AWWW Congrats Brick on a wonderful new family!! :D
Not a stupid question. I really havn't talked a lot about Rally. Rally is a German Shepherd/Siberian Husky mix puppy that I found at a Rally's drive through. We had planned on keeping her, but with my job and her endless energy we really can't give her the exersize she needs. A puppy was not for us at the moment. Brick is already housebroken and knows basic commands. He'd be happier here than Rally would be.Quote:

I just love him. :D and you need to invest in a crate because you are never supposed to leave a pittie with other dogs unattended no matter how good they get along.
:)
OMG you got me all sniffly now. What a special boy Brick is!
What great news! He just looks so sweet, and he looks like he know he's "home"! I'm so sorry to hear about your Mom, that is just heartbreaking. Please give her my sympathies & a big (((hug)))
hey thats great you are keeping him! I'm glad that shovel wielding schmuck never got a chance to whack him.
Lute, how is Brick today? Do you still have Rally staying with you? (I'd still like to clonk the fellow with the shovel who made the nasty remark. Just wait till he sees Brick happy and healthy. Take that, you meanie.)
luvofallhorses- I'm fully aware that Brick is going to need his excersize too. Just not as much as Rally does. She has two high energy breeds in her. Just too much for me to handle in a puppy right now. We don't leave any of the dogs unattended, besides Gracie and Beanie. Brick is still learning the ropes around here and we aren't taking any chnaces because the breed does have a history of being dog aggressive.
cyber-sibes, my mom says thank you.
cassiesmom, Brick is doing just fine today. He's sleeping with his rawhide chew. We already have a nightly routine. He sleeps in my room. We start out with him on the floor or on the bed next to me. By morning I am using him as a pillow because he's using mine and my blanket is wadded up under him. :rolleyes:
Why am I not surprised? :D Congratulations!
Brick is getting the big snip and his tail dock on the 12th.
Just out of curiosity, why is he getting his tail docked?Quote:

Okay I don't want to sound like a "know it all" and that isn't my intention.
but he would be getting his tail amputated; not docked. Docking is something you do intentionally; amputating is something you do if you have to but you don't intentionally want their tail docked. Does that make sense? :)
Oh Okay, it did seem odd that she would dock a pitties tail, but I just had to ask.:)Quote:
