Kaiju Rampage Continues

Cardiff recharging

Cardiff recharging

Fun side note, Kaiju was actually one of the names on the list for my new dog, but I quickly dismissed it as tempting fate.

Here’s what she turns into when fully topped off

Don’t let my sarcasm paint her in a negative light, she’s doing great and seems to be having fun in the process. She’s super sweet and very smart. It’s definitely challenging keeping up and challenging her to be interested and not just chew something out of boredom. I’ve relied heavily on family to help me manage her and allow me time to do simple stuff like go to the store since Cardiff can’t be in a crate for very long at this point.

In other news, my trip to Texas to pick up my travel trailer is being reshuffled. With Cardiff unable to even interact with many other dogs or be on the ground safely due to the risk of Parvo before she’s fully vaccinated, I’ve had to re-think the trip. I was very much looking forward to driving out, and even more so driving back with Princess A, dragging the trailer behind. The reality is the trip would be difficult at best given Cardiff would need to be carried everywhere and none of us would be having the best trip we could.

My dad to the rescue, he’s going to drive my truck out and retrieve the trailer for me. I had alternate schemes for possibly getting other people to do the trip or dog-sit while I did it. His solution is the best all around, and will even give him some time to visit family while out in Texas. But it’s still a huge relief for me to have it solved.

Thanks again, Dad, you’re the best!
