Title: Hey Cathi

To respond to your question without derailing the Christmas Tree thread any further.......

Due to his super high energy propensity to zoom everywhere in a hurry, we call him "Rush." The dog has two speeds: Stop and Go-Flat-Out No medium speed available.......

As I said, he's kinda funny looking (this is his "good side ;D) but he just really grabbed my heart in a split second when I saw him at the animal shelter.

He was found wandering in the woods, skinny and starving - they had him for four months and nobody was interested in taking him home. The vet figures him shy of two years old.

I don't have to worry about getting him enough exercise because his favorite activity is chasing deer, rabbits and wild turkey's through the woods - he's faster than I would have guessed for a short legged dog.

Merry Christmas to you and yours, also!

LY,
Marc

Marc - I think he's gorgeous. Nice on you for rescuing him and giving him a good home.

LOL! Whaddaya mean, derail the Christmas tree thread?? Mellie was hoping to meet the dog too! (Right, Mel?)
And, and, (now you've made me lips quiver and I think I have a tear in my eye)...I'd never derail a thread. I'm even getting ready to take some pics of my trees for the thread! :D

Don't worry, I'll get over it.
Cathi

PS-He's sweet as can be, the name suits perfectly and I've never in my life 'bought an animal', they have all arrived out of need...either they adopt us, or we go to the pound and adopt them..........never ONE regret.all have become a part of me......so, welcome Rush, lucky dog.....don't let your owner call you a funny looking beast, you are handsome and special!

Speaking of dogs, I have a friend who knows of a dog needing rescue in western MA. It's a shepard mix, owners will be evicted this weekend and can't take the dog. It's about 5 years old, has been through some rough times, will need a quieter household and tlc. If anyone wants more details please PM me.

I turned into the type of owner I usually make fun of, lol. But this poor dog barely has any hair!! And the hair he does have is all shedded out on my bed!!

This is Boston. He is an 8 year old rescue boxer that needed long term medical attention as he has MegaEsophagus.

OK. seriously,WHO could be so cruel to such sweet creatures? Sometimes, I just HATE humans, but I'll

Merry Christmas!

Lately he's showing a tendency to offer analysis and commentary about events taking place in the woods.

Odd thing though, he has been 99.3% right on everything so far.
