George

We just wanted to give an update on George, whom we adopted from you back in July 2014. Attached is a "family" picture we took back in September, with his puppy brother Toby (adopted from another agency). Toby is about a year younger than George, and although it took a few months for them to figure out how to play together, they are inseparable now. Toby is more of a wrestler, George is more of a runner, but the two found a style of play that works for them. Where one goes, the other follows, and George loves his little puppy brother. Over the summer, George started to learn how to swim - sometimes going deeper than where he could touch. Water still makes him nervous, but he loves to be in the water (where he can touch). He'll go out deeper if there is a ball and other dogs are going after it. We often find George either picking raspberries off the raspberry bush, or picking apples off the apple tree in our backyard for him and Toby to eat. Whenever we are at the dog park, George is always keeping a watchful eye on Toby, just in case! George also LOVES children, as we have seen him with my three nieces (who are now 8 months old, 3 years old, and 5 years old). We had the two older nieces at the house over Thanksgiving, and George and the 3 year old were inseparable - indoors and outdoors. George has the most patient personality with children, which is great as we are expecting our first child in January.
