He's a natural!

Funky has been here less than 48 hours and he has REALLY taken to life in a home!  He's truly a natural at it ☺  His house manners have been perfect - no accidents - and just one chewing no-no.  He found MY own stuffie, LOL - a Dogbert stuffie - and thought it was his.  No no...  Humans can have stuffie's too ☺

He's quickly learned the eating routine, with no sign of food aggression.




For dessert, he had his first trachea and he loved it!  He's a gentle boy, taking treats easily from your hand, and patient for his turn.



Funky was relaxed and happy and comfortable enough to roach last night!  That's really fast for a foster to feel that secure so quickly! 




This morning he was back at the stuffies - he loves to just walk around with one in his mouth.


Hey, Funky, could you try to be a little cuter???

So this is retirement!

Funky just got here last night and he's already figuring out home-life! ☺  He's met all my hounds and, after a whole lot of sniffing, he's been welcomed by all. 

He had a restful night, and slept til 6 AM!!  That's really good!  Since he's a greyhound, though, a good night's sleep is never enough, and he's already had several naps this morning ☺  So many new beds to try out...




Funky is not cat or small dog safe - he's really very keen with their barking and seeing them.  Squeaky toys get his focused attention, and he's already become a stuffie hound. 



He did fine in the storm last night - no sign of fear at all.  And he is already a pro at all the stairs!  Yeah, Funky!!!


All this and he hasn't even been here a day!  Stay tuned  ;-))
