He's Here! Cletus!


Recommended Posts

When I knew he would be ours, I couldn't wait to introduce him. He's here now. :yay From a high-kill shelter in GA, sprung by a lab rescue group that works with a local chapter, 13.4 yo Cletus got on the hauler last Thursday and arrived at his foster mom's in NY late Saturday. Sunday was our M&G and home visit, and today was delivery day. Welcome home Cletus. Glory boy. After all he's been through, he is such a HAPPY dog. His tail has not stopped wagging except during naps (when he's snoring :lol ). :gh_bow The campers have welcomed him and he's been exploring as tho he's been here forever. He can't hear worth a lick lol. Please welcome Camper Cletus!:wub:

ETA: It's the funniest thing ... the shortest distance between two points is a straight line, right? Even if that means point-to-point routes underneath a greyhound :rofl

I suspect there will be 6 Roooers. He looks like the type who might end up leading the chorus. :lol

Milo welcomes another floppy-eared hound to GT.  We'll call him a (cough cough) lurcher if you want.  You can tell he has a bright, sparkling personality.  Welcome, hound dawg Cletus!

If ever I were to make a road trip to meet a houndie,  this would be it. Trouble is,  MsJan might end up with a couple more campers..............

Maybe instead of Dewey we should all just show up at CG and surprise Ms Jan. :rotfl

Promises promises :lol Y'all should come!

Earlier today on the Camper Cam, I caught Cletus upside down scratching his back (tail still wagging) before he ended up in a full-fledged, maintained roach :lol:yay He's the best and I'm so proud of the other campers for welcoming him. He's eating/drinking well, seems to be housebroken, slept through the night, after breakfast he put himself back to bed, he's just a love. Oh, and his poop is 10 star, lol. Who knows how much time we have, we never know, but we will try to keep Cletus comfy and keep that beeg smile on his face and that HAPPY TAIL going.

Cletus :wub:

Oh, Cletus, I am smitten too!  What an endearing face, and kind eyes.  You are so lucky to have landed with Miss Jan.

And Jan, bless you for giving this deserving guy the most wonderful home in his later years.  No wonder he is roaching already!
