This time last week Rook was at the Malamute Rescue facility in Staunton, VA.  He came to DC in the afternoon last Monday.  Just a recap of events….

• Rook is adjusting to the noises of a “big city.”  He is still very intrigued by buses that go by, but is no longer startled.  He still does not like construction zones, so we will try to avoid those, though in DC, that is hard to do :)
• Rook has learned that it is fun to chase cats, squirrels, and rats.  I doubt he has seen many rats with his previous owner, but he certainly is up for chasing them.  One minute you think he is marking a tree and the next thing you know he is lunging for a rat you see scurry across the street.  While I think most will agree that cats and squirrels should not lose their life to a dog, I doubt anyone would complain if there were a few less rats around DC.
