Well. The boy don’t like bathing:

It was a struggle getting him in the tub. Actually, it was a struggle getting him in the room. Whole lotta “Nope, nope nope….” Had to shove him by his butt. Should’ve had him go to the low-boy stall that I used to bathe Jethro.
Next time.
The adoption center said it would be a few weeks for him to warm up. It was a few hours that he got used to me. I think at dinner he realized he won the lottery. I give them a few slices of boiled chicken with their kibble.
But today, it happened:
That’s what I wanted to see. The two playing. They did that for a solid fifteen minutes.
He also chews stuff.

Caught him eating my hat. I may straighten it up, put it in the dishwasher, then go back to wearing it. He’s not horribly destructive. Seems to be a situational thing.
He’s a lot less clingy, and is starting to spend more time outside sunning himself, rolling in god-knows-what, and chasing squirrels with the girl.
I’ve even heard him bark once or twice.
Big Girl does not likes baths and taking her to the pet place to do it is a real chore so now it’s just a bucket, hose and shampoo deal in the driveway. Which ends up meaning no baths for 3 months or so over the winter.
