I wanted to send an update about "The Boys' Club" at our rescue kennel. These three handsome Lurchers are making GREYT progress. All three of them have faced challenges.
Chip has been with us since April and has just completed his heartworm treatment. Chip is probably 7-8 years old. We are basing this on the DNA results showing that his sister is Phoebe. As soon as his bloodwork is reassuring--he will get his neuter. Chip is a "chipper" little fella. He's about 60 pounds and enjoys leash walks or just lounging in the air conditioned crate.
Tony was rescued from the Amarillo shelter in April. He has also just completed his heartworm treatment. We are hoping to get him seen at the ABQ Eye Clinic for dogs sometime during September to figure out why his vision is failing. That said, he has spotted me from at least 50 yards away when he was on a walk and he runs like the wind in our turn-out yard. He loves to get his ears rubbed!
Sean is finally overcoming his fearfulness and just this week decided to go out to the turnout yard. He moved to Lubbock during March and would never venture past the back part of the kennel. That said, he seemed to have some fun, was playful, and managed to strike a pose for the camera-quite handsome, Sean is quickly catching on to leash walks. He is funny and goofy! He has not had his neuter--but we think that will happen pretty soon. You may remember his sassy sister Zoe just moved cross-country and by all reports is having a blast!
