So about 3 hours ago my landlords brindle pit bull, Tank wasn’t on his leash and turned the corner and saw Emmet(pictured) and ran after him and grabbed a hold of his neck. I was in such a state of shock! Then I remember something that a friend had told me..”If one of those pit bulls ever attacks your dogs grab their hind legs and lift them up in the air.” So I did what she told me too and guess what…it didn’t work! So then I just started pounding my fists into Tanks’ jaw repeatedly until the mail-lady came running down the street and sprayed mace into his eyes. Then Tank finally let go. Then I immediately checked Emmetts’ neck to make sure that the bleeding would stop. Thankfully, it did. I put some anti-bacterial ointment on his two puncture wounds and made an appointment with the vet for 8am tomorrow morning. Then I cried…ALOT! I cried on the phone to my Mom, I cried on the phone to Francesca, I cried on the phone to the Vet and I cried in person to the neighbors…and of course to Emmett. I then took him to McDonalds for a couple double cheeseburgers because I was just so proud/scared/grateful for him being okay. So the moral of this story…please keep your dogs on a leash!
Dog Fight=One of the Scariest Experiences of My Life! October 9, 2008
Anyone have a really stubborn dog? October 7, 2008
Ok so my lab/pitbull puppy, Bailey(pictured below), is driving me INSANE! I’m
currently crate training her but it is NOT WORKING! The second I let her out of the crate she will deficate right on my rug but, if I take her outside she will not go. She will literally wait until I take her inside to go to the bathroom! I have no idea what to do! I have tried everything; rubbing her nose in it, clicker, treats, and every other thing! I live in an apartment in the city so it’s not like I have a backyard to let her lose in while i’m at work. So what should I do? I would REALLY appreciate any tips that you guys have used with your stubborn dogs!
Animal Adoption=Saving Lives October 1, 2008
No matter what area of the country(or world) you are in; you can help thousands of homeless animals a year by donating or adopting an animal from your local shelter. Most animal shelters are also in serious need of certain supplies. Most of the things they need include blankets, toys, crates, food, bowls, paper towels, laundry soap, and basically anything that you would use at home! I adopted my boy, Emmett(pictured) from the Worcester Animal Control Center and he is probably the best dog I have yet to have! Despite the fact that he was severely abused, he is so undeniably loyal and will follow me everywhere! I don’t even have to put him on a leash when we go for our daily walks. I take him to my parents house almost every weekend and occasionally to class! So guys, seriously, consider adoption. I PROMISE you won’t regret it!!!
