The yellow lab is a female. Fairly smart dog.. where she lacks in smarts, she makes up for it with her extreme loyalty. She's around 9 or 10 years old now.. but healthy as a horse!
And then, there's 'Rufus'! This, this guy is my best friend. I swear to you people.. this dog thinks he's human. It's hilarious! He's got a great personality too. Also, believe it or not.. this dog is smarter than the yellow lab I have.. and I think he's even smarter than the Golden Retrievers that I've had in the past.. and some of them were extremely smart dogs.
I'm not sure what breed he is, but I got him from Milan, Italy about 4 years ago when I went with my parents to see our extended family. I'm sure he's got some Italian blood in him.. but yeah he's extremely smart, loyal, alert, and loves to play around with people.
He's great around little kids too. He's a mid-sized dog.. not a full size one, like the yellow lab I have. I actually rescued him from his abusive owners.. they had him tied to a fucking 20LB. metal/iron chain.. he only had like maybe 3 feet to move around.. had no water or food, so I rescued him and brought him home with me back to the states. I don't like people that abuse animals.. ESPECIALLY dogs/puppies. You have to be the scum of the fucking Earth to abuse a dog. I mean, shit.. its simple.. if the dog is giving you problems, or if you can't care for the dog.. for whatever reason it may be.. then thats fine, you should at least give the poor thing a chance and try and find it a new home!! I mean, how would you like it if you were a helpless little dog.. and you were being kicked around, rocks thrown at you, no food or water to speak of.. yeah, you wouldn't like that too much now would ya?
But anyhow, here are some pics of my two best friends:
I've got more pics somewhere. Hell, they may even still be on my memory card now that I come to think about it.
Sorry, the last pic is kinda blurry. I'll try and find the other better pics I have of both my buddies.. and come back and post them.
