Dro Bones -- the fun filled 60 lb lap dog

Well, Dro Bones has definitely been a contrast to the sweet laid back Roxy who we would forget that we had out of her crate.  There is no forgetting about Dro Bones. 

This is an enthusiasitc joyous doggy dog.  My 8-year-old  nephew Timmy was here for a visit -- and they immediately became fast buddies.  We have learned that Dro Bones loves a tummy rub.

And I was able to post a picture of his gorgeous grin today.  He just can't help it -- he is way too full of fun to keep that smile hidden.

It is hard to keep him contained in the crate all day when he wants to play and be sociable so bad -- but it is necessary for now.  Till he has had his month of heart worm treatment recovery.

Not only is he fun and full of excitement but he is very smart also.  I am glad we have this month to work with him on some behavior issues.  Already he has learned to wait for the door to be opened rather than pushing on it.  He is learning "Crate" -- so we can say it and have him go in rather than having to push him in -- and is progressing very well.  If he is not in an excitable situation he can be relied on to sit on command.  Our times together are limited because of the heartworm treatment -- but we are making full use of them.  (and bacon grease on a bit of bread is a favorite treat).
