First update from his new foster home:   “Guinness is doing beautifully. We have begun calling him MacGuinness since his stay with us. Mac is one smart cookie. He has learned how to go in and out the doggie door in just a few short days and loves to run around in the fenced backyard. MacGuinness also seems to be getting along with my daughter's dog. Both play outside in the yard but we have yet to have both inside close quarters. We want to take everything slow.   Mr. Mac loves the car. We actually left him in the car by himself for two short periods of time; both instances were where we could watch him to make sure there were no signs of him being being distressed. He did great! We will gradually begin leaving him in the house alone for short intervals while we are out in the yard.   Mac hears many sounds that are different than the city and he is puzzled at times but adjusting well overall. Did I tell you that he talks? Very definitive and pointed. It is not a whine nor a bark. We talk back and forth and have interesting chats.”
