this here's vince! another guy up for adoption at the shelter. picked him up sunday and i gotta take him back today but he's had a great time and gonna make someone a great companion.
5 months old and spent his first 4 months in a basement with his 7 litter mates. took him straight to the dog park after making the jailbreak. took about 10 minutes before he understood what dogpark is. then it was game on! he played great with all dogs and stayed away from ones with too much energy. little big guy even played great with a miniature doxie-nice and gently.
i think i say it often with quite a few of the dogs i get out of there for a couple days but this guys gonna be hard to take back. even though i know the shelter will find a great family for him, he is just an amazing little guy. loves people, loves dogs, plays great, corrects easy, couch potatoes great......yup, gonna be hard takin him back.

i dont remember what was on TV sunday, but he was REAL interested in it. seeing how interested my dog was while layin on the armrest, it musta been a show about dogs other than him.

i dont think theyvew figgered that out yet.

this is another instance showing theres still a lot of good in the world. i read it often around here when a pet goes missing-people get out searching.
the pic when he came home i find funny-reminds me of the only time i had my little guy off leash and he disappeared for a couple hours. got home and he had a,"i dont know what all the fuss is about. this was the best day ever!"

Ha ha, yes, despite a broken paw my little guy was the same. He had a drink, started wagging his tail and was ready to play.

Came home to a very happy boy, enjoying a roll on the grass.

He is slowly on the mend, although I'm betting he can't wait to get that stupid red thing off his head.

This is Ziva trying to casually hide her favourite squeaky chicken from her brother, he really hates it.

wouldnt ya know it, i got a call from the rescue monday morning. someone we met at the dog park sunday evening filled out an app for the little guy. since i spent some time with the couple that put in the ap, they asked me what i thought about them.
i couldnt lie. vince played great with their dog and the couple kept an eye on their dog which they adopted 6 months ago. i felt they were perfect for vince.
i dropped vince off tuesday at the rescue and saw the couple again. the rescue got the process done quickly and shuffled us all out the door.
them 2 couldnt make it to their car before lovin all over the little guy and he was lovin on them.
they mentioned they goto the dog park a few times a week and ever sunday afternoon. this will be the first dog ill be able to see after adoption. woohoo!!!
