Raptor, the Dog of the Day
Name: Raptor
Age: Three years old
Gender: Male Breed: Coonhound mix
Home: Markham, Ontario, Canada
 
   I would like to share with you my beautiful pet. My son rescued him from the animal shelter three years ago. He was very shy and afraid of noises when we first got him - if you sneezed he would run out of the room afraid! We gave him a lot of love and reassurance and he is much better now.

    He is a beautiful animal with his big ears and big brown eyes! He loves to sit close to you and wants to play with you all day. His favorite activity is hanging around our backyard, guarding all the bunnies and birds. He will spend all day outside. It is like he is going to work! One day I will pack him a little lunch pail filled with doggie cookies inside.

    He is very sweet and dear to us and we are glad we could rescue him from the pound and give him a good home.

    Raptor - or Rappy - as we affectionately call him, has come a long way since joining our family. He no longer is afraid of the bubbles in a glass of Coke and you can sneeze and he won't run away! He loves to have his ears rubbed and especially loves it when you tell him how much you love him! But best of all, if he 'escapes' under the fence in the backyard while hunting a smell he always comes running home in a few minutes. I guess he loves us now as much as we love him.
