Napoleon the Great




Napoleon died yesterday.
He had cancer, and it was just time.
I am going to miss the old guy. I really liked him alot. He came from a three dog family, and he quickly became my favorite. He had been abused by his prior owners. And he didn't get to live with his current owners very long, just a few short months. At least he was in a good place for the end of his life, and I hope he realized how loved he was.

He had a goofy kind of gait, that when i would watch him walking in front of me, reminded me of JarJar Binks from the Star Wars trilogy.

Rest now Nappy. I hope to see you when it's my turn to cross that bridge.

It Could Have Been a Full Moon




They were acting like it was a full moon, but it wasn't.
I walked into Charlotte's house to find the bulldog had eaten her bed.
I walked into Napoleon's house to find the rottweiler attacked the garbage can.
What a mess!
Bad dogs!

three dog night






Lucy the Bullmastiff, Napoleon the rottweiler, and Clue the Pit Bull.
Napoleon and Clue were shelter rescues, recently adopted by fairly new clients. Aren't they a cute family??? And bless the humans that care for them!
I think I love Clue the best. He is such a pleasure to walk. He has a bounce and walks with such pride and happiness. He is contagious!
Lucy is a riot. Every day we have to walk up the street and say hello to the man who sells insurance. He is her boyfriend.
Napoleon is the newest. I have only walked him four days so far, so his personality is still emerging. But look at his face!
How could anyone not love these guys (and a doll)?
