I used to run my rottie around the block with my street bike until i sold it and he was gettin would up plenty tight so now i take him for a ride in the car and stop at the bottom of the hill on the way home and let him out and let him run home...first week he could run 15mph...now he is up to 20....i bet he could run 25 on flat ground....

And he is a pound puppy too

Said goodbye to my buddy Cletus a week ago today when this guy shows up needing a new home ASAP. It didn't take my wife two seconds to say "go for it" since she was still crying daily about Cletus. He's a wonderful boy and he's a valentine's day baby like me!

Note: Rexone was not looking for new dog. Rexone already has several dogs.

6pm - Rexone comes to realization that at very least he is now a foster parent of a 5 month old healthy but underweight skinny puppy that everything in life will be a new experience for

Vet Costs for shots, checkup, deworming round 1 - $82
Various puppy items from Petco - $45
Knowing saved this little guy's life more than likely - Priceless

A name implies permanent ownership


I was very careful to crop out most of my office floor and desk just for the above reason.

cool little pup rex ... very nice of what you did

... just wait until it starts to chew up the magazines on the floor

if one of my magazines comes all chewed up, i'll know where to place blame
