Found this pic while doing a clear out.
This is my Brother realising Blade the rottie did not like the fact he put his arm around him. Blade is making a very deep growl, Had to tell brother to move his arm before things went south.
Blade was runt of a litter and no one kind of wanted him. A work mate told me about him as he knew by that time in my life i had rescued 16 dogs.
I would be told about Dogs being mistreated and would visit current owner.A few choice words later i would walk out of the house with the dog.
Blade was in such a bad condition Vet thought he was a cross between a rottie and maybe a whippet type dog.
He had been fed on half a tin of wet dog food a day, Not been wormed and was covered in fleas.He was 16 weeks old and a walking skeleton. Was housed in a make shift kennel outside .The slightest noise and he would jump out of his skin.The so called breeder had been putting the boot in i think.
Took many many months just to get him to relax around familly etc.
In the pic he is 4 years old, Built like a tank with a coat like quick Silver.
I would take him for walks and because of his mistrust of people he would not allow anyone near us.As long as they were out of arms reach they were ok.
Told my Bro dont get too close, He didnt listen and Blade let him know
.
He was a wonderful Dog and had a heart of gold. I can Honestly say Blade would put his life on the line to protect his Familly.
Still get teary eyed when i see pics of him. He had a good life with us though and is much missed.
Ps
There is always a ps with me haha.
Last dog wife and I rescued was a Jack Russel called Honey=Puppy Farm. She lived to the grand old age of 17 and died exactly one year after my wife passed on the very same Date. 12 July 2022.
