Week 1...

Zachary's stay with us started on February 9, 2008. It was funny how he ended up here. We were all loading the van with dogs from the day's Meet & Greet at Petco (in the Arboretum). Everyone was in except Zachary. I asked the director (Deborah of Forgotten Friends), where he should go, since I didn't see an empty crate for him to ride back in. She just looked at me with that, take him with you I don't have any room, grin on her face. I caved and said okay.

The first step for him coming into the household was introducing him to our pack, Ray & Rascal. They were fine and just sniffed each other. The week continued with a lot of sniffing, learning boundaries and playing. We learned that Zachary does like to chew things that he shouldn't sometimes. We have been redirecting him to the correct items in which to chew.
