Robbie, Tatum, Toby...not really sure we know what his name is yet. As our friend Erin said he'll probably have to go to a psychologist because of multiple personality disorder LOL. He's fitting in with our family just fine though. He went to work with Brian Wednesday through Friday and fit right in...
He settled in at home too. Favorite spot is anywhere where we are! Funny story about his first morning home was that Brian got up at 5am to use the restroom because of the time difference and Toby lifted his head off of his bed and was like 'you aren't serious...it is not time to get up.' Guess he can sleep like his Daddy!
Case in point...lazy bum sleeping in Daddy's office.
He is like Randle....loves the couch and just being by people. Trevor is glad to have a doggie around too!
Ashley pretty much just likes to antagonize Toby but he puts up with it. She lights up just looking at him.
Before we forget, we named him Tatum because we live off of Tatum and if we ever move it would be a nice reminder of AZ. But when Brian brought him into work his co-workers said he didn't look like a Tatum and that Tatum wasn't masculine enough so the name hunt continued. Way too many to name. Some that Sara is remembering right now are Homer, Chip, Chewie, Wookie, Brewster, and RJ and probably 100 more that went back and forth while Brian was in AZ and Sara was in MN. Currently it stands as Toby because we like going to Toby Keith's bar and grill and one is going to open soon a mile down the road.
However, it became apparent that Toby wasn't doing too well. He stopped eating and drinking so we took him into the vet on Labor Day and he was there all day getting fluids through an IV, two shots of antibiotics and blood work done (his white blood cells were a little low).
They wanted him to come back Tuesday for more fluids and to check how he was doing (they threw out that he may have distemper...whatever you do, don't read about it!!). But we brought him home and it was good to have our family of five together.
He still didn't seem right though so we called his foster Mom Sherry though who was very concerned about him. She came to see him Monday night and after talking with the Rescue Group owner, they wanted to take him back to get well. They were pretty sure it wasn't distemper but more like pneumonia because he was sick (kennel cough) then got better then got sick. They have a breathing treatment machine that they can use that they felt would work.
So we will miss him until he can come home...they thought in about a week! XOXO Toby/Tatum/Robbie/Chip feel better soon!
