No, not this Linc (although, how cool and old school was Mod Squad?! And what a cool name for a dog!)
But this Link, our newest foster.
We were told he was a relaxed, laid back, easy going boy. Famous last words. He is anything but. He is a great, affectionate, funny guy but laid back isn't in his description. He is the type of dog that will be lying in the living while you are in the kitchen. You open a cupboard. He jumps up, runs into the kitchen full speed, sliding the last 15 feet until he body slams up against your legs. He then looks up at you and says (his face is very expressionable as you can see from the above picture :-)), 'huh, huh, what's going on?, got something for me?, whatcha doin'?, whatcha got?, let me see, let's do something, lets go, go, go, go, take me with you, take me anywhereeeeeeeeeeeeee......!'
He was in a foster home in Fl. and he already has a new permanent home lined up so his stay with us will be brief. He is on the smaller side for a male, especially as it seems all the males are so big now. He is pretty scarred up, nothing particularly heinous but just lots of little ones. Makes sense if he charged his way through his kennel life like he does here at home LOL. And both his ears are gnawed but he is a real pretty and sweet boy. His family is going to be lucky to have him.
The local group met the haul down in Pennsylvania and brought Link and 3 other dogs up. We gave them a few minutes to stretch their legs and take a potty break in my backyard.
My two were very curious about the strangers in their backyard!

Link looks like an active grey! Do you deliver to Iowa? :)
OMG, love the photos, especially Linc's close-up and your two boys in the doorway, LOL! I bet they were dying to come out!

One reason I like to read your blog is that our minds seem to work similarly. I was thinking Linc "Mod Squad" too...heh! Have fun with the foster boy. He looks like a very nice dog.
i can feel him rubbing that muzzle on your shoulder. we have to use the wire muzzles on walks (working on that, but BCC is slooooow) and every walk starts with the rubs.
he's handsome. i miss fostering. i loved watching them morph into respectable house dogs from goofy hypermatroids.
