Lol! 🙂 Great pics. What a load of softies we are eh? Dogs are ace.
@busydog – as far as we know he’s an alsation/GSD. He certainly acts like one, but who knows.
Yes, he bit Mrs Stratobiker on the leg. Out of fear we think. We’re sure it would have been much worse if it had been an agressive bite, and as he doesn’t do agression we think it must have been fear. Like fearful due to being in a new/strange environment with nothing familiar other than a drinking bowl. I did ask the old owners sister if she had any articles of her brothers clothing, an old jacket or something that I could wear that would make me smell familiar, but she didn’t have anything.
Anyway, Mrs Strato’ had to take a trip to hospital, have tetanus jabs and a course of antbiotics. She said that Rex had to go, and it was suggested to us that we have him put down. He was given a month. But, nobody wanted him, and he’s such a lovely chap that Carla decided he should be given a second chance. I shot lots of video footage of how he bahaves with us and got some help from an animal psychiatrist!!!
Basically she said that Rex was stressed and fearful, porobably due to having a new home at the age of 10. She suggested a number of things we could do to help him relax. Two months down the line he’s brilliant, and him and Mrs Strato’ are best of friends. Looking at how he is now to how he was, it was obvious.
Soz, I’ve gone on a bit….but he’s my boy!!! 😉
