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.
