Tebow - Page 6

Tebow's hair is growing.. no question now..  I watched as little sprigs popped up here and there - a very few of them.   The patches on his hind legs are getting bigger and he has these strange "lines" here and there on his back of black hair growing among the frizz... I brush him often.. he doesn't want to be still very long, but I make him sit and let me brush him.  It keeps the frizz from getting matty looking, and I'm hoping it stimulates the growth.. don't know for sure if it really helps.

I started the Longevity (Springtime.com) a few days ago and I do think it is helping.  His pep is increasing.. he is like a puppy and running and playing as he should.   He is very smart and very trainable.. can't wait till spring when I can get him to the agility course and see what he can do.   In the meantime, leash training is going well.   It is snowing today and of course, he has to wear his coat - it is very cold out - 14 degrees today.  I have a deer skin, very soft, that my Dad tanned himself many years ago.  I'm going to make him a "dress" coat out of that... line it with flannel and add a layer of batting for insulation.. the hard part of making a coat for a male is obvious, and how do I cover that belly without getting in the way of potty activities.. lol.   But I will do my best.   I think the deerskin will be an awesome coat.

He's back in the wood box - thinks we bring those logs in for him to carry around the house.   Little dog, big log.   what a picture.

Starchar - your pic - your avatar - that is a beautiful dog.   My Mama German Shepherd Dog I lost in Oct looked very much like that only more black.  However, I noticed the fur around the neck - like feathers.. don't know what to call them.   Tebow has those - right now they are fuzz, but I am hopeful he gets real feathers like that.  Anyway, beautiful dog.

I posted an update on Dwarf GSD  and just came back here and saw these pics..my oh my.   I had forgotten how rough he looked when he first came here.   He now has a lovely full black tail.. only the very base of it is still a little fuzzy but no black hair like the rest of it.   He is so much healthier now that the thyroxene has done it's job for a few months.   He looks better, and is still that feisty GSD that is inside.   He has become the dominant dog for the most part.. but they do take turns, especially at night.. he doesn't like going out after dark.. a bit of a chicken...lol.

I often think about him and wonder how he is doing. Sounds like you are doing a great job with him and that he is a very happy boy. Job well done!!

thanks Blitzen.   He is PROUD!  My wonderful menagerie!


.. he's a wonderful boy...
