Wow! I am now 6 weeks into my recovery. I have recovered fully from my kennel cough bout and only managed to spread it to 2 of the other dogs in the house and 1 of my cousins (Oops!!). My hair is starting to really fill in now and I think in another week or two, I might not have any bald spots left. I think that everyone's prayers and the great vet care that I received have helped me get through this difficult time.

Some of you may have noticed that I have a very exciting addition next to my name on the GLWR website that says "Adoption Pending." My foster mom says that good things come to those who wait and I think I have been patiently waiting for a new family. In a week and a half, I will be traveling with my foster mom to Michigan to meet my new family and sister Lucy. They are traveling over 600 miles to meet me. I can't wait! My foster mom shows me pictures and tells me all about them.

I will sure be missed by my foster parents. They say that I am one of the most charismatic, loving, brave, and sweetest dogs that they have ever met. I will miss them too, but they reassure me that I'm getting the opportunity to start over and have a better life.

I'll update everyone again after I meet my new family!

With love and kisses,

Leo

Whew...what a week! I'm finally able to go out and run! My foster parents took me to the dog park this week and to my foster grandma's house to run and play. I thought we were just there to chase birds though. I had so much fun playing and seeing all the other dogs. I really like birds though. I had one on point through the bathroom window the other day. I would have got him too if I had been outside.

So here's the bad news from this week: I have kennel cough now. Mom says I should be fine in a couple days but I'm sick of coughing. No more playing for me for over a week.

My foster parents say I'm the calmest Weimaraner they've ever met. I'm a little shy around strangers but am starting to get used to new people coming over. I am just so full of love and want to cuddle all day long.

Thanks for everyone's get well wishes! I'm doing great!
