weird in a cute way...
okay fine...MY dogs are weird...really...they are..
...but the only reason they get away with HALF of the stuff they do is because they're so darn cute...
Riely is seriously IN LOVE with my husband...like...she seriously is like stalker obsessed...anytime we hug or anything...she's right over his shoulder when I open my eyes...6 inches from my face...staring at me like "what are you doing with MY daddy????"
she edges me out in bed! hubby wakes up and she's wedged herself inbetween us (feet kicking ME of course)...he puts his arm over her in his sleep and wakes up thinking its me...
nope..its Riely...happy as a friggin clam...spooning with my husband....
she's freaks out when he even goes outside to his truck to get something...agitated and whimpering...'noooo come baaaack'...
she spends all day on the back of the loveseat like a cat...looking through the blinds...waiting for daddy...
she can't stand if he pays ANY attention to Buddha...she gets inbetween them...jumps on him...bites Buddha...or tries to divert his attention with a toy...
she just sits at the end of the couch and stares at me...we always make up what we think she's saying in her head "i hate you mommy...I'm gonna kill you in your sleep and then daddy will be ALL mine'...
or... "I wish I were a person...*sigh*..."
and he just encourages her...she's crazy...seriously...

ok, funniest thing happened last night, JoJo, Sahara and Artica all 3 got new toys for christmas, we were up at 12 so we gave them to them. Sahara and JoJo both got squeker toys. JoJo won't share with th other dogs, but sahara shared her squeker with Artica. JoJo heard artica's squeker and jumped on him growling and smaked him with her paw(didn't hurt him) he laid down and started crying like he was really hurt. Chris(hubby) picked him up and told him he was alright, he saw me sitting on the couch and jumped right into my lap and hugged me as tightly as he could. He would not get down for anything in the world until we got her out of sight. when it came time for bed, he saw her and jumped right in bed with me, not in between me and chris, but infront of me, chris laid behind me. They are all very jealous of each other, but Artica is patient. He knows that after the other 2 are done jumping and barking and having a fit, he'll get some lovin's! Last night, when he was laying in my lap(he is quite big for a lap dog) jojo even came up, gave chris her toy and licked artica's nose, as if to say sorry. they are so funny sometimes!!

I'm glad to see you still have Buddha. If you haven't already, do lots of homework on Pit Bulls. It is important to know about the breed's history, especially the fighting aspect. Here is a very important phrase to live by when owning a Pit Bull: never trust a pit bull not to fight. While Buddha may not be a fighter if he ever got into a squabble with another dog, you can expect him to fight like a pro and he won't stop until he or the other dog is dead. Please don't confuse animal aggression with human aggression. They are totally different. Dogs view other dogs as "competition" and we as humans are the providers and protectors, not to be harmed. This especially holds true for Pits. Don't be affraid to tell people what he really is, but be prepared to defend our great breed. That is another reason why you need to learn as much as you can about the breed so that you can defend it and educate others. www.pbrc.net is a good website that gives a lot of non-sugar coated info on the breed. Petsmart also has a magazine called Bully Breeds that gives good info on Pits, AmStaffs, Staffie Bulls and the kinds of activities you can do with your dogs.
Sorry my reply is so late, I'm new to this site.

mine doesn't bite
JoJo is an amer staff, she doesn't bite, she slaps, she has gotten into fights and ended up in situations where she protected me and our house, but she has neer bit a person or another dog, she just wrestles them down and uses that growl she has, and keeps the person or dog on the ground until my hubby, my best friend or I call her off. She is rougher than my other 2 dogs at play, but she still has never bit, even when put in a situation where most would.
