Here's the write-up about him by the CP in-takes lady....I KNOW my sweet Vinny is pleased to have this little bundle of energy as his namesake!
Yesterday Kathy and Barney Hunt attended an auction that had one male Cairn listed, no age, just one male Cairn. This is a "bad" auction house and usually the sellers who frequent this sale have older, health issue dogs they are unloading.
Imagine Kathy and Barney's surprise when a bouncing 3 month old baby was brought out as the one male Cairn!
#3817 Vinny joined the CP family in all his puppy glory! He's been at the Hunt's for less than 24 hours, but Kathy has already shared two stories I have to share with you. In the photos in the album attached is a shot of Vinny with his very adorable belly band on. He's climbing into his bed, but the angle makes it look like he's lifting his leg. Kathy tells me after she put the bellyband on Vinny, he wasn't quite sure what to make of it. He didn't know how to walk or move, then slowly got the hang of it until he came to the bed where he proceeded to take giant strides while trying to get in because of the bellyband on. Then, being a puppy, BUT a Cairn puppy, he decided to hump his bed!! Now this morning, Vinny was out in the Hunt's backyard and heard the neighbor's dog so went trotting over to the fence to investigate ... again Cairn puppy. Only thing he didn't figure on was trying to walk on water! Barney had filled the swimming pool for the resident furkids and that was directly in Vinny's path to the fence, so he just walked right on over the edge of the pool ... until he hit the water and sank up to his neck. Good thing Kathy was there to yank him out! Yes, he is a Cairn puppy!!
Vinny is named in memory of a beloved furkid of friends of Diane Petrofsky through our Name a PM Program. I'm sure CP's Vinny is going to need all the guidance from above he can get!
Now, before you all try offering to foster Vinny, the MM Team is looking for a Foster-to-Adopt home for him and he will be staying with Kathy and Barney until then.
Yo, help me welcome Vinny to the CP family!
