More than anything I'm a dog lover so thought I would introduce them. Some of you have seen Joey (the one with the teeth) so I'll start with him.
I found him a couple yrs ago while I was working, wandering a busy intersection. I was afraid he'd get hit by a car so I tossed him my work truck and took him home. I did all the usual things, put up flyers, ad in the paper, checked and posted at Vets & AC and checked for a chip. He's a very good looking, intact, Rat Terrier so thought for sure someone would claim him but no one did. He ended up being perfect for my high energy Boxer-mix so I kept him. He's about 14lbs, smallest dog I've ever had, and has a typical Terrier attitude. I figure him to be around 4yrs old now. A good dog, very happy here, fun and has endless energy. Not a dog for a small home...... needs a ton of exercise. His only issue is we cant show anger towards him. It causes fear aggression ... I think the previous owner may have been a bit rough with him. But he has learned to trust us and while he'll still "complain" if scolded he doesnt shut down and hide anymore.
This is Bo my American Bulldog.
He is 9 yrs old and I got him out of rescue when he was 2yrs old. His conformation isnt a great example of an Am Bull but I really dont care. He is a really good dog. I saw him sitting in a crate for 3 mos at the saturday adoptions at our local pet supply. I remember feeling bad for him because he wasnt a very remarkable looking dog and thought he was going to be hard to place. We had lost a Bull Terrier to kidney disease and 5 weeks later our Am Staff died of cancer so hubby went to check out the dogs. He came home telling me about some dog he really liked and wanted me to go see the dog. It was Bo ... the dog I didnt think would be adopted anytime soon. I smiled when I saw who the dog was and knew it was meant to be.
He is a very sweet dog, really mellow and thinks everyday is like going to Disneyland. Even when he went thru both knee surgeries he thought the ortho and techs were his best friends. He loves swimming in the pool and his morning hikes. Just a good boy ... cant ask for any more than that.
