So A Dog Walks into a Coffee Shop…

No, not really. But the cast of this story is named after a famous TV show. Remember FRIENDS?  Follow me. You’ll see the connection soon.

Let’s start with Skylar, a sweet & goofy girl who loves to be loved. Looking for a snuggler? This is  your girl!
Skylar gave birth to 3 sons about 8 weeks ago. 

Meet Chandler, Joey, and Ross. Yep, there’s your FRIENDS connection.

Skylar’s a wonderful mom. She’s still letting them nurse a little even though they’re long past that point. A lot of moms tend to growl when pups this old try to nurse. After all they have sharp little teeth! Not Sky. She lets them nurse as long as they want. And then she plays with them. She’s very patient, even when they climb on her and nip at her.

Like any good mom, she sometimes has to play referee. Yes, Chandler, chewing on Ross’ leg is a personal foul.  Time out for you mister.

Chewing the human’s shoe is frowned upon in this establishment, Joey!

She makes sure the boys get their naps in.

Chandler’s a lot like his mom. He plays hard, sleeps soundly, and loves hugely.

Alright, how many can I put you down for? If you’re ready to add to your family, these little boys will be ready to be adopted later this week through the Asheville Humane Society. It’ll be another week or so before sweet Skylar is ready. She needs time to recover from all of her mom duties.

Shoot me an email if you adopt of the crew. Husband Brett and I love to hear how our former fosters are doing.
