Home on the Range

Just another update on Cowboy Cody: he's doing great! We've seen a lot more of his personality come out this past week. He's still very laid back and docile, but much more lovey dovey than he initially let us think. He's a big handsome mushmellow! We adore him. He still loves belly rubs more than anything, but he also loves big old full body cuddles. If you sit on the floor, he'll start by rolling over on his belly for a rub, then he'll upside down crawl/roll his way up onto your lap and just nuzzle you with his head as long as you'll let him. I'm a face squisher and he's not too keen on that yet, but he's learning to love it. I just can't resist with that big old nose of his! If you're sitting in a chair or on the couch, he'll come up and put his big old head on your lap like, "Pleeeeeez let me up...why can't I come uppppp". It's so sad and adorable. It's super tough to stand up to his charm, but we're still not letting him up on the furniture. He's a big dog; there's a good chance his forever family might not appreciate him being up on the furniture. Not to mention there's just not enough furniture in our house to hold all our dogs and us during evening TV time. Goodness. Although I do secretly hope his future family spoils him rotten and lets him hog the couch. He deserves that. He's still sleeping perfectly in his dog bed. We got him an extra large crate so that he has plenty of space to spread out while we're gone. He doesn't mind it one bit. He's fully house trained now and doing well in every other aspect of household life. Cowboy's scheduled to begin his heartworm treatment on Monday. I'll keep you all posted about that as we go through it. In the meantime, here are some more pictures!
