Littermates...

Ruthie and Reggie are very close right now. They like to cuddle up together when they sleep, they love to wrestle and lay down and chew on the same rawhide. Usually it's recommended that littermates are not kept together--however, in this case I think it would work out if they would go to the same family. Both pups have been extremely nice with one another and I've not seen squabbles and aggression among them. However, they will also do fine if adopted separately. They will probably develop their individual personality more this way, as Ruthie will likely become more outgoing and Reggie---who is such a gentleman that he takes second place in getting cuddles from his humans, would likely get more attention. Both pups definitely have a sweet disposition.

Reggie Loves the Outdoors

Of the two puppies, Reggie is definitely the fan of outdoors. Reggie enjoys exploring the yard, wrestling with Ruthie or IBR foster brother Wills Jr. in the snow, or prancing around with a rawhide or a stuffy in his mouth. After some outdoor time, he slips through the doggie door inside for some timeout, rest and relaxation.

Reggie is a sweet puppy boy!

Reginald was born 9/28/06 and was surrendered with his sister Ruthann to a shelter in Kansas. Reginald is likely a Llewellin setter, currently weighs 30 lbs and will grow into a tall, stately setter boy. He’s all legs right now. Reggie is very sweet, playful and loving. He’s a bit more laid back than his sister inside, as he calms down easily after playtime and quietly chews on a rawhide bone. He’s very playful and enjoys stuffed toys, squeaky balls and tug-of-war games with his sister.
He loves to snuggle with foster mommy and daddy and buries his head in your lap to see if you’ve got time for some pets. He usually waits for you to invite him onto the couch, before jumping up. He’s also happy to sit in front of you for cuddles and slide down by your feet for a nap or to get his belly rubbed. Reginald is a very handsome boy with liquid gold-brown eyes. Pictures just don’t do him justice.

He loves a lot of outside time, romps happily through the yard, wrestles with sister Ruthie and other IBR foster boy Wills Jr and goes happily on yard patrol. He’s a little bolder than his sister when approaching strangers and readily helps announce their arrival, then runs up to greet them with a wagging tail and some puppy kisses. Reggie is a very smart boy and figured out the doggie door after half a day. He should be easily to housebreak, as he’s shown us that he loves to go potty outside. We do make sure to get him outside right when waking, after a meal, after vigorous play and usually every 45 minutes when we’re home, and he’s only had a couple of accidents inside. Great for a 4-month old pup!!

Reggie is easily lured into the crate with a treat and has been keeping his crate clean when we’re gone from home.

Reggie has arrived in foster care!

Reggie, a strutting 4 month old Llewellin puppy boy has arrived in foster care in Indiana, with his sister Ruthie after a long trip from Kansas and loads of dedicated volunteers driving both puppies across the country on two days.
