Dinner was gone in seconds,  so fast I double checked how much I was supposed to give him  ::) I guess he liked it.

I will have to find something for him to play with, he doesn't seem interested in anything I've tried him with  :( after getting bored with bouncing up and down he took himself off to my favourite chair for a nap and he's been there all night.

Try stag bars they are not so much a toy but a chew that lasts for ages my dogs love them and it keeps them busy for hours. When hes used to hiss surroundings though you will probably find he will start playing but at the moment hes far more interested in his new home and all the new smells :)

When my daughter runs out of toys for her dog she rolls an old tea towel and puts a couple of knots in it.  It's a Great makeshift toy and a way of recycling as well.   ;)

He's beautiful!  Hope he settles in really fast.

Don't worry too much about the playing - most rescue dogs take a few days to feel secure enough to play.  Even if it takes longer, as long as he is happy, I don't see it as being an issue.

He is lovely. :D

 My dog doesn't play with toys much either - he just destroys them, particularly squeaky ones so I only get him the cotton ragger toys that he pulls apart.

I've ordered him some squeaky kong tennis balls but we had a bit of a play with the kong today, trying to shake it to death  ::)

His harness should arrive tomorrow so we can go for a walk in the park  8)
