Alexander and Hercules

Today we started a new adventure as foster parents to not one, but two husky mix puppies. They are currently 5 months old and came from a shelter in Kentucky. They got to our house early this evening and have been settling in quite well.

Meet Alexander:
Alexander has two blue eyes and is the bigger of the two boys. He is the rowdier one, but is not unruly. He has a sensitive side too and really loves some snuggles. He is trying really hard to be a good lap dog, however as he grows up he is going to get too big to fit in your lap, but for now it works. He loves to run and play. He has a really nice soft puppy coat. He took a bath tonight like a champ and we are already working on potty training. He rode to our house from northern IL like a pro as well.

Meet Hercules:
Hercules has one brown eye and one blue one. He is the smaller of the two boys. He has made himself right at home here. And has even claimed a spot on one of our couches. He is more skittish and is very wary of things right now. But even in the few hours he has been here, you can see he is coming out of his shell. (and I think he is trying to work his way in as a permanent member of our family...) He tolerated his bath ok, but wasn't as impressed as Alexander.  He is also working on his potty routine and rode home just as well as his brother.

So far, life as a foster mom has been pretty good. Bailey (the resident Husky in this house) likes them and wants to play with them. They aren't quite sure what to do with Bailey yet, but I'm sure it won't take long for them to figure it out.

The boys are getting spoiled already.
