We adopted 2 dogs!!! UPDATE: With a PHOTO!!!
Mr. Biggles & Bear.
They came as a pair at no cost (the Toronto HS adopts out free animals) & free meds for 2 months.
Mr. Biggles looks like a JRT, Silky, Maltese mix kind of dog He is about 12p & 8yrs old. Hes not a handsome looking dog with his under bite, but his personality is great & makes him SOOOOOOOOOOOO lovable!!!! His lovely silky fur was all matted & gross, so we shaved him baled so it can grow out nicely & even. His fur is sooooo soft now! We still have his legs to shave, as he was over stresssed with being shaved near his tail & snapped at Chad (not a biggy).
Bear is a pure Rottie "She" is 170p & 5yrs old. She has Hypothyroid & is on meds twice a day. Shes on light kibble & lots of walks & short jogs.
They are PERFECT in every way. They stay out of the trash, house trained, some obidence, sweet as hell, are ok to walk, LOVE car rides, & act as if they have always known us. Mr. Biggles sleeps on my bed 1/2 the time hehe Bear will NOT go upstairs, so we're working on that. If one of us leaves they both start crying... awwwww... When Chad & Andrew left to go to Ikea to buy things for our new home (we moved out last Fri), Mr. Biggles was crying up a storm the second the door closed. I called his name & he flew up the stairs & onto my bed where he slept for several hours with me.
Both are really big sucks!
We took them to PetSmart to buy them food, toys, bowls, treats & grooming stuff. Both were pretty darn good & got a free nail clipping, cause we had just gotten them & Bears nails were HORRIBLY long. Everyone at the store wanted to see them, as Bear is super fat & Mr. Biggles is so small. People are amazed when they find out they are a pair & love them even more when they find out we adopted them together.
Both dogs will not do well with other dogs in their house or with kids in their housem but outside all they want to do is play play & play some more!!
Its so hard to think that someone gave them both up & that they were at the shelter for 3.5 months. My goodness, we never expected to find 2 perfect dogs.

I stole the photo from the Toronto HS. A member here on PT stumbled upon the photo & alerted me, so I could show my babies off :D
Turns out Mr. Biggles might be a pure maltese... Mr. Biggles is currently shaved, as his fur was matted & nasty. It would have hurt him to brush all the ick out of his fur. In a few months he'll have his lovely long fur back :D
Bear looks thin in the photo, but she really isn't... her fat is on her sides & her back looks flat, like a table top. She also has about 10 butt cheeks lol Shes such a sweety & we all love them so very much :D
