Best Tricks:
The girls both knew "gimme 5" when Zim joined us. He didn't catch on for quite a while, so as a joke, I said, "Gimme 4" -- since he has no dew claws. He did it :) so now that's his trick!

Arrival Story:
We saw Zim in the neighborhood, after a neighbor picked him up as a stray. A week or two after we met, we saw the neighbor and asked how it was going. He hadn't been able to cope with him, and sadly had turned him into the pound. We visited him every day until he could legally come home with us. He was about 1 1/2 years old.

Bio:
Zim had never been an indoor dog. He had been tied to a tree for a year and a half -- had never been in a house, a car, walked on a leash, and was fearful of people. Especially women. He had a lot of social and emotional needs, as well as the physical. He couldn't/wouldn't eat... and basically had given up on life. His coat was bleached and broken.... he was a mess! We worked on getting him to eat, medical care, and socialization. Stormy helped us teach him the rules of being an indoor dog - and Amber taught him how to love and trust. 5 months later, Dave adopted us, and it would seem his function is/was to teach him how to play! :) He's come a LONG way, and is a delight!
