Shadow came under SLR’s wing via a local rescue we work closely with. They had taken Shadow in at the request of a vet who had been asked by his owner to put the healthy young lad to sleep for no apparent reason.
Shadow looks to be no more than about 12 months old, & is in good condition.
He is affectionate towards both adults & children, & gets on well with other dogs.
Shadow has a very playful nature, very much in accordance with his presumed age - he played with Annie for most of the three hours or so he was here this afternoon.
Shadow is not yet neutered or microchipped – this will be rectified at the earliest opportunity.
He's a lovely little lad, (sorry, didn't measure him, but he's smaller than Winnie), who is currently being fostered by John & Viv, with the assistance of Jack & Honey.
Anyone interested in offering Shadow, (his original name, to which he answers), please contact either Jenny or myself.

It's early days yet, but I can't see why anyone would want to get rid of him, let alone put him down.
He's been told off a couple of times by Honey for encroaching on her space and peed on the landing once. He's had a bath.
He's 19 1/2 high to the shoulder and adorable. Pix to follow with a reassessment as necessary.

Oh wow. He's a tiny one. Thanks John and Viv for stepping in so quick as I was just leaving home. See, you don't need me I'm sure he will be snapped up. He is so loveable. ;D

It's taken most of the afternoon to upload my pics to Photobucket. It's my first uploads for some time, so it asked if I wanted to use the bulk uploader. As I was also adding other pics, I did. It decided I needed a newer version of Java. That downloaded, then it went to the Sun website, which suggested I get an even newer version of Java. The computer hung, I think because I agreed to download the Google desktop tool and it monopolised my memory while it indexed my files. Reboot, rehang, release of tension through the use of Anglo Saxon. Anyway, here are a few shots of Shadow. He was chipped yesterday and weighed 13.8 kg. Compared to our 2 at 25kg, he's as light as a feather and a poppet. Here come the pix: He moves He's cute He eats He sleeps He was bathed He sleeps again He sees himself on screen Mrs DADI is smitten Honey less so He will make someone very happy as a companion and playmate.

Lovely piccies John. I met up with John and Viv for a walk this morning with Tag and Megan. He is every bit as scrummy as Viv and John say he is. He has a little temperament to die for. I can see him excelling in agility. Did you see that lurcher lean in the video ;D

We picked Shadow up from the vets about 5 pm. He was still a bit groggy, but pleased to see us.
He needs to go back on Monday to check his stitches are OK and then back in 2 weeks for his second set of jabs. As from 10 July he will be what it says on the tin
Chipped Neutered Vaccinated De flead and De-wormed.
Form an orderly queue.

A queue is forming But it needs to be a bit longer for us to get it exactly right. There is a lovely lady interested but we need to see if little Shadow is cat friendly.
