Becky:
You were awesome to work with. Thank you!
I just wanted to touch base and let you know how well Mankey (we are going to keep his name) is doing.
He was a little timid Sunday night and most of Monday. But Monday night he started coming around and even gave me a kiss.
Yesterday - he ruled!! Finally, eating, drinking and doing his business. He and two of the cats have warmed up some, although Mankey is trying let one of them know that he's the boss -- which of course the cat disagrees with. The third cat is woosy and afraid to come out and meet him.
Mankey loves sitting on the back of the sofa in the living room and looking out the window. He also loves to cuddle up next to me and run around outside. He ignored his ball until last night at 10:00pm when he decided he wanted to play fetch. (And I wanted to go to bed.)
No accidents in the house yet - he's very good about letting me know that he needs to go out.
He starts obedience school at PetSmart in Carson City on Saturday, April 3rd. Because of his size he will be going to puppy school.
He has already gone for a ride in his booster seat - and seemed to enjoy being able to look out the window.
I put him on my Facebook page and got a number of comments about how cute he is.
For everyone who thought Mankey was cute and adorable, but didn't adopt him - thank you!! He is a wonderful dog and a great addition to our family. We're looking forward to many years with him and already love him dearly.
Pictures are still in the digital camera - as soon as I get them on the computer I will e-mail them to you so you can see how he's doing.
