Well I have been in my foster home since Memorial Day. I've settled in and am feeling comfortable with everyone. I don't mind being outside without humans now and I have even started playing with stuff. I chase birds in the yard and I try to play with my foster sister. She's not to sure of me yet, 'cuz when I want to play I get down and "army" crawl or bark at her. If she has a chew stick I want, I dance around her or sit there and bark at her until she's had enough of me and gets up and leaves it behind.
My foster mom has taken me for walks, but there is something about it that scares me. I wish I could tell her what happened BEFORE I came to her, but she has the patients and loving voice to ease me through it. I don't start off wanting to go, I like the security of the house or yard, but I'm getting better. I ride really well in the car without a cage. I just curl up and sleep. I like to eat and right now I can eat three meals a day. I don't always finish it each time, but that's okay.
When I get in a goofy mood, I can run around the yard and amuse myself with a ball or bone and just toss it around and run with it. I also like to bury my chew sticks, but if it's in the flowers, foster mom tells me NO and I find another place.
Well, I guess that's it for now. When more new things come up, I'll let you know. Until then, please check me out or the many other dogs at Illinois Birddog Rescue that are waiting, like me, for that perfect forever family.
Bogie.
