Thank you Heather.
They do look very similar.
Ditto
I think that we all feel like that. That there is something wrong.You’re saying what I am thinking
I get fed up with it sometimes and I just stay away for a while. But it just seems different when Adam does it.
Champ says Dogs rule, Cats drool.
What a nice picture! This is the color and pattern I've always loved with the Pits. Sort of like Michael J. Fox's dog in Homeward Bound, except it had more white.
On second thought, he looks nothing like him. Amazing what your memory does as you get older:
I'll bet he;s not even a pit!

The dog from homeward bound is an American bulldog, but if my memory serves me I believe his name was champ too!On second thought, he looks nothing like him. Amazing what your memory does as you get older:

I just took in 2018 Rescue #56:
Another male. Where the heck are all the female sulcatas? This one had to be given up because a German Shepherd had become protective of the female head of household and wouldn't allow the tortoise near the lady. He had grabbed ahold of the shell just above the tortoise's head (you can see a roughness) and wouldn't let go. The lady squirted the dog with the hose, but he kept going back and biting the tortoise. She says the dog tortoise relationship was ok until the tortoise came too close to the lady.

If it was me the dog would of had to go! Bless your heart though @Yvonne G for doing what you do.
It would be a toss-up for me. I'd have to figure out a way to keep both. I LOVE my Misty-dog. I LOVE my tortoises. To me the obvious solution is to not allow the dog to have access to the tortoises. Oh well.
Yeah, I have a good translator.
Looking forward to your new thread and pictures of the new pond.

It's such a shame, especially from a long term perspective. That sulcata could live to see many generations of dogs (hopefully from a distance).
I have to wonder if it's a younger dog, too... Just coming into his own, reaching full size, trying to solidify his place in the pack.
Maybe Tom has a tortoise safety training program for canines? Seems like there's a market for it.
Beautiful and curious. That`s a typical view of a redfoot.
