Anvik update with lots of pics

[Glacier]

Anvik got his first off leash time in the big yard today--first time in a month! He was pretty happy!

First time I've seen him bounce around. He jsut started giving hugs again too.

Notice he has yet another new coat. The orange one is in about fifty pieces! He has no fur on a very large section of his left side and it's very cold here. When he's outside he has to wear something or he'll get frostbite!

I just love how happy he seems in this one, even though it's really a picture of his butt!

Deciding what to do next. He almost looks regal in this one. If you knew Annie, you'd know that regal is not something he is!

Hanging out with Mac. Mac wanted to play chase, but seemed to know he couldn't play rough with Anvik yet.

Two more weeks and Annie can start doing some harness work again. He'll be very happy with that. He hates being left behind! Not sure how I'm going to get him to stay outside all day again though. He's pretty comfy in the house!

Alright!!!! He does look thin, but the joy is obvious! He & Mac look very handsome side by side. They both have such looong legs! Beautiful sunshiney day, too!

Must admit - the Bat-Dog Cape looks pretty good! :D

Happiness is being allowed to RUN again without being <tied> to Mom!

Hey MOM!
Do we have any Furr Grow we could <rub> on my side?
;)

[Tollers-n-Dobes]

He looks like he's having so much fun! He's such a beautiful dog; I'm so glad he's feeling better now. :)

[Dorothy39]

Oh Goodness Glacier , the lastest pictures of Anvik are so welcomed here!!!!

He's so handsome , and I'm so glad that he is doing soooo well!!

(The Bat Dog Cape :D )

[Daisy and Delilah]

You're looking great these days buddy, like you feel so much better! Love your new jacket--it's very stylish. You don't seem to like the costumes too much do you? Oh well. Who does?

The new camera is taking wonderful pictures Tamara, with lots of help from you of course!! Beautiful shots. I have always had a soft spot for Mac and Ozzy. Mac looks so majestic and wise in that picture. Taking care of his friend and making sure he doesn't get hurt. Awww!!! Good boy Mac!! :D

[ramanth]

It's great to see Anvik up and around!! I love those long legs of his. :D

[shais_mom]

I'm so glad he is feeling better!

[Ginger's Mom]

Great pictures!!! He really does look happy. :) LOL @ Earle, I can just see him shaking his head and thinking "kids". :)

[lizbud]

Not sure how I'm going to get him to stay outside all day again though. He's pretty comfy in the house!

I'm glad you mentioned that. I was hoping Anvik could become a house
pup. Any chance of that?

It's good to see him looking so great now. :) I'm glad he was able to get
some fresh air in the yard. Looks like he enjoyed it very much.

[chocolatepuppy]

It's great to see Anvik doing so well and 'bouncing' around! :D

[Lori Jordan]

He looks 100%Better,He looked like he was having a ball.

He always has been a house dog more or less. He's always had to sleep inside, in his crate. He does his death scream at night if he's outside--only noise complaint I've ever had from a neighbor was the first night Anvik lived here!

None of the dogs except Sleet are in the house when no one is home. Sleet is old and failing. She is no threat to the cats and doesn't cause any trouble when unsupervised. Everyone else spends the day outside until I get home from work. Anvik has been spending his days in his crate. He's not good with the cats so he can't be out of his crate and unsupervised. I keep him leashed to me sometimes or he hangs out in the cat free computer room with me. Eventually, he'll need to start spending more time outside. Given our weather forecast right now and his lack of fur, he'll be crated during the day until at least mid-April.

[lizbud]

Oh ok. I had the idea that Anvik did not get to spend his nights inside
the house normally, but since his injury, he did stay inside nights. He looks
like he would make a great couch potato. :)

Anvik, buddy, glad to see your outside and bouncing around again. You really do need to quit shreadding your coats though sweetie, while it might be fun, you really need to WEAR them for now. I've had frostbite, it's not fun. Now be a good boy, eat your snacks, and wear your coat.

[Vela]

So glad to see him up and bouncing around lie he should be. Thanks for sharing those pics with us.

[pitc9]

Oh it's so nice to see him bouncing around!!
:D
