The Reunion

When Austen and Adler reunited after being apart for a week it was sweet. Adler couldn't get enough of Austen and you could tell that Austen missed Adler too. (Of course this was all after Adler spent about 10 minutes greeting Tom and I.)

During the trip, we kept asking Austen, "Where's Adler?" Austen would look down at the floor and then around for her, but he couldn't seem to find her. Suprisingly, he didn't get frustrated with our little game. He just seemed to accept that she wasn't there - probably because we weren't in our own house. Or who knows, maybe he was secretly glad that he didn't have to run to hold onto furniture or someone because he heard Adler barreling down the hallway. You see, he's learned that often times Adler can't put on the brakes quick enough on our slippery wood floors. (In fact, a few weeks ago she braked too late and smacked hard, face-first into our railing. She didn't whimper but she was a little stunned).

Here's a sneak peek at their little reunion, moments after we came back from being gone for a week. Now, you can only see the back of Adler but note Adler's paw up in the air and the pure joy on Austen's face.
