 Bud |
Bud was born Aug. 93, give or take a year. We had been in our new house in Flagstaff just over a year when we decided to look for another dog. I had my heart set on getting another lab like Valentine. We visited the local shelter at least once or twice a week, looking for just the right dog. My x-boyfriend noticed Bud, and at first I wasn’t too keen on Bud and wanted to keep looking. It became apparent to me that every time we went to the shelter, he was still there, looking up at us longingly every time we passed his run. I was starting to feel sorry for him. I even asked the employee's if anyone had shown interest in him, they said "no". We arranged for the animal control officer to bring him out to the visiting area so we could look at him. The minute the officer released him from the leash, this dog "Bud", came running over to me and laid down across my feet. Needless to say, Bud came home with us. Sometimes I call him "Budly" or "Bud Man", and he loves to run as fast as he can, in circles around the other dogs, trying to provoke them into chasing him. |
