A New Member In Our Family...

Today's the big day where we welcome Tinkerbelle into our family... We got up early in the morning, all so excited...  Arrived Marie's house at 11am and brought Tinker home.... Michelle, Tinker's saviour, arrived at our place shortly to see if everything is alright with Tinker....
bed, toys, blankets, food, treats, multi-vitamins and even royal jelly shampoo for tinker... oh yes, we also got her the tiny green toothbrush to chew....  :)
setting up her "room" aka space prior to her arrival... by the way, her fuzzyard reversible bed is really comfy... look at amanda lying on it... hahaha....
the big day... getting everything ready to fetch tinkerbelle.... we brought a thank you gift for marie and a similar large carrot for butter.... :)  they're foster sisters afterall...
farewell photos with tinker's foster mum and sister of 16 days.... at this point, i was still feeling very fearful... scared that i wasn't able to handle tinker.... things were moving really fast and before i knew it, tinker was with us at home...
getting her into the car and on the way home... i was driving really slowly... didn't want to frighten her...
arrival at tinker's new house...
walking into her new home...
and to her new space.... she was excited to see michelle a while later... can you see michelle's hand waving a treat to her?
amanda was on cloud 9.... in a state of daze... boy was i worried if this was the right timing to bring tinker home as her sa2 was just round the corner...
that ends day 1 of tinker in her new home.... good night and sweet dreams, tinkerbelle...

Doggie Training Session for Us...

Today, Marie will be teaching Amanda how to take care of Tinker e.g. bathe her, walk her, clean her ears, trim her nails etc...  

Amanda had GEP screening this morning and had to stay back in school the afternoon for her Public Speaking training... So right after her school at 4pm, I fetched her straight to Marie's place... She snacked and changed in the car...
cleaning tinker after shower....
walking tinker on leash...

The entire session lasted till 9pm and by the time we reached home for late dinner, it was almost 9.30pm.... Amanda was extremely happy but totally shag.
