That was terrible and we were all at loss of our Brewster boy. So we went to the pound and adopted a chow mix puppy, which the boy came down with distemper days later. So we looked on petadopt.com and found a 2 yr old male, Chow/German shepard mix, he's so tempermental and playful, "What a teenager he is". We had a border collie that passed on from a stroke, so we adopted another border collie from a breeder, only thing is we think the breeder abused Buddy, because he is very timmid and will only respond to me and come to me, rather than my wife. Then we adopted a chywawa her name is cloe. And we Adopted a Papillon name Cole and last but not least we was givin Dante'. So our life is living and loving our adopted family members with all thier little problems that we get to try and mend, one day at a time. Seeing we were unable to have children, we have dogs and cats. Thier are some advantages to Pooches and Cats: they will never get: dui,drunk,drugs,crash the car,arrested,graduate from H.S., married, divorsed. The only thing they are here for is our best friends. When I'm lonely I just pick up one or more of my furry little pooches, and give them a big hug, and tell them how much I love them, and they respond with wagging, licking and lots of kisses. |
