Tink's first sleep over



Tinker stayed over at Matt, Amanda, and Plato's this past wednesday through saturday while Nick and I went to Ocean City MD for the regional Music Therapy Conference. While I knew she would be fine, i was still nervous. But i took confidence in the fact that not only did she know Matt and Amanda, that she showed excitement when we visited with them and she knew their house.
We traveled over to their house with snuggle ball, little bed, duffle bag of blankets,leash, food, snacks, kong, liver treats, peanutbutter, etc... We put all her things in place and quietly left as Amanda took Tink and Plato outside to play.
NOTHING BUT GREAT REPORTS THE WHOLE TIME WE WERE GONE! Matt & Amanda were great and called us and we called them and they shared funny stories of how she was doing and how she had settled in. She transitioned in very well and even nested on Plato's pile of toys : ) When company came over, she settled in on someone's lap for the entire evening : ) She walked through the city, spent lots of time outside exploring and basically had a great doggie vacation.

Surprisingly enough, i didn't miss her as much as I thought i would while we were gone. However, it all hit when i quietly walked back into the house and she raised her little head sniffing to find out who was there.... boy was she a happy little girl : ) And i was a very happy girl too : )

Last night she slept in bed with us and she stayed snuggled in my arms the entire night, her head up against my shoulders, her back against my belly....we were both in heaven ; )

Thank you sooooo much Matt & Amanda & of course Plato for opening your home and taking the time to take care of our precious little one.

Nothing phases this little girl. She is absolutely perfect for me and Nick.

Such good times! She will be missed, but I'm so happy she's home with mom and dad! She was quite the good girl too!
