Lincoln!

Lincoln is such a sweet, amazing boy and we are so blessed for him to be a part of our family!
He is doing so well; he adjusted VERY quickly and has deeply bonded with all of us. He loves my boys and loves when the daycare kids are here. He’s so excited to greet them each morning!
He loves to play fetch with tennis and soccer balls but wasn't too sure about the frisbee. :0) Also loves taking walks out in the country or in town.
He is doing well physically also; he has had only one mild stomach upset and slightly pink ears since we brought him home and he is now totally on a grain-free diet. His first visit to the chiropractor will be this Saturday.
We are working on his training here at home and are signed up for Obedience Level 1 at the local Humane Society, starting in September.
The only “issues” we’ve had to work on is when we first brought him home he could not go down our stairs. He had no problem with the deck stairs but could not go down from the upstairs to the main floor. My husband had to carry him downstairs the first four mornings but then he got the hang of it and now he flies down like a pro. The other issue that we’re still working on, is that he so desperately wants to play with our cats and lunges at them most times they get within his reach. He’s doing better and I’m sure we’ll get to the point, soon, where they all can be in the same room with ease.
Thank you so much for helping to make Lincoln a part of our lives and for all you do for the animals waiting for their forever families! Staff at the Burnett County HS are all blessings to so many people and animals and we appreciate all you do.

I’ve attached three photos and as you will see, his ears are starting to stand up!
