    Meet Zeke, My Son's New Puppy! Cuteness Overload Warning!!

    This is Zeke. Cute beyond words, truly.

    My son brought him home from a friend's house. These young girls took the starving mother and a litter of nine starving puppies from their crack-head neighbor. I was NOT happy about a puppy in the house, but what could I say, really? He has known nothing but dogs and rescue since he was born. Plus, he is eighteen, and he will take Zeke with him when he moves out. (Not that it will happen any time soon, I'm guessing.) So, while I was NOT in the market for a puppy of questionable adult size and parentage, I have to say I'm proud of my son for trying to help a puppy.

    The mother dog is now at the humane society. My son is working there now, and he talked his friends into surrendering her. She is so sweet!

    No idea what the dad is, but my guess is springer spaniel or maybe border collie. You won't believe what the mom is though ... a brindle pit bull! Seriously.

    Will trade puppy-breath fix for housetraining services.

    Please tell your son from me that he is a wonderful person!! I love to see young people already loving animals. That is one adorable little guy!!! He is precious. He does look like he might have some BC or Springer Spaniel in him. Best of luck to Zeke and your son!! They're gonna have a great life together.


    I've been Boo'd...
    Thanks Barry!

    Goo for those 2 girls saving mom and her litter, and kuos to your son for helping.

    As for Zeke -- keep your camera handy, we want to see lots of this baby as he grows! What a cutie.

    And for one who was starving, I think in one photo I see a bit of a pot belly, lol, the puppy kind!

    Yeah, he made up for lost time very quickly! When we got him you could see his ribs, back bone and hip bones. It took him about a week to look like a roly poly puppy! He does NOT miss a meal, or any crumb he can beg off of someone.

    He is too cute for words!
    It will be interesting to see what he looks like when he's fully grown It's fun to think that he might be a border collie mix. Pit bull and border collie... I don't think I've ever seen that before haha.
    Kudos to your son (and you ) for taking this baby in and giving him a real home

    Border Collie's can have white faces, but he doesn't look pure. I definitely see some BC, though! Spring Spaniel is possible too, but can they have white faces?

    His face makes me want to say maybe some American Bulldog?

    I actually am not seeing any border collie now that is growing a bit. I am seeing springer, especially in his ears. The white half of his face, and his little pink rimmed eye, look pit to me. We'll see. He is big doofus, that's for sure!

    Thanks, but I doubt my son would agree with you. I'm sure he could think of a million reason why I'm very uncool.
