Anyway, he had a mooch around, was shown his big comfy bed, the big toy box, the garden and all the other bits and pieces he needed. His new sister chose to ignore him. Our 2 children here gave him lots of love and cuddles and the younger one cried because she was so happy to have another dog. Sam's new Grandma & Grandad came over to meet him as they come over on the days that one of us is not at home and look after the dogs and take them for a walk
Here he is a couple of hours after arriving with his new Dad settling in on the first night and his new sleeping arrangements .............I think he thought it was better to keep his distance for a while.
Today is Friday and Jessie has only told him off once more. She wouldn't walk with him on Wednesday or Thursday but today she did !!!! We went on a really long walk today and Sam got to go swimming in the stream. He has settled in really well. We are thrilled with how well trained Sam is and can't believe how quickly he has settled in. He walks right beside you, strays very little, comes when shouted, sits, lies down, gets his own lead................and wees all over my planters (something very new to me having only had bitches before !!!). He plays with toys but doesn't know how to fetch a ball which is fine but seems really odd when he is well trained with everything else.
He is off to the vets next week to be checked over, have his jabs and his microchip re-assigned. Below is and achievement................taken this afternoon..............we think Jessie has decided he can stay too !!!
We post another update in a few weeks
Thank you so much for giving him a new home, it doesn`t bear thinking about what nearly happened to him at the beginning of the week.
