A sad day for Mommy......

I write this today with a very, very heavy heart. My sweet boy needs to be re-homed due to his parents divorce and the terrible issues his mommy has faced in getting her life back to normal. I won't go into tedious detail of what transpired to get me to this point but just know that it is a typical battered woman/escape situation that has got us here.

Trier (sounds like tray) is almost 7 now, not altered and CKC registered. He has been with my mom for the last year but she is almost 70 and he is just too much for her to handle sometimes. He is good with other dogs if they are smaller and better with the ladies of any size of course. He has lived with cats and they are not a problem. He walks well on a leash but prefers to run/jog much more especially with his person. He is an inside dog, never having spent a day outside in his life. He is spoiled, does get on furniture if allowed and likes cottage cheese and yogurt in his food.

I am asking for a nice family to find it in their hearts to take him in and make him one of their own. Having owned many rotties in my life time, he is one of the most special dogs I have ever known.

What's Noah's Ark?

Hey there everydog - I have a question. What is Noah's Ark? It all started last Friday........out of nowhere this little puppy came wandering down our street and Daddy started yelling. The mean dogs across the street where chasing the little guy and Daddy went running out the front door. Then the little guy came up on our front deck and Daddy told him to stay there. So, Mommie gets home and he is still there. She talks to Daddy and they bring him inside. Pictures are taken, food is given and shortly there after a bath is ready. He's been here ever since but they keep talking to people on the phone about him - I know they are 'cause they say "Poor little guy, he's so sweet and cute". It's really quite silly if you ask me. Then, Sunday morning, Daddy's making coffee and he is telling someone outside the open kitchen window, "This isn't Noah's Ark, ya know?". Well, low and behold, he lets a kitten in the front door! She jumps up on the couch and just settles right down for a nap! Now they have a bag of cat food next to our dog food. What is going on???? Mom and Dad have lost their minds! So, someone tell me what Noah's Ark is before too long, I am beginning to get a bit nervous here.
Signed, one very confused, used-to-be only dog, Trier Henre

New photos

Woof fellow doggies! Mommie put a new picture in my profile today of me, her and my little bro Jeeter Dawg. I will have to say he sure looks good after his eye surgery. I was a great weekend here in Texas - the weather was beautiful and the best part was Mommie was home ALL weekend! She had been working weekends on a grant submission and wasn't around much. Don't get me wrong, we like Dad and all, but he's just not Mommie. I had major separation anxiety when she was working all those hours. I would try and sneak in bed with her even though I knew Dad would yell as soon as he felt me climbing in. But I just missed her so much!!! Anyway, that is over and she is home like usual now so I am much less stressed. Bark at ya later dawgs - Trier Henre

Mommie's home today!

Woof my four legged friends! Trier Henre here and I am having the best day ever! Mommie is working from home today and I am in heaven. My brother Jeeter Dawg and me got a special breakfast, a long early morning walk, and then, Mommie let us stay in her computer room while she worked. I have been laying on her feet, getting belly rubs and sweet talk all day. Daddy even let us sleep in late with Mommie - on the bed even! I wish she could work from home every day. I think Mommie wishes that too :) Well, it's off to the kitchen for a biscut and Daddy will be home soon for another walk. He usually plays sticks with us at night so that will be the perfect ending to a great day!. Bark at ya later - Trier Henre
