Congratulations PJ!

Our most fun foster ever was adopted today by a fabulous family. Many congratulations to all! You have a "houndsitter" for life. Our doors will always be open to you PJ (and Cookie too).

He was a little nervous on the ride there but ended up all smiles.

Hi all – Kelly here. I just want to give a little update on Peter. He has been here a little over a week and is doing just great! We really are having a lot of fun with this fun-lovin’ boy. He has had zero accidents in the house. He is SO curious about everything, but he is quickly learning what is okay and what isn’t. He has pretty much stopped counter surfing, but sometimes he still can’t help himself if you leave something really yummy where he can reach it. We are also having to work on my daughter leaving toys in the floor because he thinks anything left on the floor must be for him. He isn’t chewing things up, though. He just likes to collect things in his crate. He does great on our solid-surface flooring. We didn’t even have to teach him the stairs – he watched me go up the first night and then came up right behind me. He has done great in his crate during the day but doesn’t like it very much at night. He would love to have a family that will let him sleep on the floor in their bedroom.

He is doing great with my daughter. At first I thought he might be too playful for her, but he is surprisingly gentle. He is generally very excited and energetic when you first get up in the morning, when you get back from being out, et cetera, but he quickly settles down. He spends A LOT of time sleeping just like any other grey.

Here is one of him enjoying the sunshine outside today. He had a little spot on his back that was treated with antibiotics and has healed beautifully. Now we’re just waiting on the shaved hair to grow back, which won’t take long.


Loves chin scritches


Peter doing what he does best (besides cuddling). Isn't he stunning?


Peter can roach with the best of them. He is determined I’m not going to get a picture of him in the act, but I am pretty sneaky. Be sure to keep an eye out for roaching pictures!
