Happy endings

Milva was born on the road, in one of the coldest villages of mountainous Arcadia, in the heart of winter. 

Their mom, Tilda, did everything she could to keep her babies warm and full in an incredibly inhospitable place. 

One of the babies disappeared, and mom with Milva and her sister Monica came to Athens with us. The babies grew up with their mom, weaned, and are now ready for their forever home. 

Milva is a dog who has taken a lot of her mom's hesitancy, but she has also taken her tenderness and kindness. 

She is the bravest of the two sisters, she will take the initiative first, she will catch you first, she will show all the puppy joy and playfulness

This dog is as from n another world. As if from another era, as from another cosmos, a noble, airier, more dreamy world. 

Chantilly (meaning whipped cream) is as if she was born into a noble family, where generations and generations of good manners were passed on to the younger members, without anyone having taught them anything practically. Politeness, this old-fashioned nobility of fairy tales is as if it comes out of her genetically, as if by nature. 

Although it is a large dog, it is delicate in manners, and an incredibly discreet presence. 

He will be happy, he will come for caresses, but he will never demand anything. She will approach you slowly and discreetly, like a breeze, only if you call her, and she will let you caress her wonderful, eerie face. It will be like stroking a cloud. 

While the other dogs run and play, she sits like a lady somewhere in a corner, looking around calmly and in a way that makes her look wise. 

She looks as if she is too good for a shelter, without being a snob. 

She came to us from the public pounf of Tripolis, nery underweight and neglected. 

She is healthy, vaccinated and spayed. 

If you like woolly bear dogs, and you stare at them on the street while imagining how perfect it would be if they went out in a mini, WE HAVE ONE!

Stevie looks like a dog, but he's the size of what the coffee table can't reach. He has two gnarled eyes that he doesn't even undress when he runs, and he has a scherzo, and he has a nazi. 

He's funny, too, and when he's happy, which he's almost always, he's even funnier. 

We met him at the municipal kennel of Tripoli, where he made us a lot of nazis and chuckles, and he always played it difficult before coming for petting - and the dogs that play it hard "and well" and do these dances "you won't catch me / look how I come so cut that you just can't reach me" drive us crazy. 

We thought for a long time that she was a girl, because she has the character of a girl (these nazis are much more characteristic in female dogs). And we called him affectionately "butterfly", because that's how he danced around us, like a butterfly that you can't cathc but you so much want to.

When we knew he was a boy we couldn't get over the butterfly as a name and as a feeling, and we took him out Stevie, from Steve McQueen in the movie "Papillon (translated the Butterfly". AND WHICH WE DISCOVERED ALSO SUITS HIM.

Because he says, in the film, Papillon the protagonist, is unjustly imprisoned for life imprisonment for a murder he did not commit in a prison with very harsh conditions, and determined to win his freedom, he allies with another prisoner and they plan their escape. 

So our own Stevie, our very pwn Papillon, who was unjustly imprisoned in the pound of Tripoli, allied with us and planned his escape, which was late, but eventually happened!

He is vaccinated, neutered and healthy, loves to run and catch his ball, and is looking for a home where there is humor and an appetite for play. 

Pepper came with her brother, who is almost identical, with a few more white details, and for the first few days we couldn't get enough of looking at those two. We would just give them a toy or two and let them play with each other and we would just fool around, as if we were watching the funniest and cutest sight. 

It is a hunting dog black, lanky, with high legs and ribbed, slender body. It has an ebony and glossy coat that shines in the sun and is like stroking velvet. 

She walks sometimes with her nose down, looking for the smells she thinks she needs to discover, and sometimes with her head held high with her lovely ears shaking up and down. 

She's an incredibly good puppy, she's very cheerful and enthusiastic, she's happy with you, she's happy with walking, she's happy with life, she plays and runs and falls down on her back and melts in caresses, and when you have a treat (and she has an appetite) she sits down, and looks you straight in the eye and even her ears seem focused on you. 

She is an incredibly pleasant puppy to be around, and you enjoy every moment of watching her be herself while slowly guiding her into becoming the best dog she can be. 

He's gorgeous. Black hound, which came when it was a trickle, thin as a feather, with a coat incredibly glossy and smooth, which was like caressing velvet. 

Nelson is a pitch-black, velvety dog, sociable and loving and funny. He goes for a walk and his long legs sway elegantly and it's as if he's walking lightly. A lot of times he goes nose to the ground, looking for smells like he commands him to do his DNA, and he fools around with his sister, and digs holes in the ground, and he curls himself, and he comes to cuddle and do all these puppy things that we love in dogs of this age. 

When he's focused and you're holding a treat, he does the sit down and looks you in the eye with that puppy who wants to be a good kid. 

He is a puppy very pleasant to watch, and very pleasant to spend time with. 

She's short, she's stocky, she's perfectly lines as if she's designed by someone so that nothing out of place is on her, her ears are right rabbit ears that go up and down and sideways depending on her mood, and she's a wonderful character. She's personal, she's confident, she's stylish, she's brilliant, and she learns incredibly fast. Phoebe is the ultimate puppy. If you get to know her you will understand what we mean. She is very sociable and sweet, communicative, cooperative and as playful as she should be for her age
