Just wanted to give MWCR an update on Harry who we adopted in April 2002.
 
Harry has adjusted so well to his new home as you will remember he is 9 years "young" and just a real delight, so well trained, and has such a great personality. He does like to get up early, usually around 5:30 a.m. he pushes open the bedroom door and either nuzzles or jumps on the bed to say it is time to go for a walk in the woods to wake up the deer, squirrels or other critters he can find.
 
He is very sociable with other dogs (well most of them) and has made friends with Barney next door a golden retriever they enjoy playing and taking long walks with their masters around the neighborhood.
 
Harry is somewhat afraid of storms but as he feels more at home his anxiety is improving in that regard.
 
As the old song goes "I'm Just Wild About Harry, and Harry is wild about me". Thank you again for the opportunity to welcome Harry into our home.

Hi Lorri,
Just wanted to update you on Harry. As you may remember we adopted him on April 2 from his foster home in Merrill, WI.
 
Well, the past 2 months have gone by so quickly and we are completely in love with Harry and believe he feels the same about us. He is a wonderful new family member. The only problem we have experienced is his fear of storms and we did get him some medication from the vet to ease his anxiety when a storm is severe. We haven't figured out what went on in his past as whenever it storms he starts scratching at closet doors. So we're not sure if he was put in a room without windows or what.
 
He is a beautiful dog and all our neighbors think he is very handsome. He loves going for long walks in the woods but seems to think he needs to herd deer whenever he sees them and especially loves to chase squirrels!
 
We are so thankful that Vicki offered us the opportunity to have Harry, he is just a great dog.

Just an update on our new family member Harry.
Harry is a delight - we've had him less than a week and have fallen in love with him - and think he feels the same from his view point (which is usually the sofa in the family room).  He is adjusting well to his new home, just gets a little anxious if both of us are gone at the same time for a little while. 

Harry is so well trained, walks well and loves going into the woods to chase squirrels and takes great interest in the deer which frequent the neighborhood including our back yard.

Several neighbors have stopped by to welcome Harry to the neighborhood and have been thoughtful to bring him toys as he loves to play ball and likes squeaky toys to carry around.

Thank you so much to MWCR for allowing us to adopt Harry, we'll keep you posted on his progress.
Dick & Sharon, and Harry

 

Harry was fostered in Merrill, WI.
