Feathers, Fur and Fins

The fosters are doing well. Rocco is not adjusting to them so well, he snaps at them and growls a lot, but I think that is because he is just a grouchy old man. Also, the fosters are very high energy, at least Axl is. Lola is more calm, but Axl is just a ball of energy. I have decided to do some training with them so that their forever family doesn't have too hard a time with them. Because of Axl's energy levels I'm thinking of doing some very basic agility training with him. I don't have time to join the agility club or anything like that, hopefully he'll find a home and won't be here all that long, but I did some with Nala and I think I could do some basic stuff. We, of course, need to start on sit and stay. The boy can jump and that's what I want to channel. I think if I hung food from some discount chandeliers he would try to jump up to it. So I want to channel his energy and I think agility might be the ticket. Walks are not enough for this boy. Walks just get him amped up. I will probably have to take him to the dog park every couple of days to blow off some energy. Lucky we have a really big yard for him to race around in.

Okay, I have to get ready and go to the Pet Expo again today.
