small dry pellet chickkens
A year ago today, we brought this little beast into our home. He’s been both a trial and a joy, but I wouldn’t trade him for any dog in the world, nor accept any refund for the time and money he’s cost me. He has taught me so much about dogs, bully breeds, people, and even myself and has changed so much in just twelve short months. I’m sure no one besides me can tell much difference in these photos (top from the day we got him, bottom from a few hours ago), but I see a nervous, skinny little boy fresh out of abandonment at a shelter growing into a confident, handsome young dog who knows he is loved. Happy “gotcha day,” Krieger, here’s to many more. <3

In which my dog naming decision was reinforced, yet again.

I don't know you at all or anything but I just picked you out of a lineup from some blog promo post or some such, so I just wanted to say that I really appreciate how wonderfully you take care of your pit bull. That's all,

Thank you! I really appreciate that because I do put a lot of time and effort into him and it’s hard sometimes, especially financially…I actually JUST finished paying off a loan for his obstruction surgery today! And then he’s doing the teenage-dog thing so about 30% of the time he’s just a straight-up jerk, haha. But he’s worth his weight in gold to me, I wouldn’t trade him for anything. c:

Tug tug tug!

Totally in LOVE with Krieger&#8217;s new collar! ♥♥♥
It&#8217;s a 2&#8221; wide &#8220;Bullet&#8221;  design from Ella&#8217;s Lead.

It’s a 2” wide “Bullet”  design from Ella’s Lead.

This scene is part of why I named my dog Krieger.
