Welcome Tiny Tot!

I love the intro posts. Here's what one of our BML'rs posted on August 9th.

"For a while now we've been bouncing around the idea of adopting another senior boxer boy. I have been talking with a fellow BMLer  about applying to adopt from FL Boxer Rescue. I was in the process of doing just that when someone mentioned I call Tiny's foster mom and talk to her about him. After a couple of calls we made the decision to adopt Tiny...and yes, he's had that name all his life:-). We brought a very sweet brindle boy home last Sunday.

Tiny had lived his whole life with a military service member. A move, second wife, and new baby had caused Tiny to be put into rescue. The day after getting to the foster home Tiny had cluster seizures. The vets think he has a brain tumor. He's been on phenobarb since July 4th and as far as we know has been seizure free. I guess unless they are wrong Tiny may not be with us for a long time but we knew that going in. We'll keep him comfortable and happy and love him for however long he's here.

We're all still getting to know each other and so far it's going well. He and Macy have enjoyed a few chases and wrestling matches in the yard but right now it's just too hot and humid to let then really go at it. I sent a photo to maybe get him on the blog.

Tiny came with more information that most rescues. Not only did we get medical records going back to his first vaccines we also his reg. papers that tell us today is Tiny's 8th birthday! Happy Birthday Tiny Tot!!!"

So here he is and welcome to Tiny!
