    Thanks again.

    I am trying to distance myself from him.
    If I knew for sure I was keeping him I would be sitting in that bathroom right now while he slept!
    But... I just want to leave him be, not that I want to leave him alone, just that I don't want for me to get too attached him (and him attached to me)
    When we got home we were playing with him every hour and letting him out for a run. He is not a fan of toys but he loves toilet rolls :rolleyes:
    Now that I don't have vaughn here I'm just letting him out for toilet breaks and a quick play.
    I'm feeding him a small amount of food each time as I don't know how long ago his last meal was.

    Shazzy, that pup is so lucky to have found someone like you to rescue him.

    Out of all the porches he could have found he found yours. He really is a lucky little guy. :)

    You'll figure it all out, I know you will. :)

    Thank you danielnoahsmommy :)

    He just came out for his little bit of play time.
    Took him outside and he weed straight away, told him he was a good boy and brought him back inside...
    Didn't think about the fact that he might need to poop!

    All over the floor.

    Whatever he has been eating, it wasn't good!!

    Sorry to share that :p

    I know you already know this, but remember, you don't know what food he was on before you found him, so he will have an upset tummy with the food you're giving him now.

    It will pass.

    I guess it already did. ;)

    Yep, it certainly did pass all right.

    I may have given him too much food :o
    I have only been giving him little bits at a time but I guess it added up. We bought special puppy food before vaughn went to work :o

    Again, sorry for the details, it wasn't runny, just a little soft... and stinky!

    It'll go away, he just needs to adjust to the new food.

    You haven't smelled stinky until you've been around Indy. When he poops he clears the room, forget about the toots, those are nasty, they have flavor, it's bad.

    Oops. TMI! :(

    It's something that can only be experienced, trust me.

    He's a sweetie though, even if he is a stinky. ;)

    Once he pooped on your floor, he's home to stay.

    Haha, yes, he has officially marked it at his own...

    Then I mopped the floor with disinfectant and Brody came in and peed all over it... :rolleyes:
    So I disinfected it again... we have a very clean floor now!

    Yup, I think Tax is there to stay.

    Welcome to the Shazzy household Tax, don't poo on the floor too often though. ;)

    He's gone :(

    We called the RSPCA (shelter) to find about all the details of fostering, and they told us to bing him down to be scanned for a microchip. We told them we had our vet do it but they said they had to do it for some bs legal reason... it was late in the after noon so we told them we would be in the next day when they opened.
    Anyway, we went down the next morning (today) as soon as they opened and when we walked in this lady came running up to us screaming "labbie, labbie, oh you found him!"

    I wasn't thrilled.

    Apparently the reason he was so skinny was that he had "problems" (she didn't specify what) and that he was on a special diet.
    She goes to the same vet as me so next time I go in I might throw a few questions at my vet and see if he can answer.

    Still not happy about the fact he had fleas and that a 4 month old puppy was out roaming the streets but not much else I could do.

    She seemed to love him and he was happy to see her so he isn't abused. I just wish I knew what his "problem" was.

    I didn't even get any photos because I didn't plan on him being taken away so qiuckly!
