Bello goes to Granny's house

Bello and I went to Granny's house for a visit so he could meet his Granny!

While we were there we hiked on her place to see how Bello did off leash. 





While he did run ahead he never went very far and constantly turned around to make sure I was still with him. He would come to me when called and go about his business exploring!  During our exploration he met Granny's horses


I wasn't sure how he would re act but he and Cheyenne became fast friends! Even sharing a little nuzzling! This made me very happy as this is a place we will spend a lot of time! Next Granny adventure will be to our family place in Junction where we will see how he handles the deer coming up to the house to feed and drink! (we don't hunt the place any more so the deer tend to come right up to the porch!)

Bello's Adventures continue

As of today Bello has been with me for 25 days! These 25 days have been such a joy to watch him adjust to his new home and see how quickly he learns! The fact that anyone would get rid of him just amazes me because he has been nothing but a joy since he has come into my life!


We start every day with a cup of coffee on the back steps and watch the sun come up! I know I have only had him for about a month but I can't imagine life without him now! 

Bello's obedience training is coming along nicely. So far he sits, stay, lay down, shakes (both paws), come and doesn't run off when he is off leash! We are still working on heeling but I don't think he's doing bad for a month under his belt!

He has had the opportunity to meet and greet several other dogs 



That belong to friends or are fosters as well as many random dogs at the local parks and has done very well with no signs of aggression or aggressive behaviors! I am so proud of him! 

When NaKoda passed away I didn't think I would get another dog. I figured I would probably just foster from then on out but deciding to adopt Bello has been the best experience and I look forward to the journey we are sharing together!

Meet Bello (formerly Munich and then Amos)


Meet Bello! He is a 3 yr old German Shepherd Rescue from http://www.dfwgermanshepherdrescue.org  I adopted Bello October 22, 2016.  

Bello (formerly Amos) had a brief profile

ABOUT AMOS

Amos is a three year old pure bred GSD. He prefers women and children, but comes around to men with time. He came into DFW GSR scared out of his mind. He barely let us touch him. Now he is an overly friendly, goofy, playful boy looking for a home of his own.

We are looking for someone that has experience with the German Shepherd breed. Someone that can continue to socialize Amos and keep him well adjusted.

Amos is great with other dogs, small or large. 



Bello did very well on the 2.5 hr drive back to our home and we immediately explored the new yard! He appears to be a very high energy, playful boy and I am excited to welcome into my home/pack! He is going to keep me on my toes!
