From oldest to youngest, I picked up our Husky-Shep mix as she walked along a hi-way, I put her in the cabover truck, bought her a pack of hot dogs to eat on the way home, opened her door and she bolted after a stray cat, doggone, nope I whistled a shrill loud whistle and she broke from the cat and returned, that was 12 years ago or so. I got the chiuahuah from a pest control customer who had a 10 yr old chi also, smidgy started showing domination and biting the old chi so the lady told me she had to get rid of her. I told her I had a bigger dog that could take it. I took her home, handed her to my daughter telling her to go to her room for at least half hour and they have been unseperable since. That was 10 years ago. Next door to a pest control customer I was servicing I saw a litter of pitbull pups in less than good condition and a pair of old pit parents who were pretty protective. I thought about it for a spell, told the family we were going for a ride and wouldn't ya' know it we ended up on that little backstreet
The people were asking $150, I told em that was high for a back yard breeding. My customer saw me and came out so I ended up being introduced as the bugman, I did german roach and flea control as pay for my little Rosie Red, almost 4 years ago. My son was followed by a big beautiful blue pit bull female 2 years ago. I told him "no way!" She had tags with a conneticut phone number. The vet gave us her name "Chase" but said he had no way to call the owner who had moved. I sent my son with the dog back where he first saw her to see if she would go home as she was not loose long by appearence, sure enough she picked a house where my son was verbally attacked by a crazy lady 'cuz the dog had busted out of the gate and her other dog was still missing! It turns out her husband was letting a worker stay there and it was his pitbull. He did not know where we lived but was walking around calling her. My son was reluctant but went out and let him know we had her, he saw the love she was getting and the love our other dogs get and decided it would be better for her to stay here in our home. That is where we got our 4 current dogs. Brent
