The calm AFTER the storm

He didn't WALK into our house he RAN!   Things including cats went flying in all kinds of directions and I said "Oh my god what have I done".  In came Koda (formerly Wizzie) a 11 months old large, muscular and ALL puppy pit bull.  My dogs about had a heart attack seeing this FAST large boy zoom in like he owned the place. 

The first night was a little chaotic to say the least.  I got NOTHING accomplished but introductions and seperating spats...He was the energizer bunny and didn't stop exploring for a second until 1:30 that morning. 

He was a puppy and has no skills so thats what happens when you combine the two.  He even figured out how to jump on the kitchen counter!   Bubba would have been proud of Koda!!!!

He spent the entire evening sniffing every cat butt, dog butt, and tried playing with everyone!   Some of my dogs were not appreciative and had to show him where his place was and there was a lot of barking BUT then last night at 9:30 he CRASHED!   He hit the bed so hard that he didn't move an inch at all last night. 

You see there is so much for stimulation and playing around the "Island of Misfits" that when new foster dogs come (Ive had 4 in the past 4 months) that it intrigues new dogs til they almost explode.  Then when they get to the fenced in 1 acred back yard they run and run and run until they can't run anymore!  It really is a dogs heaven!  During the day they get their individual crate time to calm down and gear up for a fun night:)

So after the first night of complete exploration and running and playing the 2nd night becomes Mom sharig her pillow with a pit bull who can't play or explore a single ounce longer! 

This is what we call the sweet "Island of Misfits" and life is good...
