Arrival Story: Mom put an add in the paper that read "looking for puppy that will be 40-60 lbs. when grown". A man said he was bringing a litter of pups to the grocery store to try and find homes for them. When mom and dad got there they chose me from the box of puppies because I was the most friendly. Mom was told that my mom was 60 lbs. I weigh a little over 90 lbs. I guess I take after my dad who is wolf hound, husky and wolf. Oh , and I have 1 ear up and 1 ear down- very adorable mom says! Mom here: When we got Bonzer home I went to the calendar to record his birth date and found out he was born on the day we buried our beloved "Muffy" who lived 16 1/2 yrs. Amazing! The "wonder dog" term comes from some unusual things he has done like finding a raw chicken egg on a walk with his dad (no : ) he did'nt raid a chicken house ) and carried it home without breaking it and gave it to me and I cooked it for him. He also swam out and grabbed the rope on the boat when it drifted away and brought it back to shore! So... his grandpa would say "what's Bonzer the wonder dog done lately? "
Bio: His name means terrific in Australia. His hobbies include but are not limited too; keeping the yard free of moose (almost impossible!) and getting the newspaper. He has a very sweet disposition and loves meeting new dogs. He's also a great sport and puts up with being dressed as a dog salmon for parades.
Forums Motto: I'm a good boy!
We went clamming a few days ago and we all had a great time. We got lots of butter clams, steamers and mussels. I found a crab to play with and was trying to keep it from getting to the water by pawing at it. It got to the water despite my best efforts and I was trying to find it in the water but couldn't. I pointed, like- where did it go?, and it was dangling off the end of my paw. Mom and dad laughed long and hard over that one! Mom really wishes she had gotten a pic of that.
An eagle came and was dive bombing the duck family and mom yelled to me "Bonzie, eagle at the pond!" and I raced down there and barked at the eagle and it left. We don't think it got any of the babies though. Mom told me what a good boy I was and gave me a treat reward. : )
We have 9 cute baby mallard ducklings on our pond. The mom nested nearby and we put corn out for her at the pond. Mom is watching out for eagles and if one comes she will tell me and I will race down to the pond if she says "eagle at the pond!" I learned those words when the eagles were hanging around trying to get the koi and other baby ducks.
