Update on Blizzard

Blizzard was one of the puppies from South Carolina, Yeva is his mom.

Blizzard's new mom gave us an update and sent a photo of Blizzard enjoying one ofclick to enlarge his Christmas gifts. Here is the update:
Blizz is doing very well. He and Kodi, their first husky, still play nonstop - "it sounds like we have a herd of horses going up and down the stairs" Pattie says. She says they never knew Kodi had such a playful side - apparently she instigates most of the time - it took getting another dog to bring that out in her.

Blizz is a cuddle-monster who knows that Dad doesn't want him on the couch
but Mom will allow him to get away with his front legs up there. He also
hops up into bed with his mom the second his dad has gotten up. He is
eating well, getting big, chewing less (by my math, according to my vet's
age estimates, Yeva's pups are all turning 1 right around now). Still a
little shy with Vince but better all the time. Loves the snow. He and Kodi
do pull on walks; I've recommended the Easy Walk Harness and they plan to
buy a couple when they have some spare cash lying around.

Not sure anyone still here knew this, but Kodi was a stray husky who had
bad demodectic mange when she adopted Vince like a year or so ago. Pattie
says that Kodi just had her first zero mite count so one more of those and
she's done with treatment! This is wonderful news, but Blizzard was not
happy about having to stay in his crate alone while Kodi went to the
vet.... just howled after them as they left. Sounds like he really loves
his new family and his new home.

And they love him. Pattie said "They're my kids. They might have 4 legs not
2, but they're my kids."

Congratulations to Blizzard and his new family!
