Seven…

I realised that I hadn't updated this post since getting the news... Dexter heads off tomorrow to start his new life with the family that found him. I'll be taking him to the shelter for the adoption paperwork and handover at noon. I'm so pleased for him, without a hint of being sorry to see him go (for now). This is the absolute best thing for him. He's a sweet boy, and he deserves more than we can offer him here. Squidge is going to miss him the most, I think - she always pushes her way out when she knows we're going to see him, and she just loves playing with him. Her routine is going to be a little bit emptier come Sunday.
 
Yes, it all went smoothly. Dexter was a superstar, they took him for a little walk without us, and he went off happily. Jumped all over all three of them, no shits given. He didn't bite anyone - result!
They're clearly very keen to do the best by him. The Dad asked if we would be interested in meeting up with them, and bring Luna, at some point. Of course we said we'd be delighted!

So, yes, it's weird he's not here now, and I'm nervous that it all works out in the short term, puppy biting wise, but I'm really happy he's with them.
