He's just a lovely dog who wants to get to other dogs to play. He needs more socialization.
You can see from the video that he has no aggression towards Tag, even though Tag was not so nice to him.
He had a lovely time in the end playing with them all.

'Twas one of the best sights in the world that greeted me when I entered HQ following a very dull, (but thankfully short!), Residents Association meeting - Lurchers at play. Calm it certainly wasn't, mayhem it definitely was! & Boris was loving it.
Life in the home-kennel today will seem very dull to him, but at least he has another vet visit to look forward to.

I took Boris with Barney to the Vets today for his second vax. Little Isla came too for the ride.
I waited outside the Doctor's surgery whilst Barney had his flu jab, so I took the opportunity of walking Boris up and down. At first he tried to pull, but the technique of "no", and changing directiion quickly and taking him with me a few times and he was healing by my side.
Today I took them in the volvo estate. A little whinge at first that he was so far from Barney, and then quiet all the way. And not a noise all the way back. He didn't wince at all for his vaccination and wagged at Catherine the Vet and the vet nurse. Another couple of boxes ticked.

Yup, he was indeed very well behaved - he's making me prouder of him daily. He weighed in at 24.5Kg, & there's not an ounce of fat on him.

He does need a foster home soon. Barney only offered temporary fostering for the lad, and he would love to be with a pack to run and a garden to run in.

[quote author=" Mimsmum " He does need a foster home soon.

As Jenny says, Boris would flourish as a pack member - he adores my two girls, & is forever attempting to initiate play sessions with them, but he fully accepts his position in the hierarchy with no quibble.

he's a really handsome boy and sounds like he's playful too. I hope someone is able to take over the fostering from you soon Barney so that he can get to stretch those legs at full pelt!

he's a really handsome boy and sounds like he's playful too. He sure is Christine, & his preference seems to be to play with other hounds or with humans. T'other day I carried out some serious housework & came upon Bertie's squeaky bone under a bedside cabinet. I offered it to Boris, but he politely declined to play with it. I'll mebbe get him a fluffy cuddly toy during the week, & see how he takes to that................

I wish he could come here, I just don't think Jethro would be as accomodating as Barney's girls. When is Boris being neutered?
