I AM Alive... an update

Hi folks, I realize I haven't posted in ages it seems... things have been busy on the bully front! Sophie is doing well, haven't had any competitions since the last agility trial I told you guys about. We took in a Hurricane Katrina foster dog... his name is Ricky and he is fantastic! He is an intact male bulldog, hasn't been neutered yet because he has been undergoing treatment for heartworm... the big snip day is in a couple weeks!

Here are some pictures of him in chronological order... the first ones are of him when he was still living at a boarding kennel, the ones indoors are from the last week that he has been living with us.

When I first met him at the kennel:




On a walk on the hiking trails:




First day home:


Soph and Ricky:








And last, but certainly not least:

this photo I think would be hilarious for a "caption this".

I'm so glad to see him with you, what better place for him then you. You'll have to give us updates on how he's doing. And I always love to hear about Sophie!

Thanks Melanie! I know you can relate to taking in a special dog like Rick. There is a possibility that he might become a permanent member of the household, but he also might go to live with my uncle and his wife if they buy the house they just put a bid on... That way he would be nearby, and would come over frequently for playdates! Soph would go and visit him as well. He is such a charmer, he wins over the hearts of everyone he meets.
