2 for 1 special - Shadow Ryan

MEET SHADOW





  • 2 for 1 Special
I am out walking shadow like I do every morning hoping we don't come along too many critters as she is quite the hunter who likes to lunge, pull my shoulder out, and catch whatever gets her interest. As we are just about making our way home, I tell shadow it was a pretty quiet day in the animal food chain kingdom today. No sooner do I say it, does she lunge towards a cat (i was able to hold her), the cat turns around and their is a chipmunk hanging out of her mouth. Told Shadow there must of been a 2 for 1 special on the menu today. She looked at me like "what the ruff"? why didn't I let her eat?

I need to choose a new career for Bronson and Dino

I always thought Bronson and Dino would make good service dogs because they have sweet, loving personalities.My mind changed quickly when Eddie took the dogs to see my father-in-law when he was in the hospital. As soon as they got in my father-in-law's room, Bronson jumped up on  grandpa's bed and Dino jumped on his roommates bed.They just looked at Eddie as to say "What the Ruff" we just wanted to snuggle.Needless to say, we realized they were just not ready to be service dogs.

We are very friendly!

Neither Dino or Bronson have an aggressive bone in their body. However, a simple leash is all it takes and they turn into Cujo.When they are on leash and see another dog on leash (it doesn't matter if its a pitbull or a toy poodle) they growl and the hair stands up on their backs.You would think they are going to tear apart the other dog apart.
I hope other dog owners understand this (because its embarrassing  especially when they pick up their dog in fear of Dino and Bronson!)I'm open for any dog whisperer type advice!!
