Victor is settling in very well. Here he is catching a few rays with his new pal Syd.

Love this. I do miss the crazy lump but seeing him in his own home, with his new best pal, living the best life is all we wanted for him. Thank you for choosing Victor.
Give him a hug from me(when he is ready) x

Thanks Anne. He loves hugs. He is so loving and affectionate and we do try and give him space but he just follows us everywhere. He comes to us when he wants to be stroked or cuddled. Then when he's had enough he walks away.
He lets us stroke his head and face and today l brushed him because he watched me brushing Syd and insisted l do it to him. He collapsed in a heap with his legs in the air!
I really think being in a home with another dog is helping him. He sees what Syd does and how we treat Syd and l hope it's making him feel relaxed.
We know we have issues to deal with but so far he's been amazing.
He said he misses you all and sends his love but he's sorry he won't be coming back. X

In the last few,days Victor has discovered the joys of sleeping on our sofa and today our bed!
He looked a little worried when he jumped up there - think he thought he'd be told off but our dogs are welcome to sleep wherever they're comfortable!
Seems to be a happy boy in the house.
Walkies is still a work in progress...he loves walks with us and Syd but still reacts to some dogs. Early days though. He's only been here a week!
But he's a very lovable character.

...and today our bed.
Re: Victor Picardi x Lurcher DofB 27.06.16 Maplethorpe Lincs
That is heaven for these dogs being able to sleep anywhere!! No floors anymore!!
Re: Victor Picardi x Lurcher DofB 27.06.16 Maplethorpe Lincs
Victor is settling really well. Loves his dad's armchair!
He's eating well, playful, loves his toys especially his Kong bone, very good through the night, ok to be left for a few hours with his pal Syd, when we have to go out, loves a cuddle and a fuss. So affectionate. He's been a very good boy.
Outdoors is still a work in progress. He barks at some dogs but not others.
He met some strangers with their dog last weekend and was brilliant with them. Even taking treats from one of them. He was muzzled and wears hi viz rescue dog in training and caution lead sleeves so people are aware that he may be reactive. But he is doing well. Distraction and treats do help.
He loves the beach and seems to be happy here with us and Syd.
He really is a lovely boy
