Feral pups: Chinook & Jared

On occasion we get feral pups, and if they do not get help right away, sometimes they never get tame.

We sent out two feral pups to Matt & Susie at ARVSS on Saturday January 15th, unsure of the outcome. Karen had dug the litter out of a hole in the ground about 3 weeks ago, and the outlook was not good.

Here's the update we got today and we are very happy and hoping for Chinook and Jared.

CHINOOKUPDATE FROM ARVSS:
Hey Karen,
Gotta tell you this story! I went to bed at about 10:00 last night and woke up to our older RLRR foster barking???

Realized Matt was NOT in bed and went downstairs to find him--he was sleeping on the kitchen floor with the two feral pups all curled up next to him!

I left him there----Had LOTS of room on my bed :)

Susie

JAREDFURTHER UPDATE:
We have named the nameless one Jared. We have taken about three trips out into the back yard and he started to play with the other puppies--and even came back to me for treats :) It was good to see his tail up and see him run across the yard--it is a very good start.

Chinook (by the recommendation of our dog behaviorist) is with our Foster Judy--she also has Jasper. They should both do well there.
