Arrival Story:
I found Tua inside the now closed Dewie Animal Shelter. I was "only looking" when I came to his kennel. 6 months old and emmaciated to just skin and bones he was huddled in a corner he looked up and that was it. He crawled to the fence and licked me, he had me. I ran to the frontdesk to make sure i would get him. He was sick and on his last day so a few days and few hundred bucks later he came home for good. He's best dog in the world, beyond good with kids and people, most loving dog. Unfortunately whatever happend to him for those first few months of his life was too much and no matter what i tried counseling, training, all sorts of socialicing attempts he cannot play free with other dogs. I wouldnt trade him for anything, he is my boy, my first love and my brother.

Bio:
Tua is a clown. An absolute goofball and kid. He can make anybody laugh. Unfortunately, Tua was not well socialized before he got to me and after one too many encounters with large dogs at the dog park, i decided he could no longer play free roaming with other dogs. It's sad because he's an angel and he's perfect in every way, a perfect gentleman. He is the most loving dog and i would trust him with my life. Tua is very lazy about 90% of the time, but that other 10% he is nuts! Wont stop running jumping playing. for hours on end. He'll play with the sprinklers at the park for hours...no kiddin hours Having Tua has inspired me to help dogs that are deemed "unadoptable" because they aren't socialized and cannot play with other dogs. Upon purchasing of a home Tua and I will specialize in fostering "aggressive" dogs until rehabilitated to be adopted, and hopefully sometime before I retire I will open an Animal Sanctuary for aggressive and unadoptable dogs so they can live out there lives happilly.

Forums Motto:
I only look tough...just ask the cat

we went camping to arizona this weekend. Oh boy am i tired! 3 mile hike each way, and uphill on the way back! It was hell on the way back. We had lots of fun, hiking to the natural hotsprings, and swimming in the lake, mom and dad barely got in because the lake was soo cold even though it was 106 degrees in the sun. My pads got all torn up from walking so much in the rugged rocks and sand, dad had to carry me...don't believe me? just look at my pictures... Mom and dad put some of their socks on my me so it wouldnt get any worse. Thank god for mom, she's the greatest thing that ever happened to me, if it wasnt for her dad would have never thought of putting socks on me! Some of the food got soaked in the lake water, lucky for me it was hot dogs and turkey slices, which mom hand fed to me : ) They got stuck eating tuna again for dinner. When we finally got home we were pooped and i've been resting since yesterday. Mom and Dad got me some (anti-biotics and) pain killers so my paws get better soon. Until then i'll be dreaming of chasing those ducks again...

This weekend we are going camping on the colorado river! We're taking off after dad gets off of work. It's a long hike 3.7 miles to the river. But once we're there is nothing but beachy sand and natural hotspring... dad said i can get in swim in the river, but i cant get in the hotsprings. Dad and I went with Max before a few years ago. It's really cool nobody knows how to get there, you can only get there by boat or by this long hike. My sister Max had surgery on her leg last week and she's still not feeling good. Dad said if she doesnt cheer up by tomorrow we're gonna take her to the vet again to see what's up. I've got this really cool backpack i'm taking camping and i can carry all my stuff in it. I cant wait to go and hopefully i'll have great pictures to show from it!

 

my new picture are here!
