Quick Rewind - The Trip Down

Wow, I can't believe that Rudy's been gone for (almost) a whole month. I'll be looking forward to the "phone call" or "email" soon... giving me news on whether Rudy passed his medicals or not.

I'm doing a "quick rewind" and posting the pictures of the trip down the FL (for dropping Rudy off).
He was such a good boy, and slept most of the way - waking up sometimes, to find out what was going on.
When we picked up miss Cupcake (the mini piglet), Rudy was very calm - and didn't mind sharing the back with her (though she stayed in the crate). I know he was wishing he could have spent more time with her, they sure would have been great buds!
All in All, Rudy did wonderful - though the trip back (without him) was quite lonely.

Rudy is definitely missed here, but I wish him the best of luck with his training.

Just so hard letting them move on with their lives after they've been part of yours for so long.

I am anxiously waiting to see when you hear something from SEGD. Since Rudy went IFT 5 days before Joey, you may hear something a few days before we do. Keep posting!

Oh you must be missing him so much. Hopefully Cupcake is keeping you busy. Looking forward to learning of Rudy's progress.
