Snow Day (and where the heck have we been)

I've come to realize that it's been an extraordinarily long time since we've checked in here, and time to start writing a lot more regularly. We've definitely been learning and growing lots in the 6 months since Balton has come to our lives and hearts. He's the longest standing foster by a mile here at our house, and he's still looking for a home. He's still learning about the good things in life, and we're still learning how to help him along in his training, and how to show the rest of the world the amazingly sweet, loving, and loyal dog we get to see when he is unafraid and able to trust. And I am happy to say that while no changes happen immediately, we have learned to find joy in all of Balton's successes, great and small.

Today, Balton found some joy of his own in his first real snowfall. I've never seen someone love the cold, white, and wet quite as much as this guy. So, if you're looking for someone to take on the arctic tundra with you...he's your guy. 

It's not always easy, but Balton has been learning in this last half a year he's been with us, to trust in us enough that he can trust the people in the world around him. 30 minutes at a Petsmart parking lot, an hour at an adoption event, and since my job has changed so I am no longer working from home, making the acquaintance of the dog walker. 

Our journey, and our search for the forever home that can celebrate all the same successes that we have with a lifetime of love, continues. So keep checking back for more updates on our friend Beebop, and share his bio RIGHT HERE and all his fun updates from Social Media land RIGHT HERE.

Thanks to everyone who, though not in this space, has continued following Balton's progress and rooting for him and every baby step and big stride he takes. Our Lucky Dog family has been an incredible support, and we wouldn't be where we are today without you. 

With love and puppy kisses, and deeper thoughts to come, our search for happy ever after happily continues.

-Lynn and Balton
