Hey all! My fiance and I just picked Floyd up from the Humane Society on Saturday and got to know him over the weekend. Evidently he was found by another dog owner that couldn't take him in. The guy spent three weeks trying to find his original owner without any luck.
Floyd seems really happy to be in a home again... I'm assuming he had one before since he seems to be housebroken already. Today is his first day alone since we've gotten him, so there's some separation anxiety on our part (I think he'll sleep!). I'll be checking on him during my lunch hour, but shouldn't he be fine from about 6:30 am to 3:30 pm in his crate? What about water during that time? I figured the first couple days I'd take him out during lunch, but I can't do that on a consistent basis. Any and all advice will be greatly appreciated!
And now, Floyd:
After his first meal.
This picture taking is going to be a regular thing, isn't it?
Doing what he does best.
Thanks all!
