Bart
I
just wanted to update you a little on Bart. He's pretty well
settled in now, and seems to be loving life. Bart has a lot of
character, at least once a day he manages to come up with
something to surprise me, from dragging his bed out of his
crate, and up onto mine, to trying to bury
toys
and bones under the furniture. He's six weeks into the
beginner's obedience class at Petsmart, and he's learning
quickly. He may not be the best behaved dog in the class, but
he's still the star. He grasps the concepts real fast, but has
a mind of his own and can be stubborn. I'm really patient with
him though, and he comes around. We can almost make it through
Petsmart without him trying to yank my arm off to get at a bag
of dog food, or treats.
He loves going for walks, and
can't sit still when he sees me pick up the leash. There's a
creek nearby and he loves to go see the turtles, and fish. One
of these days I think he's going to try to jump in, but so far
he hasn't. He still likes to chew, but sticks to his nylabone,
and rope toys so he's not destructive.
Bart is the best dog I've
ever had, and I am very glad I got the opportunity to adopt
him! I'm including a few snapshots of him so you can see how
he's doing.
