This
is Volcom, and he is so cool! I adopted him March 24 and I am so
happy he came into my life. Supposedly he had been abused by some
kids. When I first picked him up, he tucked his little tail under and
clung on for dear life. After holding him for almost two hours, he and
I both decided he had a new home. He only whimpered in his cage for
about fifteen minutes, and has kept it spotless. He is in training now and
apparently is a genius!
He is so attentive when I am going over a new command, and even though
it is basic puppy stuff, he looks me right in the eye. He has been
with us for two months, and still inhales his food. So the newest
thing he is learning is to sit before he eats. I told him twice and he
now does it on his own. When he sees his water bowl first thing in the
morning, he is so excited that his tail almost lifts him up into the
air. It is wagging so fast that he ends up circling the bowl as he
drinks. He gets a little scared when we go for walks at night and when
there are teenagers around. But he has never once acted mean, vicious,
dominant or anything else to make me think his early puppyhood might
bring out something in him to scare children. He absolutely loves
going to the dog park and has lots of best friends. But it takes two
trips a day to wear him out! He loves taking his "sissy" to high
school every morning but is confused when she walks down the long hall
and doesn't walk back. Everyone loves my little wolf/bear lookalike. I
am a happier person because of him and I know he loves me for saving
him; his happy little tail tells me so.
