Well, I guess Pwnzor inspired me. I went to look at a 6 month old German Shepherd puppy that was clearly a neglected dog. He was severely dehydrated and 15 pounds under weight and doesn't have any muscle on him at all. The poor little thing hasn't been house trained, didn't know any commands or even his own name. He was so weak he couldn't even jump up to get on the couch and was no where near able to climb the stairs by himself.

Of course he came home with us.

So we've changed his name from Max to Osce short for Osceola, the Seminole Indian warrior chief. We've had him almost a week and with regular meals (5 very small meals a day) and lots of water, he's coming around. He can get on the couch by himself now and loves playing with Moose, my Malinios. He can't play long at any one time but seems to enjoy having a playmate. Osce even made it down the stairs by him self this morning. We've had two days in a row with no messes in the house. He seems to have already started the bonding process with me. He asked to be put in the bed last night and slept laying against me most the night. He's starting to show affection to all of us. I have high hopes for this dog.

Look at those ears! I bet he can hear the future.

He's a fine looking dog, and he'll always appreciate that you rescued him from a hellish existence.

Good on you, sir!

"Look at those ears! I bet he can hear the future."

LOL! Great on ya, Zane! I always love seeing those stickers... "Love can't be bought, but it can be Rescued." Like Matthew, now you'll have to keep posting pics and progress. You can see the smarts in that guy's eyes. +1000 on Frisbee dog training! (You too, Matthew!)

"Bob Barker"... LOL, what a great name! I love that old man, used to watch The Price Is Right regularly. He's always been a critter advocate, spay/neuter booster.

Osce had a good day today. He's learning how to play and had figured out today that milk bone can be eaten.

I'm enjoying this little guy more and more every day. He does like being an indoor dog. He'll go out side to hang out with Moose but he seems to love A/C. I'm right there with him.

I don't have any doubt in my mind, I've struck gold again.

Osce got his first raw hide chew stick (a chewie). He's in doggie heaven right now.

That’s a good story for Friday night. Welcome to the Badweb dog family, Osce!

BTW-his namesake is buried at Fort Moultrie on Sullivan’s Island, SC, near Charleston. I’ve visited him once or twice.

Hughlysses,

You probably already know this but the Seminole tribe is the only tribe that never signed a peace treaty. It could be said we are still at war with the Seminoles, never having resolved the 2nd Seminole war.

Someone got up on the couch all by themselves and decided to relax

Osce has come a long way in one week. From having to carry him to the car to him jumping up on the couch without help. The little guy is a fighter alright.

I'm getting really fond of this dog already. He's gonna be a great companion.

Nicely done, that's a good boy right there.

Plus you have the added bonus of being able to receive HBO for free using those giant ears.

"You are blessed..."

That's the truest statement I've heard in a month. Blessed in to many ways to list. Osce is just extra sweet icing on the cake...

Important news flash!!!!

Osce was able to climb all the way up the stairs just now. I went up to the office to do a quick task for work and when I turned around there was Osce. He's getting stronger every day.

Osce loves playing Moose and it's clear Moose is loving having a playmate. Osce will play with Moose as long as I'm there but if I leave the room, Osce starts looking for me. He is becoming my constant companion and to tell the truth, I'm loving it.

How's the pup doing? I hope he's getting stronger and is happy.

I bet he's as loyal to you as any dog has ever been to anybody!

Osce is doing better than great. The vet said while is is still underweight, he is no longer emaciated. his energy level is way up. He's put on 15 pounds so far. Its amazing what regular food and water will do.

He and Moose play really well together and even though he give up 45 pounds to Moose, he does pretty well holding his own in the mock combat/general chaos.

Osce has starting following me every where, just like Chief used to. Of course I'm loving that. He's really integrating into the household well. He's about 85% house trained now and seems to be really smart. We haven't done any training yet since I wanted him to get health and feel secure before we expect anything of him.

All in all, Osce is doing as well as I could dare hope. He seems happy.

Osce is still pretty scrawny but he's getting better every day.

You're right, he is all ears and legs.

Fine looking BFF there Zane -

My house is empty, had to board my cat while I make a road trip to Texas.
Already miss him...
