I love pit bulls.... always wanted one but never have got one.
Both of mine "chose" us. we didn't go out looking for a certain breed although i'd love to own a full pit bull.
For years i begged and begged and for a few days my dad and i went to each of the shelters close to us.... we found Simba. He decided he wanted to come home with us, so he did.
When adopting Nala first we went to the SPCA like the monday befor. There was this adorable little girl pit bull puppy. I'm pretty sure my dad would have signed the papers right then and there, we even went up to the office to check up on her availibilty. The only thing is, we were out of their "district" and they can't adopt pit bulls out of their district,which i think is complete B.S. Dogs in the shelter are in need of homes whether it be 1 mile away or 4 miles away. and since it was a pit bull, if i was the owner of a shelter i'd do anything and everything to make sure it find a perfect home, even if it is a few miles farther, as i would with any dog.
So, that Friday following Friday, i had a half a day of shcool.When we got home we went to the Human Society like our normal weekly visits. We were playing around with the 4 lab mix puppies in the puppy pin, but the guy who worked in the kennels said they were all adopted. Nala was the lightest colored, skinniest, smallest of all the puppies. she has 1 black and two tan littermates. My dad said "Lets go up to the office and see if she's really adopted, because there's nothing that says "Adopted".... "What?? Ok dad." So we went up to the office, gave the lady her number and she handed us papers...Dad still says "Well, i wasn't going to get her but the office was crowded and loud and the lady just handed me the paper" uhh huhhh ok dayDad had me fill most of them out, but with his info. He signed and i went in back to get her a bag of puppy food. As we were filling out the paper, one of her littermates were getting adopted also. When we were all done rushed back to get her, she was mine!
My first "puppy".
Ok... so that was a little more than you asked for but yeah, they chose us.![]()
