Description
When we went to pick up this Brittany puppy, my daughter and I had to drive almost two hours from her home. He was a rambunctious little guy, but a bit shy of these two strange women oohing and ahhing over him. We found out that this poor little guy had never been outside in his ten young weeks of life. He had spent almost that entire time in a cage in the basement. He was very curious and a bit worried about the frozen ground and the crunchy, tickly grass covered by falling tiny flakes of snow. One of the last things the man said to us was, "he will be stubborn."
My daughter and her husband named him Rooney and he became the third member of this wonderful family. He has welcomed two little bundles of joy into his home and grudgingly accepted that he was no longer the #1 in the house. True to what was promised, he is stubborn and he is ornery! He learned he could grab food off any dining table, highchair or kitchen counter. He learned he could open doors all by himself and go into any room and make himself at home. He will try to eat just about anything. He is mischievous.
When he goes outside, he runs around with sheer delight! He is as graceful as any thoroughbred you will see race. His love of life and joy of his freedom out in his yard is such a joy every time I see him.
He is getting up in years now and can't hear very much. He loves his family and he even tolerates my little pup who thinks that he likes having her bark in a high shrill right by his face, (luckily, he can't hear that much anymore) In spite of their differences, they are buddies. He is deeply loved and everyday is treasured. He can be ornery, but to us, he is a "good boy!"
Thank you so much for taking time to look through my images and collections. I really appreciate your time!
I am very concerned with our environment and have decided to donate any money I make from any sales of this image to the ENVIRONMENTAL DEFENSE FUND.....because the Earth needs a good lawyer! We all need to speak up and support efforts to protect our environment. We will not get a second chance!
