Adoption Update: Clint has a New Name!





Just a note to say good morning, things are going well I think.

I did end up re naming him...Rudy, or Rootie, either or, there's a good story to it but we all feel like it's a good pick.  He loves the snow! When we were walking this morning out back, he looked like he was really having fun, and finally relaxing a little.

For the most part, around here I let him off leash totally, no problems, comes when I call and when we are going in the house will come in right with me.  Every now and then he says he isn't ready yet, usually when it's most inconvenient, but that's even rare.  I take him with me just about everywhere I can to inundate him with people, kids you name it.  I figured he's going to have to get over it sooner or later.  It doesn't take long in a strange home for him to let other people pet him.... I expect that'll improve with time.  What do you think?

The kitten Be el and him seem to do fine. I plan on having he here full time next week.  He isn't out of his crate when I am not around, mean their time together isn't un supervised.  He plays gently with he, nosing her mostly.  When he gets a little to much she just goes and hides.  No hairy eyeballs that I can see.

One other thing.  So far, he hasn't shredded a thing.  I think the kennel was stressful as you said.  


Gonna run, literally, we do most days, 4-5 miles right now.  I hope that's enough to keep him in shape.  He is a really good running partner. Thanks for every thing.

Peace,

Amy
