Little Announcement About Maymay
I've got a little announcement about Maymay. She is officially with my parents. I think this is great for Maymay. My one worry about adopting her out when I was fostering her is that she NEEDS to be with someone constantly. She can not be left home alone for several reasons: she howls, she gets into mischief, and she has accidents. Since day one, Maymay has been home with either Koda, myself, or at my parents house. It has worked out well, and I would have continued with that schedule but my mom announced that she is retiring early and has gone down to only working two days a week. This is perfect for Maymay and my mom. My parents were considering getting another dog when my mom retired and could be home more. They wanted a Kai. She loves them so much that it made perfect sense that she would live with them.
She has been there for the past couple of weeks, and is so happy. She loves having her own space, and Koda and her are still together three days a week. Koda loves going over to see her, but I don't think he misses her in his home. ha ha. He is pretty content with just me. Maymay is loving all the extra attention, and she is spoiled!
I'll update soon with pics. She is blowing coat right now and looks pretty terrible. She's going in for a grooming tomorrow. I hope this helps spead up this process....

I will steal her though on the weekends every once in a while. The house is so quiet without her here. It's really wierd. I can't wait to see her Thursday so she can give me big hugs.
Maybe a Kona pup one day if I'm lucky enough. I still stalk Kona!
Good luck, and keep us updated on how everyone is doing.
Oh and Koda has started kissing Maymay and rubbing his face down her whole body. I think he loves her even more now that he doesn't have to be with her 24/7. This is something that Maymay used to do to him and he would just stand there like he didn't care. It's good to see him more affectionate towards her.
Although, I might point out that it may be better to keep them separate for a while. It sounds like there are some attachment issues that Koda is having, and by continuing to let him spend a lot of time with her you might be feeding them. I hate to "ruin the moment", but I figured it was worth mentioning.
Maymay's been with my parents for a while now. I wanted to make sure this situation was going to stick before announcing it. Koda is actually doing much better. We are just now starting to integrate them mainly because I have to have Maymay this weekend and Maymay can not be left alone. He left my parent's house just fine today. I think two days in a row was enough for him. He's now laying in my bed sleeping and waiting for me.
