We've Chipped - Finley's Brother!

The first week of December, we found out that one of Finley's litter mates was just retired and up for adoption. Finley's foster mom (THANK YOU LISA!) emailed me saying she was fostering Finley's brother....and she attached photos :rolleyes:

 

Needless to say, a week later we were meeting/adopting him. So...introducing our handsome (ginormous) boy Jax! (Okgo Cowboy Up)

As you can see, he is a very handsome boy :wub: . He's been beyond well behaved since we got him, too. He knew our routine by the second day! He keeps trying to cuddle with Finley, but Finley has to warm up to that first...we are working on it! Couldn't ask for two better dogs :blush

What a beautiful pair of hounds you have there! That is so great that you have his littermate. Our Augie has been here 14 months and still hasn't been allowed to cuddle with Ava unless they are both in our bed. It looks he is off to.a great start! Congrats!

How wonderful you were able to reunite them! I love the idea of littermates getting back together to live their lives out in the same home.

 

For three weeks we have been trying to line up to adopt Gus' sister once she retires, but we are having one heck of a time getting any of the people around her to respond to our inquiries. sad.gif We may just have to wait and hope she shows up with an adoption group in Florida (she's 4 1/2 right now & still racing at Daytona) and pray we find her before someone else adopts her. I have a wonderful adoption group here in Michigan trying to help us, and even they can't get the local adoption agency to reply to their inquiry on her.

 

I'm so happy for you (and the boys) that you were able to make this happen! ... and secretly I'm very envious! blush.gif

They are just cuddlebugs at heart with each other ;)

I really hope it works out for you - I'll keep my eyes peeled for an introductory post soon! :) We just happened to be really lucky with Jax because Finley and Jax both races relatively close in WV at the same track, and luckily, went to the same foster mom (who was awesome enough to think of me and notify me!) I'll be cheering for your reunion now, too!
