After Ani and Wyoming, returning to regular life was hard on Halina. So that’s why we ended up going to an event to walk shelter dogs at a park 45 minutes away. And that’s probably why we ended up coming home with Alex for a 3-day foster sleepover. He stayed for 9 days until he had to return to the shelter for a vet check and potential adoption. During his time with us he tried to play with a very defensive Cinnamon, had a few accidents on the dining room floor, ate a Birkenstock sandal, school artwork, and a stuffy, humped the couch cushions until we had to put them out of reach, and snapped his big jaws open and shut like a gator while playing and leashing up. He also liked to cuddle and he slept on Halina’s bed for hours during her first day of back-to-school zoom calls. All in all, he kept us so exhausted and entertained that the transition to school hardly registered. Which is to say, he really helped.
