Leo Does Doggie Summer Camp!

Bobbie sent an update on her former foster Ambrose, who is now known as Leo. Leo originally came into rescue as an owner surrender because of his extreme storm phobia. It took a bit of work but his mom and dad report that he rarely even reacts to storms at all anymore and has turned into a very happy and self assured little boy.

He recently spent a week with his former foster parents at Doggie Summer Camp on Lake Harding while his family went out of town. Leo arrived at his old foster home, threw down his bags, greeted the three resident dogs and hopped right up in foster mom's chair. He had a great week zooming with the residents who clearly remembered him, participated in brisk games of "Diving for carrots" in the kiddie pool, went boating on the lake and spent a good bit of time lounging around the grill while foster dad cooked. His favorite activity of all was playing with his buddy Meatloaf. He looked just beautiful and is clearly happy and well loved in his forever home. Foster mom and dad hope he will be back for the camping experience next year.

Here are Leo and Meatloaf enjoying a boatride...that's Leo on the left.

Bobbie also spoke with Rooster Cogburn's mom (was hoping they'd make it to NY for crap) and she said he is absolutely perfect! He has settled in, seems to realize he has reached the end of the road and is in his forever home, and her whole family adores him. She said he is soooo happy to see everyone who comes through the door. They apparently have a busy household and he loves it.

Rooster is special to both of us - I pulled him from the Jax shelter and he received excellent medical care from Drs. Jones, Waters & Staff here in Jax; Bobbie expertly fostered Rooster!
