SIMON UPDATE!!!!!

Simon's Foster Mom Writes:
Simon continues to improve daily; he has learned to tolerate the touching of his head, ears, mouth and neck. He is learning how to "Play Gently" with other dogs of all sizes AND he no longer grabs her arm when she places a collar around his head & neck.
After being placed on a proper healthy diet, Simon has gained 10 lbs. His ribs and back bone are no longer protruding and he has gained the muscle mass he lost due to malnutrition & lack of exercise. Grooming time is no longer painful for Simon.
It has been an amazing experience watching Simon grow into the beautiful fun loving Afghan Hound he was meant to be. When SImon first came to live with us, he did not trust humans and was fearful of the world. Today, I smile as I watch this amazing boy, happy and at peace in the comfort of a safe home.
Simon will do well with someone who understands that he is still in the learning process and who is dedicated to helping him conitnue to blossom. He is a big boy and requires alot of exercise.
If you would like to be considered as Simons new FOREVER home, please fill out our adoption application and submit it by Fax to: 1-650-364-1957 OR you may e-mail it to: afghanhound911@sbcglobal.net.
