King James is thriving!

The boy has gained almost 7 # since being brought in a few weeks ago.


My son did find that he is interested in chasing -returning tennis balls...but you have to have two or he won't play. Perhaps this has made him a little less likely to chase the cats. He has also been giving some kisses lately...like he's trying to say he's appreciating this.

King James is liked by all except the cats!

King James has no problem getting along with the other canine fur kids in his foster home. Setter boy Neal took King James' funny wrestling attempts during the first couple of days in stride.

April Update

King James made the journey from temp foster home in Tennesee, via temp foster home in Ohio to his new foster family that will get him through his heartworm treatment.


Upon arrival, foster mom Vicki writes:
The cats are very interesting...no outright scrambles yet. He barks at the cockatiels we have...no problems as the cages are mounted near the ceiling. I stopped in where I work before I got home to implant and scan his microchip and also weighed him...38.2 pounds. He's already eaten two good sized meals since he arrived, so we're working on that part. Pulled a tick off that was attached under his collar. Also found two pieces of shot or pellets under his skin, one at the front base of his right ear, one about mid-neck right side. Tomorrow, a bath! So far, so good! He played a lot today...he will be pooped out for a good night's sleep. He already knows how to sit...showed up Neal when he came into the house this evening!! *LOL* He crates up without a problem. He is a very good passenger in a car.
