Kevin came to Shannon Radosevich's house for Jaxon,
as did Shell & Jim Lewis to pick up Dakota
to take back to Karen & Randy Hradek.

Jaxon is a couch potato. He loves to cuddle.
Today, Bob took Ginny (for Peg Emond in Michigan),
Micki (for Sue & Mike Losinger in Michigan)
& Anna (for Sue Perry in Michigan) from Peoria, Illinois
to Hammond, Indiana to meet his sister, Barb,
who took the dogs on to Kalamazoo, Michigan
to meet Sue & Jeff Royle, who continued the transport on.
On Sunday, Jim & Geri Shurts from Peoria picked up
the last two, London & Sadie, who are pregnant
and took them to Indianapolis to meet Tom Watson,
who took them south to Louisville, Kentucky
to be fostered by BJ Isaacs & Peggy Nalley.
The larger dog is London; the smaller is Sadie.
Jim holds Sadie; vet tech Barb holds London.
Barb said all these Cairns had the sweetest personalities;
she couldn't believe they came from a puppy mill.

The Moms traveled well for most of the trip. They were facing each other in the back and had a few "discussions." When we stopped to potty them, they did not want to go on the grass. Jim took one and I took the other and we walked quite a way into the grass and they did what they were supposed to do, but they were so cute, picking up their feet like they weren't sure what they were feeling. They much preferred the rocks at the vet office.

They both went into Tom's back yard and promptly left him gifts.
They were both adorable and I wanted to bring them both home.
