Hello from Ronnie


Hello to all my friends and pooches at the HSOY. I have been very busy since I adopted a new family during the HSOY adoption event at Pet Smart in Yuma on Saturday November 29.
My new parents are Brenda and Bob and they think I am adorable because I have been busy showing them how sweet I am. First things first. On Monday, mom and dad took me to a veterinarian who checked me over from head to toe. He said I do not have any heart worms or fecal worms, but I do have an upper respiratory infection and that my incision from where HSOY spayed me had become infected. He wants my stitches to stay in a few extra days because of the infection, then mom and dad will take me back for a re-check and have the stitches removed. The doctor has fixed me up with some medicines and said I should be is top shape in a few days.
I have been busy showing my new family that I am housebroken and have been a very good boy about going to the door and telling them I need to go outside to potty. I also have shown them that I don’t bark when someone knocks on our door or another dog goes by. That makes mom and dad very happy.
They were most surprised when I showed them that I know how to sit up when they offer me a doggie treat, and when I am hungry I will use my nose to push my food bowl over to them.
Mom and dad bought me a new collar, halter collar and leash, a new blue bed. My new sister, Charlotte, a Labrador retriever, thinks I am OK! She lets me sit down beside her and play with her toys. She didn’t even mind when I ate from her food bowl too. Charlotte has lots of toys to play with but my parents bought me some toys that are just my size.
Well, better go for now. Mom and dad want to take me for a walk and snuggle me some more. They have given me lots of hugs and kisses since I adopted them and I think we are going to be a wonderful happy family together because mom and dad love me so much. I miss my canine friends at HSOY and hope that they find a family who loves them too.
