Happy Vibes - Forum Dogs

The other thread about dogs made a little bit sad. Sad for Angry. Sad for the good Pits who get a bad rep. Sad for the bad Pits who've been neglected by irresponsible owners.

So, on a cheerier note. Let's see your dogs. I'll go first

Buzz was rescued from somewhere in Georgia as a one month old stray puppy. By the time he was 4 months old he'd been moved up to New York, adopted and subsequently given back. We were his second (and last!) family He's a good boy most of the time, but as a half beagle/half chihuahua with a dominant beagle half, he likes to let you know when there's something he doesn't approve of by barking. And he has quite the bark. When we lived in New York he used to howl when Ambulances went by like an actual wolf. It was very cute. He's calmed down now and is a total sun worshiper most of the time. He's incredibly fast but can't be off leash unless in a gated dog park or at the dog beach. His ridiculously acute sense of smell tends to lead him astray, otherwise.

Ernie had a much tougher life as far as we're aware. We fostered him back when COVID started from an LA City shelter and (of course) ended up keeping him. We were told he was 2-3 years old. He was a real street dog. Emaciated, ticks all over his ears, cuts, scrapes, bloodied and terrified of humans. He opened up in a couple of months as Buzz really taught him how to be a dog. He is the best behaved dog I've ever met and is just a bundle of love. I am totally and utterly besotted by him. Buzz too. But Ernie is just such a sweet guy. All he wants is affection and I have it in droves
