We love him, love him, love him!!

Posted on February 15, 2009 by David Couillard

Hi Joanne, as you know we picked up Riley on Sunday from Helen and as you can tell by some pictures, he is not fitting in well at all….NOT!!!!! We love him, love him, love him!! He and our little dog Gizmo are getting along well. Even caught a few secret kisses the other day! The cats have been a little reclusive but not afraid and we are sure they will come around in a few days. Riley is a very quick study. Caught him up on the kitchen counter the first day and he has not done it since. Walking on a leach is coming along great! Today was his first day ‘home alone’ so to speak and in his crate. He was absolutely fine. We bought him a kong for crate time which he seems to enjoy. He even has his own television!!! The kids say he enjoys the cartoon channel!

All that to say we love him to bits and he is a wonderful addition to our family. Please pass this message onto Helen and tell her thank you again! Thanks to all of you at Ani-match for all the amazing things you do. You may even see us at the Walk-a-thon!

We’ll keep in touch and keep the pictures coming.

Gorgeous boy!
LOVE Berners! We adopted Mac (a berner) back in February and we can’t image life without him.
Aren’t they fantastic?!
