Titus
Dear Houston Beagle & Hound
Rescue,
My
family and I would like to thank you for the opportunity to
adopt Titus . Titus is doing well and Lady is teaching him the
ropes of the household. LOL. Once we brought Titus home, it
took our existing Beagle, Lady about a day to warm up to him.
Titus has been good for Lady since Lady is a little on the
chunky side. He is giving her plenty of exercise with running
around and chasing one another through the house and then out
the doggie door into the backyard and then back into the
house.
Since the passing of our
other Beagle,
Roscoe, Lady was pretty down and really mopey.
Now with Titus in the house, she now has a buddy to harass and
play chase. Titus also has helped ease the pain of the passing
of Roscoe with the rest of the family as well. He has brought
joy into our lives. Every morning I am woke up by Mr. Titus
placing his paws on the bed and sniffing my face. It is a joy.
It is so funny that Titus
will walk me to the front door every time I go outside to
smoke. And he sits and watches me through the window until I
come back into the house. Crazy little guy. Titus has been
banned from watching TV on Monday nights when I watch a show
called “Prison Break”. This is due to him trying to dig a hole
under the fence. He has tried to escape but with no success. I
think Lady also catches him looking at the gate within the
fence and warns him of the consequences. LOL.
Titus
loves to run up and down the fence line checking out the
neighbor’s dogs. He has also made new friends this way. He
loves to lie in the backyard to chew a rawhide bone. When we
play “fetch”, I will throw a doggie toy and then he’ll usually
run and take it outside and leave it in the backyard. Knuckle
head. Anyway, he has also learned to sit for a treat. The
treat is a baby carrot. He loves carrots for treats. He now
knows when we say “Get in your kennel” he goes with no
problems. I am very impressed with this guy. He has no
accidents within the house.
The first night we brought
him home, he slept in his kennel or crate. After that night he
has been sleeping on a giant doggie pillow at the foot of my
bed. At first he thought he should sleep in my bed with me and
the wife. Now he knows that when I lock up the doors and set
the house alarm it is time to retire for the evening. He is a
very well trained dog. Mr. Titus loves to go on walks around
the neighborhood. He does very well on a leash. Titus also
loves to jump up and put his front paws on your legs.
Sometimes if you walk away while he is doing that, he will
walk on his hind legs to you to get petted. Crazy, but cute.
Titus is a wonderful dog and
once again I would like to thank y’all for letting us adopt
him. He is our second Beagle that we have adopted from you
guys and we appreciate all that your organization does for
these animals. My family and I take our hats off to y’all. We
are telling all of our friends and family about the work y’all
do and the wonderful animals that y’all for adoption. Y’all
take care and we’ll keep you updated on Titus . |
