (Virginia-also my mentor in the CCI program) took me to DFW Airport to get Helper.  We arrived at the freight terminal at 9:00AM and waited for one of the employees to bring out the crate.  All of a sudden you could hear puppies barking and then out came two dog kennels.  As it turned out one of Helper's litter mates was also flown to DFW to meet her Puppy Raiser.  I took my crate outside to let Helper get out to toilet.  As you can imagine there was not much grass to be found at the airport so I immediately plopped down on the first piece of grass that I saw.  After thought...how many other animals have used this same piece of grass that I was sitting on to do their business before or after a long flight???  Bad choice of a place for me to sit down...ugh!!!  This picture was taking by Virginia as I first took Helper out of the kennel...she calls it "Which End Is Up?".  As you can see when I grabbed her from the mid section to remove her from the crate I was caught off guard by the fact that her front end was so much heavier than the back!  So basically she did a nose dive into my lap!   The ride home was wonderful...as Virginia drove I cuddled with my sweet 8 week old puppy.
