| Preston came to Col. Potter with terrible skin problems. |
Remember Preston,
the little six year old boy who came to Col. Potter last May suffering with
several years worth of skin problems?
Well, bye bye cone! Those itchy
days are gone, and Preston has now packed his bags and moved to Florida with his
wonderful Forever Mom!

I
arrived at Preston's Foster Home on Tuesday
afternoon and began the 'get acquainted' process with him. We played fetch with a ball; walked around the
block; I fed him his dinner; I looked
over some of the documents his Foster Mom gave me; Preston spent
the night in a crate in the room where I slept.

The
next day, we left Virginia
at 8:00 a.m. and got home on the dot of 9:00 p.m.! My friends all piled out to
come meet Preston, and he was good with everyone!
He was very interested in exploring his
new home! I said good night to everyone
and gave Preston his dinner right away - figuring
he was hungry!
I
set up his bed with the blankets and my “used” night shirt. Got out some toys, including the ones he had
in the car, and he settled right in. After a final walk around the block, I went to
bed. He decided he wanted to sleep with
me, so I let him - with everything being strange, he probably felt more secure
close by. If that continues to be his
choice, that’s OK with me! He made it
through the night just fine and we got up at 8:00 to take a quick walk around
the block and then have his breakfast. He
is currently sleeping in his bed next to me.
This
is one sweet boy! I hope his Foster Mom isn't
having 'withdrawal' too badly!
