I can’t believe it has been a whole MONTH since Mr. Redford has been with us! He amazes me everyday with his kindness.
He is a big, clumsy guy but with the sweetest heart. He could easily be bitter and untrusting from all the bad things he survived, but he is neither. He is happy for even a small head pat. He comes running if you mention his name. And if you think you can get away with ignoring him, he’ll make sure you know he’s there.
He is fully settled in at his foster home. He gets along with all of his foster siblings, and knows the daily routine like the back of his paw. Red is convinced that he’s a lap dog, and has to be reminded that only his head is lap-sized! He loves to chew up every toy he can find.
His favorite things to chew are tennis balls, or balls that make squeaky noises. Red still loves treats and knows where we keep the cookie jar; he makes sure that he gets some cookies before bed every night.
His fur is looking better every day, and he’s got lot of hair coming in on his once bare tummy, it almost seems like it appears overnight! The steroids worked wonders and his skin is no longer inflamed and irritated.
He loves having fresh water around all the time! He does this little hop-skip run when he’s happy, especially when he’s getting ready for dinner. He wags his tail all the time, because he’s so happy!
Sometimes I have to be careful around him because he’ll whip me with his tail! Red has such a funny sense of humor. He wants to play and be in my lap and just be close to people and his four-legged foster siblings.
Red is such a sweet, intelligent dog. He just wants to play and have his yummy food. He’s a beautiful dog on the inside, and it won’t be long until everyone can see it on the outside!
