adventures with bubbas.

Today is my pitbull, Bubbas, sixth "gotcha day". Yes, I realize its somewhat cheesy to celebrate this but he's made such an odd impact on my life. He's definitely not an easy going dog unless its just me and him. I always say he's my "Marley" like the dog from Marley and Me.
There's no denying this dog is a handful since the day I picked him out of the litter and he went full speed almost crashing into a door. While, trying to teach him basic manners there were tons of tears and just shoutings (not directed at him) of frustration. I wasn't the only teacher in this, he even managed to teach me a few things.
I think if I went through all the stories and pictures I have of him, we'd be here for hours... so I'm just going to leave it with a picture I took this morning of him. Maybe, I'll start adding in random stories and pictures of him. Living with this dog is always an adventure.

riding in cars with dogs.

This is always an adventure. Today, they go to the doggy hotel (boarding) for the weekend. These two are balls of energy. Bubbas (the pitbull)... gets nervous on car rides no matter how many times he's been in the car over his 6yrs of existence. He normally rides in a popup crate but since he sees the girl, Pickles ( Australian Cattle Dog), just wandering the back, he feels that he's been left out and needs to do the same. He, also, drools and slobbers up the windows. If you ask me that's a small price to pay for no whining and him trying to break out of the crate. Well, it isn't exactly... but it is a lot better than him constantly rolling the popup around trying to break free.
