We received the following photo of Nibi this morning from Peggy of Home At Last. The sweet boy apparently thinks his new friend Gretchen makes a wonderful pillow :)
There is definitely truth to the saying ... a picture is worth a thousands word. Nibi, the peace and calm on your face says it all. And thank you Gretchen, for watching over Nibi and providing him with a safe place to rest :)
On Saturday, 2/16 we received the following from Peggy: "Nibi had a great past few days. On Thursday he
went to work at the Wildlife Science Center and spent some time glaring
at the mountain lions and wolves. Friday he stayed at home with Megan
and played outside with dogs for the
first time! It is so fun to watch him gain comfort every day. He greeted
me and Mark at the gate enthusiastically when we got home, and took my
hand in his mouth for the walk down to the house...his way of holding
hands. He will go back to see Dr. Dave this week. I think his medical
team will be thrilled to see how well he is doing."

ReplyDeleteHi Slone. Thanks for your inquiry. Leech Lake Legacy transports dogs and cats from the Leech Lake Impound to our partner shelters, rescues and sanctuaries. Nibi was transferred to a sanctuary where he will spend the rest of his days. Thank you for considering a rescued animal, we wish you all the best.
DeleteHow sweet! My dogs have liked to hold my hand that way, too--all were/are shepherd mixes. Glad Nibi is doing better. Any updates?
ReplyDeleteIts as like as couple. So sweet!. Very friendly atmosphere. Nibi is great.
