Introducing Sir Cash

At the beginning of January, our visitors were few. Without many visitors, Lady May really doesn’t get her much-needed exercise. She prefers to just rest most of the day.  It was time to give her a chance to stretch her legs and really GO! We made a last minute decision to load up her wheelcart and head to the canal.

That was the day we met up with Cash. A sweet 8 yr. old, neutered male who has some similar features to our past, benevolent pack leader King.  I must admit my heart kind'a skipped a beat when we saw him wandering around the entrance to the canal without a people.
The long and short of it is, he had become 'disconnected' from his mom and she had been searching for him for a very long time. Thanks to his wearing an ID tag we were able to reunite them. It also gave us an opportunity to discuss more about this boy, J. Cash. We learned he would soon be needing a safe haven while his mom had to be away. I passed along my daycare business card and Cash came for a M&G.
Just like that, we have a newcomer to Royal K9 Korner
Welcome Mr. J. Cash

 

 

During his Meet 'n Greet Mr. Cash was quite subdued. He calmly re-met Lady May and continued to just stroll through the yard and house checking things out. Indoors he found a mat close by his mom to rest while we went over the paper work. 
I learned that Cash may not be comfortable meeting too many dogs at once and made the decision to have Cash come for a previsit when only one dog was here at a time. Miss Hazel has become one of our weekly visitors, so we arranged for a day according to her visits.

That previsit was yesterday.  I was all set to have a slow easy day to introduce Cash to daycare.
When Cash arrived, it was like meeting an entirely new dog. His demeanour was almost an opposite to the 'lost dog' I had met a month earlier and at our M&G.

He came barrelling through our front gate with tail wagging and tongue lolling! He was a happy fun loving boy ready for action! His mom stayed for a few minutes to see how the meeting with Hazel went.  It was BFF right from the get go! I was thrilled!

A short while later lil Suzy Q arrived. Again there was no issues at all. He treated her with respect and after a pleasant, hello, nice to meet you, Suzy chose to head indoors to rest. 

lil Molly's dad happened to stop by while we were playing in the yard. I decided to invite her to spend the day with us getting to know Cash. I'm so glad I did. It has set the pace for next weeks day care with Cash. I had been a little apprehensive to have any other dogs visit. I wanted to make sure Cash did not get overwhelmed by a yard full of strange dogs.
lil Molly's health has been a bit off lately and her temperament hasn't been normal.
I'm happy to say she's back on track and has accepted Cash.

 

I no longer have a concern and we will now be open for all visitors! Yay. 

What a good boy Cash! 

lil Molly - "Okay, listen this is how its gonna be..."

Cash - "ya ya ya okay whatever"

lil Molly saying hello. Both dogs still wearing their safety halters.
They both came off very soon after.

Put the camera down lady! Let's play BALL!

We are so happy we made the decision to visit the canal on that in early January. I wont even begin to imagine any other possible scenario.   
We happily welcome Cash into our Royal regime.
He'll be visiting us for just over a week in a few days. Bring on the new friendships!

I will be creating a Facebook album for Cash here.
Be sure to watch for his videos and more photos soon!
