Happy, cheerful Divo.
Today it's exactly three months since we collected Divo and brought him to Hoevelaken (near Amersfoort). He is doing very well in his foster family! He is always cheerful, eats like a docker, and always wants to play - with a chewie, a ball or something he stole (a sponge, a brush or something).
Yes, he's black and he's big (although not very big, the size of a small Labrador). He is very muscular, but his body has to work very hard to compensate for the loss of his right leg. It doesn't bother him at all that he is missing a leg. It's no problem. He runs and play-wrestles just as hard as the other dogs in the foster family. And what's so nice about Divo, he can walk anywhere nice and loose it (where this is allowed of course). He is friendly to every dog he meets. And if a dog is not nice to him, well then it just slides off him. He goes quiet in the car as he knows he is going somewhere. Preferably to the dog beach, because he loves water.
Divo stays in the utility room with another dog when the family is away and also at night. Then he is quiet. He loves a chew bone and gnaws away a very large specimen in a short time. Of course, he is sometimes a bit boistrous so he might not be ideally placed with small children, although he does have a giant love for everyone he meets. Only cats are not such a good idea, because he doesn't really get on with them.
Actually pretty strange that no one has fallen for Divo! He's a really a nice guy in home care for much merriment. Come visit him in Hoevelaken and get to know this superb dog.
