My name used to be Lysander
But I am now called "Monty"
Lysander was a grubby yellow dog, one of hundreds at Chicago Animal Control - but something special just showed in his eyes.

| I was just thinking about
you today! We now call Lysander...Monty. He is settling in wonderfully and
Jake and him are inseparable at this point. We started dog training three
weeks ago and it is going really well. I was a bit worried because he can
be a bit nippy around dogs he is not familiar with, but he has not shown
that behavior in class. He no longer shows protective-type behavior with
food or toys and has learned to share quite nicely. At first, he was an
attention hog, but even that has subsided and he is learning to wait his
turn for affection instead of jumping all over everyone. He is very smart
and has learned how to get the lid off of our so-called dog-proof garbage
container, so we have just moved it to a higher spot where he cannot reach
it. He can be quite the devil! I really believe it was the right decision
to bring him home; he seems to be a good match for everyone and is a
wonderful addition to our family. He happily runs around our yard chasing
birds or any other poor unsuspecting animal that may have wondered in. I
have attached two pictures, they are a bit blurry though. I will try to
send you a better picture once one becomes available.
Take care, Janet |
