All about Brutus

im a lucky dog

So Im really getting adjusted to my new home. Its been a bit over 4 months and im really happy here. I didnt think id like the big guy that lives here with mom but now i call him dad and he is great. I have to admit I give him more kisses than I give mom..dad tells mom its cuz she took me to the vet and had my bobos cut off..whatever that means...he just lets me lick him on the face as much as I want so i let him know that i love him all the time. Mom will hold me..tho that is left for special times on the bed at night...i will get to get up on their bed, i will give dad kisses then throw myself backwards right ontop of mom..she will put her arms around me and hold me and pet me and then i go back to dad and lay on him where i am in close range to give him more kisses. Dad says Im a really good boy...very well behaved and he is glad mom rescued me. I dont get out of the yard anymore cuz i learned where home is and I like it here. there are treats and lots of playtime...lots of love. Rogue is a bit of an attention hog tho..i have to share with her..i dont mind but she tends to be a bit pushy when it comes to toys...but she says she is the boss so i just give her whatever im chewing on and go find something else...i get to sleep everynight with the kid. I sleep in bed with him! I get uncomfortable tho..i still dont sleep well, i get restless...mom doesnt know why..i think it worries her a bit...that other one that was here, Vi, she is gone now. She went to the rainbow bridge to meet up with Moats, whoever that is, Rogue doesnt even know. Mom cried so I guess that means she wont be coming back. So Rogue got upset for a couple weeks...her brother never came back and now Vi, who was her doggie mom is gone. She actually got very testy...it was almost like the first day I came here. But she is coming around again..we have been outside playing in the mud and chasing squirrels..they wont come down from the powerlines..they just chatter at u and run back and forth..rogue said her and leed were working on how to get them so now I have to help her with that...thats fine with me as long as it doesnt interrupt my time with the 2 neighbor dogs behind us, I like to visit them through the fence when they come out...im not liking it warming up..i miss the snow..it was so nice to go lay in the snow..id roll and roll and then just lay there...ahhhh...that was heaven.

Hey, its my bday march 30..i will be 3 yrs old! that is the day before daddy and grandma's bday..mom said that was a sign for sure that i was meant to be here.

New collar/new home...

Well i hope im home for good now. I hated those mean little dogs that kept biting me. I was a bit cranky when my new mom came to get me...but very happy on the ride home. The kid here says im his but i kinda like hanging out with mom too. But the kid he will lie on the floor with me and cover me up with his blankets...i like that tho i get hot after a bit.

There's this hot chick named Vi that lives here...i REALLY like her. But I dont think im supposed to like her like that. Mom keeps telling me no..thats all i hear all day long everytime i go and try to be friendly..brutus no..im going to change my name and not tell her. I heard something about getting snipped..hmm wonder what that means? Whatever it is, the family seems to be happy about it and cant wait.

Rogue, now she is a big meanie. Or at least she was. One day i was eating and she walked right up and tried to take my food..i told her no tho..but i think i scared her when i did that. She tries to take my bones too. If im chewing on one she will stare at me..even tho mom gave her one too..and then she will bark. I finally get tired of hearing her bark and i let her have the bone and i go get hers. I dont get that kid..she's weird sometimes. But we are close in age...she just turned 2 so we like to chase each other. I get mad tho cuz she knows i cant fit in some spots and she will run there and hide then jump out at me when i run by..just about scares the pee outta me.

I dont know this guy very well that lives here. He is the daddy. Rogue told me that he is her human, i can have the boy and mom..but not all the time cuz they are hers too. They guy is hunting right now and leaves for a bit and comes home for a couple days then leaves again..so ive only met him once. He is for surely the boss tho...i let him know that one day when i was bad and got into the trash..he yelled at me and I just couldnt control myself and i pee'd. He was nice to me tho..he didnt hit me like others have. He played with me and petted me. I just dont know him as well as I know mom and everything is still so new. They are a loud family so i have to get used to that too.

I guess rogue had a brother that lived here. But him and her went for a walk one night when they got out of the kennel and they got seperated and leed found a new home. She was sad but now she is ok. She still misses him but she says as long as I listen to her that I can be her friend...she can be bossy but she sure is fast when we play chase. She talks too much tho. Always has something to say to me, vi, mom, the boy and dad.

All I need now, mom says, is a new collar and Im good to go...my collar from my other mom got lost at the house with the chihuahua's. That lady sent me home in a collar that was too small. The boy put holes in it so it would fit for a bit longer but after a week and a half I have gained a bit of weight and it wont fit me. So mom is trying to find a collar that will and no one around us makes collars that big...so she found a belt that belongs to the boy that she said she will have to use until she can find it..it looks really stupid but mom says i have to have it on when I go outside..it has my id tags on it...tho she doesnt need a belt to control me..i am a good boy and I listen, most of the time, not like rogue.

Well, im wore out now..i have to go lay back down with my bone.

PS...Vi, I do NOT snore..not me! Im as quiet as they come!
