Nathan the Wonder Dog Update!



Bonus S'mores photo!


I received an email from Nathan's mom yesterday morning letting me know the little bugger is doing well. He has been well mannered with everyone he has encountered, furry and otherwise. He got a good nights sleep on a new doggy bed and he has been doing pretty well on his leash and walks. I am so happy that he is adjusting well - but had very little doubt he wouldn't. He is just a very laid back guy - and if you are offering food, toys, a bed and a regular schedule of scratches behind the ears he sees no reason to complain. I hear his new kitty siblings are keeping him in line, and that was my biggest concern. He did well with our bunny, but we were diligent when they were together, so he didn't have much of a chance to do otherwise. Kitties are going to be less supervised, and not caged. My thought is if he didn't chase, mangle or eat a bunny then some kitties are probably going to be alright. Besides, kitty has much better defense and retreat mechanisms than our cute little S'mores.







Nathan was trustworthy in this sense, too...so someday Jenn and Keith can reproduce without fear! lol  






Jenn and Keith also sent along some photos to update us on Nathan's new life, and said that sharing with you all would be great =) 

Introducing BRUSCHI ! 
As you can see, he was well mannered in the car

And relaxed...

VERY Relaxed

He appreciates a nice treat =)

And takes a walk with his Dad.

Yes, Keith is a huge Pats fan and Nathan has a new name...and I love it SOOO much better than Nathan.
Did I ever mention that it took us a month before we all remembered his name was Nathan? 
Well, It did. 
We called out about 20 different things every time someone wanted his attention.
Or stared at each other blankly and whispered "What's the new dog's name again?" 

I was most often guilty of yelling "Larry!" 
Why? Why do I do anything, really.

I think Bruschi suits him.
Jenn and Keith suit him just fine, too =)
