this is my 6 year old boxer/pit bull mix. she's sweet as can be if she knows you. she makes a great guard dog and play thing for my 1 and 3 year old kids.
Got him out of the pound almost five years ago. He rides with me in the truck everyday if I like it or not. A constant shadow as I work around the yard or property. Not the sharpest tool in the shed, but never known a more loyal dog.
Here's my girls. Abby is 8 and is a boxer/beagle mix and Jessie is 4 and is a boxer/pit mix. They were both from the pound at different times. Jessie is a BEAST but Abby is the boss! They are both great with me 1 year old boy.
she showed up at the front door 5 years ago. someone dropped her off 20 lbs under weight ( could count ribs ) collar and no tag and no one called to find her. so we adopted and its been one of the best things me and the wife could have ever done.
I would put a picture of my couch warmers :swordn here, but you cant get them together long enough to take a picture and one of them (the male) will run and hide! Got to wonder what wanted list he is on. They refuse to participate in lowering their status to do tricks. There definately has to be a treat involved to even get them to think about sitting. Not one of them would consider retrieving a bird, but my cat he routinely brings in snakes, lizards and birds of a variety of sizes. The most surprising was coming home one afternoon to the living room full of feathers and this bird including tail, was at least a foot long. Being 1/4 leapord, he frequently thinks this is the jungle, even my dogs are scared of him.
