The Apartment 3 months later: Walter

Perhaps the biggest challenge of all was finding this sweet sweet bud. He was wandering the streets and we saw him inches away from getting hit by a car. We stopped, picked him up, and took him home. We’ve searched high and low for his owners, scanned him for chips, no such luck. He also had a crazy advanced ear infection and was bone thin. We’ve had him and had been fighting his ear infection for about two months. The vet had him on new ear drops every other week and he HATES having drops put in his ears. Finally, he kicked the infection and is healthy pup once more. He’s finally up to his lowest acceptable weight of 73 POUNDS and never leaves my side all day when I’m working. He has some major separation anxiety though, (he’s had some bad experiences in his four years of life) so we end up staying in more than I would like. He’s so big and really deserves a big yard to run around in, so we knew we couldn’t keep him and were looking for a permanent home for him. I can tell you though, his sweet steady affection for me and his OBSESSION with Josh has pretty much made me a dog person. I know. I know. After months and months of looking, we think we have finally found him a new forever home about 7 hours north in Oklahoma. The girl who contacted us has 3 other dogs, and lives on 5 acres. It’s going to be really hard to let him go. I think all my biological clock hormones have zeroed in on this sweet guy, he’s definitely become my “baby” during his stay.  In a few weeks Josh is going to drive him up to his new home in Oklahoma. I’ll keep you updated.
