My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

It took two days to gain the trust but here's the end story. One of our fosters works at the Pathway of Life Church for their private school. She called me on the 2/18 about this little boy that suddenly showed up. He would walk around the entire building looking in the windows. I went out to see if I could get him but he was very distrusting. I decided to go the next morning with Velvet to see if he would follow her back in the van but as I was trying to leave he chased the van all the way across the parking lot. Every time I would stop he would lay down by the van. He finally went back to the building and I was able to leave. The next morning I took Velvet. He loved her and again wanted to get in the van but just wouldn't. I decided it was trap time so borrowed a trap. I went back out that afternoon and set the trap. I was standing right by it and he went in. However, as he stepped on the trigger pan it started to move so he backed right back out. Even with fresh burgers in it he would not go back in so for the next hour and a half I set with him on the sidewalk. He let me get closer and closer until I finally reached out to touch his foot. As I scratched his foot he looked at me and rolled over so I could scratch his belly. I did this for a while and finally was able to scratch around his neck. That's when I pulled out the slip lead and used it to play with him just a little. The next time I scratched his head the lead was over my wrist and then over his head. I picked him up and put him in the front seat. Not only did he ride well he kept leaning over and kissing my arm. For lack of names I called him Milton. He's a very sweet boy
