Carol Johnson called me from the Friends Of Homeless Animals/RI rescue group in Arkansas this morning, she told me she took Bud in for his first heartworm shot – he will not be feeling so good today – and he was calm and unafraid and had no anxiety around the male veterinarian.

Carol thought he was afraid of men at first, but she said he showed no fear towards the male vet this morning. There will be s second shot in a month and then an evaluation period and then Bud will head up here. It was very good of Carol to call me, she  is keeping me posted.

I am impressed with FOHA/RI, they are easy to work with and very diligent and caring.

They even care about me. And they are taking wonderful care of Bud, who was a wreck when they came to him. They have some pretty appealing puppies up for adoption.

Although Carol is based in Arkansas, they operate throughout the Northeast.

I am grateful to Carol for keeping me posted. Can’t wait for Bud to come, but will  have no choice. He has that Boston Terrier look. He is beginning to remind me a bit of Gus.
