Zach
Zach

Zach is adjusting very well with us.At first Happy tried being sulky,then slightly growly,as Zach also was,but I've been working with them to correct this behavior.They both came around and Bashful,as always,is easy to get along with. After working Wednesday, we came home to three anxious dogs. We take all of them out at the same time,I take Zach and Happy, while Terry takes Bashful and I think this has helped them to get along better.When I took him to the vet, I saw one of the techs first,Lois,who I got Happy and Bashful from. Since she raises Chihuahua's she was a big help how much to feed Zach. Dr Peterson checked him over and said he was in great shape.Although she was taken by surprise when he growled at her,she took it in stride and laughed it off.We went into town the next day after we got Zach to get smaller toys for him to play with,of course everyone needed a new toy.The first night we had him,I was throwing some small squeek toys and when Happy and Bashful chased after the toys,Zach only watched,after throwing a few times more he started to chase also,but he'd stop about halfway,as if wondering what to do if he got the toy.Well not long afterwords he was getting the toys and bringing them back to us,as the boys do.We now have a large bag we keep their toys in and when it's playtime 'they go through the bag and like little kids until they get the toy they want to play with.(I can't seem to teach them to pick up the toys.) I'll never understand how anyone could have neglected him. He is fitting in here so well.I also got the Heartguard and Advantix while at the vets for him and he now has his own VPI ,Pet Insurance. Sorry it took so long to get back to you. I can't thank Robin,Rowe,your family and you Heather for bringing Zach into our lives,he is a gem,so loveable and it feels like he's been here since we got Happy and Bashful thanks! Heather
