Cuz
Wizard found a new best friend in the house to play with. A green "Good Cuz". They squeak like crazy and I catch him playing with it all the time now. He absolutely loves them. Here he is with his Cuz:
Back on the kennel issue. I left Wizard out of the crate when I left the house twice this past week. Once for 20 mins and the other for 1 1/2 hours. He did AMAZING! Not a single peep out of him, he just went to the dog bed and laid down. What a perfect cutie.
He really loves life out of the kennel and has zero separation anxiety at all.
Some dogs are just happier out of the kennel; Lucy hated the kennel from day one and I raised her from an 8 week old pup! I forced the kennel for a year before I completely gave up and declared her the victor.
Those were just tests to see how he is outside of the kennel, I still kennel him(and feed in there) just in case his new owner wants to kennel him.
Wizard has been with me for 2 months and he has been an absolute gem.

Sounds
Wizard has a silly array of sounds that he makes. He grunts in bed when he gets comfy. He snorts on walks. He pretends to hiccup. He teeth chatters when I'm prepping food. I like to call his form of teeth chatter "motor-boating."
Turn up the volume to hear it:
I also catch him puffing his cheeks daily. It is a mild example in the video, but usually when he is laying down and does it, it is very audible.
Wizard is close to being a perfect dog. The only issue is that he cries/whines because he doesn't like the crate. I crate him everyday and he is vocal, but he doesn't poop or pee in there. If I leave him for more than 5 hours he does start to destroy his bedding. I have left him out of the crate as a test for 10 mins when I quickly ran to the gas station and he did perfect( he went and laid down on his bed the whole time without a peep)! I feel he would do great and be much happier out of the crate in a dog-proof home since he has not tried to destroy or eat anything, no counter surfing attempts and he has greyt potty habits.
I really love having him in the home, he is such a fun foster.

Wild Weekend
Hello, Wizard here doing a post about my weekend. Foster Mom opened a mail package and gave us each a green gator to play with. I did my usual 3 min play session with it and then ignored it while the weims went crazy. Then the gator decided to take a ride on me!
And then the craziest thing happened, it attacked me! And Foster Mama did nothing to help me!
I was so embarrassed for not defending myself...
But Foster Mama made me feel better by baking yummy doggy-bone shaped cookies for me.
She wanted me to share the recipe:
Cheesy Dog Bones
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 cup shredded cheese
1/2 cup milk
1 tablespoon butter
Mix everything, roll out to 1/4 inch, use extra flour to prevent sticking, cut into shape with cookie cutters, bake at 350 for 20-30 min depending on oven and thickness.
I hope you all are having a wonderful Mother's Day. I am happy to have a Foster Mommy... Will you be my forever mommy?
Foster Mama want to say something:
He did end up teaching the alligator a lesson...In the wee hours of the morning, Wizard hacked up an alligator leg! Thank goodness it came up.

Bed Head
Wizard continues to come out of his shell and I've been catching him pick up toys several times a day. He only plays with it for a couple minutes though. I feel horrible that I don't have soft squeaker toys in the house, but the weims *cough* Lucy *cough* destroys every soft toy instantly... Even with that in mind, I decided to order some stuffing less toys for them (especially Wizard). Can't wait for the delivery.
Why do dogs like to sleep with their heads off of a comfy bed? Wizard is the master at this. These beds are huge(30X54) so there's plenty of room, and usually he's the only one on them since the weims prefer the couch.
There is a whole wall of dog beds in the bedroom, yet he still chooses to put his head on the ground.
And a non bed fail
