You may have noticed that we’ve been a bit MIA recently, a bit less active on social media. Well, there’s a really good reason for that. We have a new addition to our pack. I know what you’re thinking, but nope, it’s not another rescue dog. It’s not a cat, or a bunny or a furry critter of any kind. His name is Parker Henry and he’s a tiny human. 🙂 He was born on March 23rd and he is 10 days old today!
We’ll keep this post short and sweet, mostly because the tiny human keeps Mom and Dad pretty busy. He’s sleeping at the moment, so Mom thought she’d write a quick post to officially welcome him to the Life With Mutts Pack and introduce him to all of our friends.
All of us pups are very intrigued by him and love him already. Well, Roxie is a bit skeptical when he cries and keeps her distance, but when he naps she likes to curl up right next to him and Mom on the couch.
From the moment Mom brought Parker home, we were all super gentle and curious. We took turns calmly giving him little sniffs and sneaking him tiny kisses. Mom isn’t a huge fan of us kissing him all over quite yet, so we have to be stealthy about it, and mostly kiss his cute little ears. Helo is Parker’s protector already and comes to the rescue whenever he starts to cry. He even follows Mom around the house while she’s carrying and soothing him.
We think Parker is pretty cool, but we can’t wait until he can do more than eat, cry, and sleep. And poop. We want to show him all of our favorite places to hike and play. Mom says it will be a couple of months, but she even got a special carrier so he can come on hikes with us. For now, we enjoy neighborhood walks with Parker in the stroller and lots of backyard playtime when he’s napping. Stay tuned for lots of adventures and a branding/name change coming soon to include our new little brother on our grand adventures! He’s gonna be the best little explorer, especially with big siblings like us!
Hope everyone has been having a great week!
Thanks for reading,
Debbie & THE MUTTS (and Parker!)
