Hi! I'm Ilford!  My foster family calls me Henry.  Seems silly, but the little boy in the house thought my name was Ill Ford and wanted to know if that was like Henry Ford.  Henry kind of stuck. But, I'm sure you will find a great name for me.  I'm bigger than most of brothers and sisters, but I'm just a big ol' baby.  My foster mom says I'm the most snuggly, and love to be held and cuddled.  I love to run and wrestle with my brother and sister and the two big dogs in my foster home. Two of my favorite toys are tennis balls and ice cubes!  I love to play in the water and will do anything for a good belly rub!  I sleep in my kennel all night long and don't make messes, but I'm still working on housetraining. I know I'll figure it out with some more practice.  I've mastered stairs and love to run outside to play.  I'm really smart at knowing "sit".  Even though my brother bounces all around when it's time to eat, I know my foster mom won't put that bowl down when she says sit until I do it!  I'm pretty sure I can learn all kinds of other commands lickity split!  I'm working on other commands like "off" and "kennel up".  I'd love a chance to be a part of your family.  I'm great with kids and dogs of all sizes.  I've never really met a cat, but I don't think I'd have a problem with them.  Please won't you give me a chance.  My mom says I have the sweetest little eyes.
