Since the passing of my beloved dog Kobie late last year, I've been keeping an eye out for a suitable friend for my dog Sophie. Sophie requires a companion of just the right temperament and understanding. Goofy, playful, funny-looking and loving were the things she adored about Kobie, and when I saw Alan, I knew she and I would like him.
A 2-year-old flat-coated retriever mix, he had been taken in by the kind folks at My Loveable Rescues in Queens, NY, more than a year ago and needed a good home. On Saturday we drove out and met him.
Alan and Sophie quickly assumed an attitude of peaceful coexistence. I knew this was a good sign, and that with a little time and opportunity, they would become tight companions. And so I returned yesterday, completed the adoption and took Alan to his new home on my horse farm in New Jersey.
So far Alan has paced every inch of my house non-stop. He loves the
outdoor time we've had and came out of his shell to play a little
this evening. He is sweet and affectionate and attentive. I'm hoping
he'll start to calm down and get comfortable tonight, but
realistically I figure that could take some days or even weeks. Alan is fairly deaf and pretty high energy, so my next step is to start training, and I think I'll enlist an experienced trainer since I haven't had any exposure to deaf dogs before. I have no objection to crating but have never had a need for it in the past. I think Alan may be a dog who finds great security and comfort in a crate during his transition, and I'll probably set out to borrow or buy one tomorrow.
It is always amazing to see how pets change and flourish once they get into a stable home, and I'm anxious to see Alan's transformation.

Hey Jared - we love to think of Alan with you. We all got fond of him while he was with us. I am especially happy to think of Alan living the good life since I pulled him from Animal Control. Bless you for your patience and loving attitude towards a dog who is a bit of a challenge, but a good soul.

Hi, Jared. So you got my buddy Sophie a friend. That's great. I am going to try to get out to see you and them soon.
Nice job Jared! He's very handsome.
I'm so glad you picked Alan. Please keep us updated on his settling in.
Hi. My name is Amanda and I am so amazed at what you would do for your lonely, friendless dog. I really think you have made a wonderful choice by doing what you did! You are definitely a hero and a role model to your dog and to many others. Good job!
