git - r -done!

Published Apr. 7, 2008

This is "Done" (aka. Git - R - Done, his foster Mom calls him "Duncan") and my hubby and I visited him in his foster home Saturday.  His foster Mom said that he was more "animated" with us than any other potential adopters, so I'm hoping this means that his foster Mom will allow us to have the honor of caring for him for the rest of his life!

He was such a sweetie, loves to play fetch in the yard, and will sit on command.  We spent almost 2 hours with him and he snuggled with me on the couch and gave me kisses on the nose.  His one "bad" habit is tearing up stuffed toys and removing the stuffing, as soon as you give it to him (I timed him and it was less than 2 minutes).

I spent the rest of the weekend pricing dogs toys and treats online!! 

My hubby laughs now because he thinks I'm going to "bail" on our cruise, so I can bring Duncan home.   :-P

Hope you all had a great weekend...I did!!

Awww....you have a big heart! He is adorable. I hope you will be able to get him after the cruise.

WONDERFUL news...I hope he gets to go home with you and be spoiled silly for the rest of his days. He's adorable. ((((HUGS)))) to you for adopting rescues. Wish everyone would.

awww...such a pretty baby!...good luck!

Has anyone thought of a heated and cooled dog house?

Climate control doggie digs.

Congratulations,i'am so happy fore you.Iknow you are looking forward to bringing hime home with you.Mabe you better start on that fence before you leave on your cruise.

...take him for long walks and or let him loose in the woods with you. Have some treats in your pocket to reward him for coming when called and he won't run off. His frustration with the placation of stuffed toys will subside.

You could call him DUNK.

Congrats Grey!! You've got something to look forward to when you get back from your cruise!

Strolling_Bones, my first greyhound was 5 1/2 and she was an awesome pet. We've also talked about adopting one of the older dogs to keep Duncan company when we're at work (Duncan is between 4 and 5). There are 2, between 9 and 10 years old, that we've inquired about.

That sounds great Grey!!!!!!!! Congratulations my friend!!!!!!!
