Newest Foster dog arrives

After taking a few weeks off from fostering, the call came in last week that GSD/Husky mix was is desperate need of a foster home as her time was up at the humane society in Milwaukee. The amazing volunteers at GSRAW coordinated a pick-up team who took Midnight out of the pokey and transported her to Johnson Creek where I met the newly freed hound.
The backstory is similar to many others. Midnight is an owner-surrender who had to give up her dog upon moving to a non-dog home. This is one seriously nice and human-focused girl. The blue eye thing kind of freaked me out at first, but for a mix, she sure looks GSD.

The only problem that I determined, is that Midnight is a alpha dog wannabe. Teiko has serious issues with her and doesn't like her. She wants me to be her best friend and is trying to push her way to the top of our home doggy hierarchy to get to me. Teiko has other thoughts about that idea and has let it be known. Hence, this makes for a somewhat tense environment.

Midnight is slowly coming around to the idea that she is not top dog here. Nor should she be, she's an interloper, with a temporary visa to the life of Rylee.

Don't get me wrong, she is a great human companion. Sticks right by your side, comes when called, completely housebroken, plays with toys and even fetches. Everyone that has met her, absolutely adores her, heck, our Wyoming Aunt and Uncle wanted to take her home with them.

She just needs to be top dog and probably only dog in her forever home.
