Rubin 

I am so very glad that Lynda & Charlie decided to let me stay here forever!!  I came to this house as a foster only; but
who could resist my sad brown eyes ! But I had a LOT to learn about being part of a family.
Rubin: young male Walker hound
I started off as a baby in a shelter in Southern Ontario and
was lucky enough to be adopted for the first year of my life.
But when I grew into my big-boy body, I guess I was just
too much of a handful & my family turned me back in to the
shelter where I started out. It broke my heart & I looked for
them for a very long time & waited for them to come back
to get me.  I'm was sure they loved me.
My second home was not so nice & they only kept me for a
little more than a month before they brought me back too!
I had a really hard time trusting  people after that...
they always let you down. They  said I barked too loud; that I
ran away a lot; that I didn't listen & do as I was told. I didn't
understand why I couldn't sleep on the couch anymore; and
I got so excited when someone actually wanted to play with
me, I didn't know I wasn't allowed to grab hands or growl.
I was just one big puppy, but sometimes people were afraid
of me (especially if I was grumpy).  I had a LOT of social
lessons to learn so I could fit in.  Now, with  a secure yard to play in and another hound to play with (Megs is my girlfriend!),
I can work through my "trust" issues.  Lynda & Charlie tell me all the time that this is my home now & we are a family!
I believe them !
