Hi everyone,
I want you to meet the new member the of family. He's a seven-year-old, 9 pound Rat Terrier. He's had a rough start in life, living with many other dogs in the house of a hoarder. He has spent the last three months at the Naples Humane Society waiting for a new home.
I've decided to call him Mickey the Mouse. Call name Mickey. He's shy and a little confused having never been in a quiet environment.
So far he loves every dog he meets, but is not to confident about my old cat, who unfortunately hissed at him upon arrival. I'm sure they'll learn to coexist.
He's learning to take walks, which he had never had before, he wants to drag me down the sidewalk, chuckle, all 9 pounds of him.
He's doing very well with the housebreaking. It's hard to imagine an animal coming from his background and still being so totally sweet and trusting. He loves to sit on my lap and fall asleep, he already sleeps on the pillow next to me curled up like a donut. He doesn't give kisses yet, he hasn't figured that part out, he does touch me with his nose.
I miss Monty and always will, but this little guy does help fill the void. He needs so much care and love. I can't wait to see him open up as he gets used to having a real home.
He doesn't seem to know about toys or treats but is certainly enjoying the peace and quiet. More Mickey news later.

A day at the races.
It's nice having a dog who can be trusted around kids, 100%.

Oliver also found this prize gift from Felix Concolor (no, not the knife)
EDIT: I just found out from my neighbor that their guest was driving up the lane the night before Oliver had a snootful and saw Felis Concolor. It's very likely he made that scrape the night before.

May Oliver stay well clear of ol' Felis!
Sophie kept a sharp lookout for varmints at our crag today, but the ones she saw were all smaller than her.
