We
adopted Russ (aka Wally) last February, and I just wanted to give you
an update on his/our new life.
Russ
has quite the personality and is a joy to be around. He has lots
of energy but also enjoys cuddling on the couch as well.
He
runs very fast and will retrieve a ball endlessly (we use the ball
thrower that came with him). We had him up at the lake for most
of last summer. He really enjoys searching and chasing chipmunks
and squirrels. He bounces through the bush like a rabbit.
Although he never gets close to catching one, he never gives up.
Russ
also discovered water. We are not sure if he ever swam before
but he caught on fast. In the shallow area of the lake, he will
continuously splash his front paws in the water and then bite at the
bubbles that splashing motion creates.
Russ
is very portable ... we take him everywhere. He likes car and
motor-boat rides as well as excursions in the kayak.
He has really changed our lives in just a short time, and it's really
hard to imagine life without him.
Thanks very much!
Wayne,
Cathy, and Stephanie
