Joe: 11/1/17 - Getting acquainted

Hi it's Joe,
It's been a few days and I'm slowly getting used to retirement.  I stayed in my kennel during the festivities last night and I was just fine with that. 
I get real happy when the leash comes out.  I know it means I get to explore outside.  I love the outdoors and all the smells and sounds.
I got a yummy treat tonight.  The foster parents call it "chicken".  I call it delicious!!  I was very pleased indeed.  I had to share and I took the treat so nicely from my foster mom's hands.  She gave me praise for being polite. 
I am still working on those inside stairs. My word there is at least 15 of them!  I can go down just great though.  
More to come on my adventures!
Love, Joe
