Introducing Katniss and Peeta, aka the Chicago fosters (note the name change!)

[Marie and Hoka]

Everything moving smoothly for my 2 foster dogs, who we have temporarily named Katniss and Peeta.

They are extremely sweet.  They both let me brush them, trim their faces a little them and cut out mats by ears.  Both eating and drinking, although not very food driven at all at this point.  Katniss is for sure house-broken.  Peeta had one small "accident"/marking episode.  No aggression at all to our dogs over the gates. Katniss choose to sleep in the crate with door open.  Peeta going in crate for meals, but needs training to stay in longer.  My husband and I each spent half the night downstairs with them to keep an eye.

Our set-up is working great, with everyone having their own space.  It works well that our dogs do not ever go in the basement anyway, so it is not their territory.

Thanks for all the moral support!!!

Retired people in their 60s make perfect adopters.
