What a sweet boy he is. We drove 7 hours down and 7 back with Frank and he was just perfect. Squeaked his rubber chicken now and again to let us know he was still with us in the car. We cracked up every time.
He was so good when we stopped for breaks. Waited nicely until he was invited out of the car and then hopped right back in when it was time to go.
There were two barky little dogs at one of the stops, but Frank just looked at them and said, "Whatever". Then met the snappy little bichypoo next door and reacted like the perfect gentleman he is. No biggie for Frank.
He's eaten his dinner, and taken several treats, so he isn't too worried or anxious which is good. But I'm sure he's going to miss his kennel mates. Especially the girls. Time will tell, but so far so good.
He's already enrolled in beginner obed, so we have class on Wed. nights now. He's very easy to handle, no pulling, which is good since he's a somewhat chubby 150 lbs. We both have to go on a diet. Unfortunately, he will meet his goal long before I do. Just 2 - 5 lbs for him. Won't say how much for me. LOL.
He loves to gait for me and stacks nicely, so we may definitely show in veterans. For a 7 year old, he's still very spry and hops on the grooming table with ease.
But best of all, he is a cuddly guy and gives the sweetest kisses.
I'm really glad I decided to bring him home. Hope to make these years his very best.
Will try to get as many photos as possible, but for right now, we are just bonding and discovering each other.
