LOL Funny thing- according to the shelter he is Jack Russel Terrier/Corgie mix. I'm assumming that info comes up whe they scan the chip, cause I can't see where he looks JRT...lol I never had an animal that was chipped before so I have no idea what info comes up.
No, he doesn't. He does show attention to whistling but that's about all.Amy, if you want to change his name, go ahead. Everything else is new and you said he doesn't answer to it anyway. Call him whatever you like and give him a treat, he'll learn it very quickly.
lol Hey, my cat's name was Peanut. I rescued her at about 1 week old and she was a Peanut. Fought hard to keep her alive. She was a peanut right up to earlier this year when I finally got her fixed. She's not a Peanut anymore...lol she's 2 1/2. Here's her as a baby taking her bottle:
That's great.
Cayden would love it if he would learn to get on the bed and snuggle. lol
Keep an eye on the way he moves. JR's were originally developed in England, where they were used in fox hunting. They'd jump up onto the front of the saddle, from the ground, & ride there til the fox "went to ground", then the hunter would release the dog to run the fox out of the den so they could continue the chase, & the dog would jump back onto the horse again...saves having to get down & gather up the dog every time.. At 8 yrs old, your dog may be getting a little stiff in the rear and no longer able to jump very well, or he may have been forbidden to jump onto the beds early on.. I've never done it, but I'm told a baby aspirin helps to loosen them up.LOL Funny thing- according to the shelter he is Jack Russel Terrier/Corgie mix.

That's a nice ending to the story and his life.

I sold my first two pullets today!! $20 each! A dad and his 3 pre-teen daughters were going gaga for the silkies. Very nice family. His daughters were in love with the two little pullets. I was sad when I was packing them up and then felt better after I saw how nice the family was. Then I bought 2 silkie hens today!! One is 12 months and the other is 18 months old. Both are laying but the previous owners don't think they are fertile. So hopefully one of my cockerels will figure out how to do the deed soon and I will have fertile eggs! They are in quarantine now but PO said they were house pets and lived In the guest bedroom and have not touched soil. Can that be for real?? Do you think they still need a full month quarantine? Here's a pic:
Thats just ross' way of putting a barn door where only a window was needed
I've been busy all day and found it shut down . I thought It just got a slap .sent Ravyn a email to ask why
I agree. I was just thinking a bit ago that while he's got a good temperment that it doesn't seem like he's been loved and snuggled and just played with like a dog should be. I told Cayden that I think in a week or two he will be more comfortable and relaxed and "come out of his shell". He just needs time to learn to trust and feel comfortable here.
I was wondering about his backside as well, especially with his age.
Oh, I know. I felt so bad leaving the little female poodle mix there. She so wanted to out. If she wasn't such a barker we probably would have went with her. She was fixed and I think 7 years. A little more outgoing.
