| Henry and Buster |
Buster is now officially adopted!
FINALLY, we
have officially adopted Buster. The delay was worthwhile as Upper Credit
assisted us in finding out how best to handle Buster's allergies.
From
the first day when I met Buster, and he barked ferociously from his kennel (he
was just excited and knew that when people came by it meant food or a walk), we
fell for him. While the bark was pretty intimidating we watched the
"tail" which was screaming "happy happy happy" let me out!
It is unfortunately that large dogs that get excited are passed by due to
people thinking they are uncontrollable as this is simply not true. Buster (in his past life) was very well trained, knew all his commands
and listens very attentively. His "featured animal sheet"
described Buster perfectly: he is happy and simply wants to be with people all
the time; however, is happy to relax with his new brother "Henry"
also an Upper Credit rescue while we are out.
He loves attention,
affection and belly rubs. Upper Credit was the second kennel that Buster
was transferred to due to the scary first impression that could be received. We are glad to make him part of our family. He's one big love
machine but is a great guard dog when the need arises. We are as happy to
have him become one of our family as I'm sure he is.
Once again,
thank you to Jody and all the staff and volunteers at Upper Credit Humane
Society. The work you do is so very important.

It's already been a month since I arrived at Johanna's.
Can't believe how quickly time goes when you're having fun. As you can tell
from the pictures, life is exciting. I have my own space filled with delightful
things like dried leaves, dried grass, wood shavings and straw. My front door
is a tunnel out into the main area of the chicken coop and to a door outside
where I can romp in the snow, kick up my heels and nibble on last year's
Christmas tree. At night, when the chickens are up on the roost (silly
creatures) and the hatch is closed, I can roam around and bask in the warmth of
the heat lamp, if I want to, that is. Most of the time I hang out in my own
apartment where I get served tasty tidbits (pellets, oatmeal, carrots, cabbage,
etc, etc.). 
Just want you to know that life is good with me
too. For the moment, I'm living in a little room with lots of plants and a cat
named Ko-Ko who tells me she hates the other cats. I don't have a very big
cage, but I can hop out any time I want. When spring comes, I'll get to go
outside with everyone else. Meanwhile, I'm having fun.
