:omg: THANK HEAVENS! I've been on tenderhooks, checking every few minutes until I had to leave. I am sooooooo HAPPY about the outcome, what a little survivor he is already :heart::heart::heart:

Maybe Rox will like having a new little friend and convince his owner to adopt the puppy? :hug8:

I had to come check here again I dont think I could have slept without knowing the outcome. I am so glad he is alright it could have been so much worse. And that would be nice if Rox could have another friend. John :yourock:

It really couldn't have ended better!! 20lbs of food in 4 days!! :lol:I hope you are able to find a great home for him soon.

As for names, how about Faustus? It means "lucky" in Latin. Or how about Charlie? It means "free man" in English lol
Altho i also came upon Chauncey and fell in love with that name too... :lol:

You are our hero!!

I am so glad I was able to read this thread in one go. I am so very glad you have him, even if it is for just now. Forgive me if you already know this but he needs a good quality puppy food, similar to us not just buying supermarket cheap seeds for our birds.I am not sure what age they should go on to adult formulas, or adult raw diets etc, whatever way you choose to feed.

I like the way you think John!
Having a young dog for an old dog to have fun with! Works for me!:D:D:D
Thank you so much and also, your friend who is in trouble....at least he bought a BIG bag of food and left the toilet seat up!!! So there is good there somewhere! He was worried about the little guy or he wouldn't have told you about him....:hug8:

Having raised a little of pit puppies I know how full of love they can be and just how adorable they are. But oh my what a mess they can make.:D
