Description
Mr. ADHD will tear around wiggling wildly until you start to put food in his bowl. Then, he will come to a dead stop, his head resting on the chair with his bowl, until you pick it up, then our 15 month old GSP goes back into ADHD mode.
We're SLOWLY getting some fat on him. Like Pete, who was also far underweight when he first came to us, you have to fight the urge to "force feed" the weight onto them as it can cause problems as they mature.
Also used the camera on the phone for this one.

Oh they are all ours and they are part of our pack now--we aren't just fostering them.
I lost Jagermeister (my GSP) to cancer about two years ago and Paula lost Davey, her English coonhound about a year after that. Davey though, was 17--ANCIENT for a large breed dog. We used to joke he was the "Keith Richards" of the dog world--already dead, but unaware of it (grin). Coonhounds normally would be in the 11-14 range as far as lifespan. Jager was 11 and should have lasted 14-15 if the Cushings and ultimate cancer had not taken him.
After losing four rescues in three years (two to cancer and two to old age), we decided it was time to get a younger pair to get some overlap. We have been looking for a while as we knew we were going to lose Harley (black dog in the gallery) as he was diagnosed with Prostate cancer last summer. It was somewhat amazing he lasted as long as he did (March of this year). Prostate cancer is 100% fatal and usually kills teh dog within a few months of diagnosis.
Taz, on the other hand was a bit of a surprise. I came home ten days after we had to put Harley down and found him on the kitchen floor, still warm. I hypothesize it was a severe stroke. Taz was 19 at the time--which smaller dogs can get to that age.
It is good to have a Coonhound and a GSP back in the house again. Jenny has discoverd her voice--even though she can't hear it. She was born deaf, so we are learning sign language and teaching her basic commands around signing we found on the 'Net.
