Hello Jennifer and
all my old friends at the shelter. I am sending some pictures
that I thought you would like to see. There's some of me
at home, some of me at my cottage and a few of me out for a walk in
the woods with my new family. I went to PEI this summer and had
a blast on the beach - but my new family forgot the camera so I don't
have pictures to send to you.
I am adjusting very
well to my new
home. My new family is very happy that they
didn't take me back to the shelter after the first few days. I guess
I was a handful in the first few days, but I eventually settled
down. My next door neighbour is a dog person and really helped train
my new family in how to handle me. They read Cesar Milan's book on dog
psychology (The Dog Whisperer). Now I'm a lot happier and so is my
new family.
I'm going
to obedience classes so that I'll be even better than I am now.
My new family is very happy with me - although they tell me there are
a still a few rough edges I need to take off. Obedience classes will
do that. They understand that I am a real sweet dog that likes
nothing better than to please people (although I do have a mind of my
own sometimes - but I think my new family likes my spirit and
character).
Life in Kanata is
very good for me. I get walked twice a day. On the weekends and some
weeknights I get to run in a nature preserve - there are miles of
trails where I can run. And I get to go to the family cottage in the
summertime. My neighbour (Sharon) has three huskies and sometimes I
get to go spend time with them. They tell me that I will be part of
a dog team this winter. Sharon thinks I will do just fine on the
team.
Anyway, I hope you
are all fine. Take care ...
Hello to all my
friends at the shelter. Here's pictures of me running with my dog
team. I get out 3 - 4 times a week all over the Gatineau.
Check out my shoulder muscles - I'm buffed! I'm now working my way up
the team and am training to be a lead dog.
Take care,
Tye
