Lonely

Yesterday I adopted out the female pup, Sweetheart, to a nice young guy from Memphis. I'm so excited to have found a home for one of the pups but Dexter (the male puppy) is so SAD. He is so lonesome it's just hard to watch. Last night I put him in the laundry room in his usual spot around 9pm and he cried. Then he woke me up at 1:30am crying and barking. I checked on him and he was fine just lonely. Then he woke up at 5am and barked and cried till hubs got up at 7am. Poor guy - he misses his sisters. My two big dogs don't mind him but they won't wrestle and play w/him like the other pups did. He was out on the deck bigger part of the morning and he's been moping around. I am however proud that when I let him in the house this afternoon he went back to his spot in the laundry room and tinkled on the paper instead of just using the floor. I brought down a big stuffed Tigger from the boys toybox and he has snuggled up to it for a long nap this afternoon. Maybe Tigger will help comfort him tonight so I don't have to wake up to all that howling again! Please spead the word that Dex needs a home soon! He needs a buddy big time!
