    I've been busy...

    ...and haven't had too much time to post because of these big feet:

    The rest of him is big, too, and getting bigger every day:





    His name is Demon, and he's a Borzoi puppy - 8 1/2 months old. He's from a hoarding situation, and was semi-feral when I got him, but is making good progress transitioning to home life!

    Excellent what lovely dogs but boy do they grow big, I met someone once who had two of them and they certainly take up a lot of room. I know what thats like as I have a Newfoundland who is a big boy too.
    Always nice to hear that a canine friend has been given a new chance of a happy life. I hope that you have many happy walks together.
    Kind regards- Simon

    Fantastic! Good on you for getting a dog out of a bad situation and offering him a loving home. In my experience, borzoi have incredibly sweet dispositions. I don't think I've ever seen a black one. They must be pretty rare.

    I want to give him a big kiss. What a pretty dog. You've foudn my weak spot. The bigger and softer the dog, the better! Thank you for rescuing him. I think hoarders mean well with their animals and they hurt so bad when they have to be taken away, but hes much safer with you.

    Congrats on the new addition! Thanks for rescuing him, or vice-versa.

    I had dogs since I was a kid and never realized how big a hole there is without one until the last few years. Our previous labrador died of old age and we waited until after we moved to get another. Longest year and a half in a while.
