First day out of the shelter.
When he found his new bed. Buddy laid down and slept for 10 hours.
==============================
First week
He has patches of bare skin. Weight 98 pounds.
Buddy had no interest in dog food. He may have been on a junk food diet.
Only after I started adding ketchup would he eat.
Dog treats are also of no interest.
==========================================
Dog park visit
At the dog park he is overwhelmed by all the smells.
=================================================
By the end of August his weight down to 82 pounds.
He now prefers dog food. When we first started walking at the
local park. He was not trusting of people. After meeting the same people
he started coming around. Now he wants to meet everyone.
