Laughing with Joy

Well, I made the 4-1/2 hr flight to my new home just fine. Here I'm showing my new dad how silly I can be and how happy I am to be in my furever home.

There Really IS a Santa Claus

He answered my wish and had the weather god's open the window for me to fly to my furever home. Just in time for Christmas. It was frustrating for my foster mom the past week trying to get me on a flight from Chicago to California, but here I am all ready to go.(don't cry mom, you gave me a wonderful home on my journey) I can't say thanks enough to everyone involved in saving me and getting me to this point in my life. I can say, I"ll be HOME for the Holidays! Thanks for the second chance. I'll never forget you all. Roo's and Wet Kisses! Rowdy. (my name is changing to Finnegan! how fun)

Snow fun

I enjoy playing in the snow and especially ruffhousing with Ali and Sienna.





Here I am just waiting for that perfect moment to pounce on Ali.

Home For The Holidays

Happy Holidays Everyone.

Mom calls me pip-squeak. I wonder why?

Having sweet dreams of my future.

Well, since the last posting, I have been adopted and will be heading to sunny California by the holidays. I sure will miss my foster sisters. We've gotten really close. And same with my mom and dad. I can't thank all of you enough and especially my name sake Rowdy that found me and made sure I was safe. Santa you made my wishes come true!

Chow time with the girls.

Keeping warm, but not sure it works for me.

Rowdy's Bark

Rowdy, as I mentioned before, has a raspy bark. I was able to get it on video to share with you all.

Sharing

It appears that my girls have accepted Rowdy into their space. Sienna, pictured here, never lets anyone share her space and although she probably didn't care for him to get on, she never said a word to him either.

Feeling at Home

Rowdy likes to talk, but it's not the usual Setter "roo". Also, his bark is very raspy which could be caused from damage to his vocal cords from possibly a choke chain or being tied out and pulling. It's more muffled than loud.



Rowdy is getting more comfortable each day and getting a little more freedom in the house too. Last night he was allowed to sleep with the others out of his kennel. He did fine all night. This morning he has shown that he likes and knows how to get the comfy seat in the room.

Surprise! I know how to get closer to your heart.

Rowdy's Playtime

Lady finally got me to play after trying for a couple days. Have to admit, it was fun chasing around with someone. Even Ali and Sienna got interested. Sit back, kick your feet up and enjoy the fun.

ACCEPTED TO THE PACK! Not bad for the new kid, since Sienna and Ali usually don't let them in at all. Sunday morning, Sienna decided to initiate play with Rowdy.


Maybe I should learn Agility. I saw this squirrel that really caught my interest. Well, a long story short, I jumped a 2-1/2" fence with grace. See if you don't agree.

Rowdy Loves ????

Could it be you? Rowdy is a loveable tiny setter boy that really wants to share his heart 4-ever too. He would love to be just like the teddy bears.

I could be your Star too.

My under bite is barely noticeable. And it doesn't stop me from eating anything.

I'm not a fan of kennels, but do lay quietly, if others are around, but....

I prefer to be like everyone else.

I'm a happy boy!
