Katie, hiding under the chair |
The other day I was driving on 8 north, on my way to pick John up from work. There was a jeep on my right. In the passenger seat was a beautiful grey Husky sitting with a seatbelt, bobbing his head with the wind. That sweet pup made my day. He was so happy to be driving along with the wind in his hair.
I have been blessed with some very awesome dogs. They make me laugh at the silly things they do. They have very different and interesting personalities.
First there is Baxter:
Then we have the Crazy Neurotic Riley
If he looks terrified to you, well thats just Riley. We rescued katie from the pound in September of 2004 in July of 2005 she had a litter of 7 pups. John decided to keep one when he saw Riley. We have had him since he was seconds old, he gets rigid if you try and pick him up. He whimpers all the time. If we could harness the energy from the wagging of his tail we would not have to pay for electricity ever again.
Next is Sasha. Sasha is the orneriest dog I have ever met. She is a Vizela Mix that we rescued.

She is our biggest weighing in at 50 pounds, she is also the cuddliest. She will lay on you and wrap one leg over your chest and nuzzle her head under your arm. Vizela's are extremly smart, she is a problem solver, if she wants something she figures out how to get it. She causes chaos and destruction if she gets bored. Luckily she has Katie and Riley to chew on.
Next and finally is Priscillia.
Pricillia is one of Katie and Baxters pups. We had given her to a friend when she was a pup. After 6 years we were asked if we would take her back because she was aggressive. In the year we have had her I have not seen her be aggressive. She is very timid and shy. She needs to be rubbed and loved alot. We are looking for a home for her. If we can find an older couple who are home alot and have another dog. She has never been an only dog and will need to have company. She needs alot of attention. She will come over na lay on my chest and thump me with her paw until I start rubbing, and if I stop, I get thumped and licked until I start rubbing again.
She is very gentle and sweet.
I never wanted to have 5 dogs, I don't want to have 5 dogs. I will never again have 5 dogs.
They are funny and sweet. They make me laugh, and comfort me when I am sad. They may not be my children but the good thing is if they get mad at me they can not talk back and yell at me. And I can send them to their cages.
