WyoBC Posted December 6, 2006 Report Share Posted December 6, 2006 Only one more day until Black Jack is home with me! I'm going to pick him up tomorrow around ten in the morning, then a quick vet check up and home we go. I'm so excited I didn't sleep last night, and probably won't tonight either. but who needs sleep? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShoresDog Posted December 6, 2006 Report Share Posted December 6, 2006 Congratulations! You really deserve getting your wish. You earned it by volunteering at the shelter and being patient. Black Jack is quite a lucky dog to be getting such an owner. Be patient with him if he's not perfect on his first days at home, and don't throw too many new people and experiences at him right away. He has lots and lots of time to be in his new home, so no point in hurrying. Best wishes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WyoBC Posted December 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2006 Thanks guys! Well I got him home. He's great!!! He's better than he was at the shelter. I spent most of the day out with him, walking him and just playing with him. He loves to hug me with his paws and give everyone kisses He's had his fun seeing everything new and exciting. He was pretty worried when I first picked him up and brought him home but he's starting to settle in. You can see it in his eyes that he's feeling more at home already. One of our friends used to work at the shelter and loved Black Jack, she found out today that I adopted him and called me tonight and gave me a hard time. She was glad I got him though I have pictures coming Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WyoBC Posted December 9, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 Man it has been crazy, I really can't remember much of the last three days I think he's feeling more at home the last day or two. The only thing is that he doesn't seem to know how to play yet. I guess nobody had taken the time to play with him before. I have pictures coming, they're just still on the camera It's funny, when I first came here I heard you guys say, be firm but nice, and sometimes you have to "try" to out smart them. Well I wasn't sure about all of it until I got him home. It all makes sence now, EVERYTHING! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dixie_Girl Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 Glad you got him home and enjoying him! How are him and Sage getting along? Just remember it can take a month or longer to know what his "true" personality is! So, don't be surprised when he starts changing. He will probly start playing! Right now he is trying very hard to get to know the lay of the land and what his role is. It will be a big help to him knowing you already! I know y'all will be fine! Keep us updated and hurry up with those pics! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
