Yay! Floyd is going home!

Our funny goof ball Floyd  is headed to his forever home.  According to the CCHS website he has been adopted.  We know he will bring laughter, joy and genuine affection to his new family.  Yay for you, Floyd!!

Floyd still waiting for his home

Clay sent me a nice message today letting me know that Floyd is still waiting for his forever home -- and that he was able to appear on T.V. this week.  He seems REALLY subdued in the T.V. studio -- which is not too surprising since like Clay mentions in the video, Floyd is a little apprehensive about new experiences.  He did eventually get accustomed to going up and down our front steps while he was here, but he never was too crazy about it.  Since he was  here on heartworm treatment and left as soon as that was done, we didn't get to take him on any long walks, or expose hime to a whole lot.  He did get used to having us around though, and is definitely a people dog.

Enjoy Floyd's T.V.  spot below.

Pretty Blue Eyed Floyd

Some videos of Floyd

We took some pictures today -- and filmed two videos --- so you can all get a good look at Odie Dog Floyd.  We couldn't catch him chasing his tail unfortunately, but you can see how truly playful and yet very affectionate that he is.  Even when he is all wound up though, you can see how easily he settles down for a good cuddle.  He definitely will bring humor to any family he joins.  And check out those sweet blue eyes!!

He'll be headed back to the Humane Society on Saturday, and we expect him to be up for adoption very soon.

Floyd nearly ready to find a home

I am so sorry I have not gotten any pictures of Floyd posted.  He is such a goof it is rather difficult to get a decent picture of him.  Definitely an Odie dog -- not a Lassie.  He keeps us in stitches chasing his tail, catching socks, and bounding about.  He has definitely been the most interested in our cats of any foster that we have had.  Obsessed might be a good word.  Jack considers him something to play with.  Zippy won't come down from the highest perch he can find.  Mike plays with no one -- and Floyd seems to be catching on that being batted at by Mike is a far pricklier experience than being batted at by Jack.  And Dart has learned to negotiate her way through the living room behind furniture if Floyd happens to be out of his crate.  Which actually has been very rare.  He is here for heartworm treatment, and he is not prone to sedate behavior out of the crate.  Which Jack thinks is very funny and sits next to the crate watching him. 

Floyd has a very pitiful moan, and does not enjoy being left alone at all, although he loves his crate -- just not being left in a room alone in it.  He is a people dog through and through, and wants to be with us.  Thus we have found it necessary to keep the crate in the living room where we usually are.  And his moan is not soft.  I definitely would not recommend him for an apartment dweller that is gone a lot.  Neighbors would not be happy.
