God is good to us. We get to have dogs as a friend.

Dogs are great.

I had some icky surgery this summer and was in the hospital almost a month. When I got home our pittie laid on the sofa next to me and cried. Now, he will not leave my side. I’m working from home and he lays on the floor next to my desk chair and if I get up he follows.

If I can’t sleep (like now) he’s right next to me on the sofa. It’s very comforting to be guarded so well.

Kind of ironic that a dog needs to be rescued from a shelter.

Good boy: Hercules attacked an intruder to defend his new found home - breaking through a screen door to give chase to the thug

The Brit news does a better job on US news than our hacks do.

I was waiting for the part where the family was arrested and the dog taken away because it bit the intruder. That happened in the UK after all.

Wonder if Hercules recognized the perp... as his previous “master”.

I wish I could go to a shelter and adopt a gazillion dogs but......... I am already one dog over the legal limit for the city of Houston. The only St Bernard I have ever known lived across the street and he had to be put down because he was a mean biter. I wonder how rare that is?

Nice story, but it seems from the owner’s words that he’s still not absolutely sure he’ll keep the dog even though he’s “earned the right to stay” Huh?
