Lego




I wanted you guys to have an update on Herbie. We have decided to call him Lego because my fiance is Danish and it is a Danish word that means "play well." We actually got the idea from the other black puppy on the website that was named Lego. He has transitioned to the name very well and comes running when you say his name now. He is so funny and always underfoot, what a character!
Anyway, he is doing great. He has really settled in here with us and seems really happy. We go for long walks and he is doing a great job staying with us and saying hi to everyone. He hasn't had an "accident" in the house since the 2nd day we got him and loves his crate. He naps in the crate with the door open when we are home. The cold and snow have definitely been an adjustment but his coat is very thick now and he loves leaping around in all the snow we have gotten.
Lego has made a huge difference in both of our lives. We feel so lucky that we found him and have you two to thank for that. I am spreading the word about Homeward Bound around because everyone who meets him says, "I have been looking for a dog just like that! Where did you get him?" He is a terrific dog and already a part of the family. He loves all of the people and dogs we have introduced him to and the fact that he is so well socialized is amazing. We have been doing our part to keep him exposed to new experiences but it is easy to see that he got a great start with you
