Just jealous I saw them first lol
. Seeing Macks photo on Renburys website haunted me. It is so good to see him in a loving caring home for his remaining time. Heres to many lovely day together.

Well some good news for Mack this morning, he started his anti inflammatory/pain relief medication yesterday and he seems much more comfortable this morning. His bad foot/leg has gone down a fair bit so it seems that the meds are going to help. However, on the not so good side he decided to wake me up this morning (talking to me at the top of his voice - hilarious) at about 5.30 am (much earlier than his normal get up time) and head for the front door - am sure he wanted to go for another road run! He has also worked out (clever boy) how to open the kiddy/doggy doors in the house with his nose. But, rather than barging through them (like some of my others do) he actually puts his nose in the edge of it and opens it towards him - see, he's not just gorgeous he's also very smart!You can see his new fur growth pretty well in the photos. He still has a baldy patch on his back and around his face/ears his hair is a bit thin but it is certainly growing in those areas too. He is starting to show what a handsome boy he really is. I particularly love the pic of him sitting at the top of the stairs - looking so handsome and happy and if he's the king of the world!
Interesting to note, the day I picked him up he kept pulling out all the treats out of the dog treat stand at the vet - even tho I bought him a packet to eat! I realised yesterday that he didn't go near them (although did want to socialise with the other dogs coming in) which would tell me his tummy is full and satisfied!!!
Thanks for all your loving thoughts and comments about my Mack (or is it our Mack?). They helped me through a couple of hard days so I could get back on the job and focus on him, not on my own sadness! He is off to the groomers again today so will be happy about that, not for the bath itself but because he's already the local shop owners' favourite down there and everyone comes to say hello to him and pat him, usually before I can even get him out of the car!

Magnificent! Those pack pics are gorgeous - seems like he's always been there.
From the earlier pics posted I thought Mack looked like a German Shep cross, but now he looks 100 per cent Belgian Shepherd - is that what you reckon Cathy?

Not sure myself but I'd be interested to hear what others think. I've never seen a full Belgian Shepy except in pics. I love the pack pics too, the other dogs treat him as if he's always been here and in fact, are quite respectful and gentle with him. The most interesting one is my wolfy cross boy Wally who has been quite dominant with other adult males but actually protects Mack and watches over him in the back yard. My pups love him too and he had a play with one of them this morning - it was so cute.

I'd say he's all GSD and a very gorgeous one at that. The bi-colour isn't common, you see it more in working lines
Thanks so much for rescuing him and I hope you have a long time together with much happiness

Thanks ish, yes he is gorgeous and it's interesting to hear about the bi-colour and working lines which I don't know much about at all but will certainly check out now.
