Indiana Bones Glynn

Indiana Bones, call name, Indy. Born 11/7/2010 he was very well socialized in his litter. His family took him home at 8 weeks old and did a great job of continuing his socializing, training, & grooming. He was taken to training classes, slept in their bedroom, and had lessons every day. He loves kids, other dogs, cats, fetching & cuddling. He has had positive contact with horses, goats, chickens, sheep, cows, and the outdoor world. He walks well on a leash, is crate trained, mostly potty trained, knows sit, down, off, leave it, lets go, heel, wait, OK, kennel, and more.

Unfortunately one of the family owners developed a very bad allergic reaction to the puppy fur and Indie had to be returned to the breeder. We saw the note on Facebook along with the very cute pictures and began the family discussions.

We headed up to see Nacina this weekend, with Tundra in tow. I think we were all a little surprised that Indy wasn't really a puppy anymore. Maybe in age, but, those paws, wow! I think we are looking at a 80-90 pound dog a year or two from now. At 45 pounds, he is well on his way already. We had a great visit and I think even Tundra decided she could deal with a new friend, so after a couple of hours of hanging out, we loaded up everyone, including our newest family member and headed home.

He is everything a golden puppy should be - a face that is so beautiful you just want to kiss him, an inquisitive nature that incents him to be involved in every family activity, a highly social nature meaning that Tundra now has a perpetual playmate (even if she was not asking for one), and smart such that he understands what you are asking him to do (but may not choose to do it)! Parker fondly remembers him as the blue collar puppy that he fed when we went to help socialize the puppies in November. Conner has taken to helping with the training including introducing a clicker to him, which if we follow this religiously may even allow us to do further tricks like jumping through hoops!

He sleeps through the night, wakes up with enthusiasm to start his new day, loves to eat his food and treats, and wants to play play play. All in all we are thrilled to have such a great new family member and we are savoring every moment as he grows!

Now the real fun (or is that work!) begins.
