Cooley
Hi Kathy,
Thank you so much for reaching out to check on little Cooley, "Fisher Freeman." We have had Fisher in our lives for almost a month now. It's been an eventful month. Had you of reached out to us 2 weeks ago we would have been singing a completely different tune then we are now... LOL
The first two weeks were very difficult for us adjusting to the puppy. Although we have adopted and raised puppies before, we have a 14 month old baby girl now, so it was a challenge getting accustomed to having a baby and puppy at the same time. There was one point where even considered calling to find a new home for the little guy because we were afraid we couldn't give him the love and attention he needed.
Now in the present day, this couldn't be more further from the truth. Fisher has adapted very well into our family. He is getting the hang of crate and potty training and also loves playing with his baby and older dog Bella. My wife Mara and I adore him and he has filled a hole in our hearts left by the passing of our beloved dog Charlie.
The only issue we are having with young Fisher right now is he growls and bites when you pick him up. He has also scratched the baby twice. We know he doesn't mean to do either thing and we have enrolled him in obedience school to try and curb this behavior. Other then that he is a true blessing in our lives and we are so happy we have him!
Attached are a few pictures documenting his time with our loving family thus far. I have captioned them each below. Thanks again for touching base and also for the wonderful work you do in our community! Let us know if we can ever help with tshirts, signs flyers or giveaways. We own a very large print company called www.WizardCreations.com and we give back a lot to charities in the area.
All the best,
Luke and Mara Freeman
