Time for an Emi update! Even though we’ve already adopted her, she’s still growing in so many ways to adapt both to her new environment and our routines at home. She has officially been ours since December 13th but she came into our home as a foster on October 21st. This is our 3 month…
How does Shio keep his teeth clean? He has a personal teeth-brusher. Photos taken with Contax 645, 80mm f/2, on Kodak Portra 400NC. Developed and scanned by Richard Photo Lab.
Ooh, good job! You’ve managed to make it look like a pro job!

Vet: “Before you know it, he’ll start losing his teeth.” Me: “He loses his teeth?!” Vet: “Yes, at around 6 months he’ll start losing his baby teeth. You won’t even notice. You might find one or two in his toys but he’ll swallow most of them.” Shio is 5 months old. We have found 6…
awwww, thanks for the update!

How absolutely fantastic. Oh I love these adoption success stories, and photos of happy and healthy dogs. It keeps me going. Honestly… thank you!
What wonderful progress!! Agreeing with the others, glad she has found such a lovely family to adopt
Especially loving how both pups have bonded!
