I have a new friend! I like her alot....she is very pretty with her tan coat and balck muzzle and she is just my size. She lives up the road a bit from me and she comes to visit me everyday. We chase each other up and down the fence...what fun! My mama says that she feels sad for my new friend whough...because she lives outside:( My mama says that all animal's should live inside with their families, where they are warm, safe and loved. My mama also says that I could not live outside...I have almost nonexistent fur and my tummy is bare and piggy pink! Thank goodness my mama has nice warm sweaters for me to wear when I am outside..even though, my daddy doesn't like th new pink one! He thinks it's not manly for me to wear...oh well, as long as I'm warm:)

THE LIFE AND TIMES OF AN ADOPTED PIT PUP NAMED SAMUEL
THE LIFE AND TIMES OF A PIT PUP NAMED SAMUEL
IT’S BEEN ALMOST 2 YEARS EXACTLY SINCE SAMUEL CAME INTO OUR LIVES LIKE A NEWBORN KITTEN…SWEET, GENTLE AND OH SO CUTE. SINCE THEN…SAMUEL THE KITTEN HAS BECOME “SAMUEL THE MIGHTY ALPHA”…KING OF ALL CREATURES. OR SO HE THOUGHT…UNTIL MAMA GOT A BACKBONE AND SAID “ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.”
NOWADAYS…YOU MAY SEE SAMUEL AND I WALKING AT OUR LOCAL PARK WITH THE SENIOR CITIZEN’S WHO CALL OUT TO HIM BY NAME AND ONE ELDERLY GENTLEMAN IN PARTICULAR IS ALWAYS RAGGING SAMUEL ABOUT HIS CAROLINA BLUE COAT….IN RESPECT FOR HIM…WE WORE OUR RED COAT TODAY..LOL
SAMUEL AND I HAVE COME ALONG WAY IN OUR TRAINING AND UNDERSTANDING OF EACH OTHER. HIS MAMA ESPECIALLY…HAS COME A LONG WAY IN DEALING WITH MR SAMUEL’S TEMPER TANTRUMS. SAMUEL KNOWS TO SIT WHEN SOMEONE WALKS BY DURING OUR MORNING JAUNTS, HE SITS AND DOWNS BEFORE MAMA WILL THROW HIS TENNIS BALL FOR HIM, HE SPINS, HE TWIRLS, HE BACKS UP (WORKING ON THIS ONE), HE SHAKES WITH LEFT PAW OR RIGHT PAW, HE JUMPS ON HIS TREADMILL FOR HIS NIGHTLY RUN, HE TOUCHES ITEMS WITH HIS NOSE ON COMMAND (STILL WORKING ON THIS ONE.) NEEDLESS TO SAY…WE BOTH ARE A WORK IN PROGRESS. WE TRAIN EVERYDAY AND OUR SOCIAL SKILLS WITH OTHER DOGS HAS BEEN GETTING BETTER EVERYDAY!
ONE THING THAT HIS MAMA IS VERY PROUD OF HERSELF FOR: NAILTRIMS! MAMA IS NOW ABLE TO DO NAILTRIMS WITHOUT TAKING HIM TO THE VET TO BE SEDATED…HOORAY! A HUGE HURDLE! BABY STEPS..BABY STEPS AND MORE BABY STEPS!!
SAMUEL HAS A NEW FRIEND!
3 DAYS AGO..I LOOK OUTSIDE AND I BELIEVE THAT MY EYES ARE DECEIVING ME! SAMUEL AND A YOUNG, FEMALE? SHEPHERD MIX ARE PLAY BOWING AND CHASING EACHOTHER THROUGH OUR FENCE! HOW AMAZING! IF YOU KNOW SAMUEL…YOU KNOW JUST HOW PARTICULAR HE IS IN HIS TASTE OF FRIEND’S. HE IS VERY SELECTIVE: 1 GOLDEN RETRIEVER NAMED TRISTIN (SAMUEL’S BROTHER) GRACIE AND EMERYS THE 2 GREYHOUND’S AND 1 EXTREMELY LARGE SHEPHERD BOY NAMED CLAYTON HAVE BEEN HIS ONLY FRIEND’S,,,TILL NOW. (SIGH)
MAMA’S GOALS FOR HER BOY
1. PASS CGC TEST (CANINE GOOD CITIZEN TEST)
2. ABLE TO WALK ON LEASH ANYWHERE..ESP. AROUND STRANGE DOGS.
