Well, King George has arrived at his new castle! Of course he has to share the throne with our own greyhound Casper (aka "Toolbox" - Covered in Snow's brother).Right off the bat the two dogs took well to each other. George had the expected "nervous pacing" for the first day but has calmed down and seems to be adapting quite well. He has settled in faster than Casper. He was a little nervous the first night here, but he slept through the second night without a peep.
Our three children all like George, and he does well with all of them, especially our youngest. They have given both dogs plenty of attention and they love it. George is a very playful, fun loving and affectionate companion. He's certainly very tolerant of a "busy house", as is the case with the 3 kids! He loves to be with you and both dogs get excited when we come home.
He is an eager walker and loves to be outside. Everyone has commented on how beautiful and soft he is.
George has taken well to going up stairs which he learned on his own. We are working on going down. A great start! We've started clicker training (Thanks Jennifer!) and he seems to be food motivated so I expect he will train well. Stay tuned...
We've crated him when going out and even while we're here and have had no problems.
Great start for a wonderful dog!

King George! He sure looks like a king on his throne. I'm sure Casper loves the company. BTW: I was the one who brought Casper to the kennel on his hound haul. ;) George has an awesome dog to learn from.
