Out with little, in with large.

As usual our subject matter is dogs, but I'm sure you'd spotted that pattern.

The recent sunshine we're having here seems to be bringing the "Fair Weather" dog walkers out of the woodwork. The Dene and the beach are almost littered with dogs and owners, some of whom should think about putting some effort into learning to control their dogs and teach their canine family members to recall, but I won't start a rant on this post.



The little puppy Kodi is healing very well and growing fast. Soon he may have little to show of his physical injuries, however he looks like he has the starting of a fairly dominant nature and other behaviour which already make him quite a handful. Some of his traits may suggest the possibility he was taken from the litter to soon.

But, things in our house have changed some what. Kodi is no longer staying with us, he is with other experienced dog owners as his new foster home, as we have taken in Josh.

Josh is a little bigger than Kodi. At a year and a half old he is already a very large dog who is fairly dominant and needs a firm hand. He's with us for a short time while a new home is sought and a medical complaint he has is being investigated. Josh has a lump on his back currently which has been tested by a vet and they believe it is nothing serious and it will go down on its own. He will be visiting the vet again tomorrow for further examination.

Currently we're actively looking for a very experienced home for Josh as he will need a handler who has the time and effort to put in to training.
