Jules,
I thank you also, he is so wonderful, I know that he and keyote are
meant to be bud's.
Well they are sure a pair. My foster dad who lives with us is half
blind and can't tell them apart. Dad and Ranger gelled very well.
We sat out side in the yard and let the boys run. They played well and
ranger has marked his boundary. Every tree and corner post in the yard.
Keyote showed Ranger the ropes. I think that Ranger is going to attach
himself to my sister Kathy who lives with me. He has been following her
around and loves the sound of her voice. This is ok with me, but we
aren't sure how her cat is gonna like it yet LOL.
No prob tho. She is the oldest in the house and knows how to bring about
peace and is a good welcoming committee. Our Lil Bit (toy pom) has set
him straight and he not only appreciates it but is more than willing to
accept her as the mistress of the house.
So for a first day we are doing quite well. Ranger did try to charge
Keyote's dish as he was eating his dinner, but a well placed rolled up
magazine smacked on the counter between them had Ranger thinking that he
wasn't supposed to do that. I also must tell you he took his pills for
me with out a hitch. He love peanut butter, and the pill sticks to it
;-) What was that old saying about a spoonful of sugar makes the
medicine go down? Well I think they should have said Peanut butter.
And he was willing to share the peanut butter spoon with Keyote after he
got the pill down.. One lick for Ranger and one lick for Keyote.
Strange how that helped him learn to share. So all in all I think it
was a very good start to a very long familiy relationship.
Thanks again

You will be happy to know that the meeting between Ranger and Keyote was a
smashing success and I had no concerns at all about letting Sally Jo take
him with her today. I am confident that Sally Jo is more than capable of
handling the integration process once she gets Ranger home. Ranger was
somewhat reticent upon the initial meeting, but Keyote broke him down with
his playful antics and soon the two of them were romping and wrestling
together. Ranger left us sporting a beautiful new purple halter and jumped
easily into Sally's SUV where he and Keyote hung their heads out the same
window as they drove away. Ranger is such a love bug and I am so pleased
that he has found a forever home that will provide the companionship that he
craves and the acreage that will accommodate his high energy!
Let me know if there's anything else I can do to help...
Jules
