Sunday Salute - Nikki of Northern Cyprus!

This week our Sunday Salute goes out to our very dear friend Nikki of Northern Cyprus - formerly known as Nikki of South Africa! You may recall that our pal Niks made a very, very long trip recently, moving from her home in South Africa to her new home in Northern Cyprus. We are happy to report the quarantine is over, she has moved into her new house, and her stuff is finally there! Ha roo! Now that she has her computer back, she was able to send us some cool pictures!

Home at last!

Here she is, enjoying her first view of the Mediterranean!

Isn't that view gorgeous? Her dad let her get an even closer look!

Oooh! Salty!

Once she got used to it, she thought it felt pretty good under her paws. Here she is, getting her feety-feet wet in the Med!

And after a dip in the sea, there's nothing like kicking back on the terrace!

This really beats that whole quarantine thing!

She's really glad to be home with her bipeds again. She has suffered some cartilage damage in her legs, but has a terrific vet who is helping take good care of her. Her vet even makes house-calls!

Nikki, for enduring that incredibly long trip so bravely and for helping your bipeds settle into their (and your!) new home in Northern Cyprus ... we salute you! Continued happiness to all of you!

UPDATE! Nikki sent us a link to an on-line album with more gorgeous pictures of her new home in Northern Cyprus! You can visit the album here! Thanks, Nikki!

  4. We salute you too, Nikki! That was a long move. We will be glad when we get to move even if it is only about 100 miles away from here. And, thank dog, we won't have to go into quarantine!

  10. Hi Mates
    This is a great salute. Nikki is a strong girl for coping with quarantine but us doggies will cope with anything to stay with our hoomans, and Nikki's hoomans are good ones taking her with them. This is the way it should be. Nikki's new home looks bootiful.
    Love from Hammer
