Rufus Featured on Dogster

I am so excited Rufus was featured on Dogster for the diary of the day on Tuesday.

Happy Birthday B & R

Yesterday was Brutus and Rufus’s 3rd birthday. I cant belive they are already 3! It has been 17 months since they first graced this house. I love them so much! Happy Birthday Angels.

With dinner last night they were each given a ham shank and a beef femur. They chewed until they couldnt hold their heads up any more.

More Pix with Shades

It will NOT stop raining…. I swear it hasnt stopped for more than a couple of days since September. This is definately the wettest year I can remember. So we have had to entertain ourselves inside. Last night I took some more pictures of Brutus and Rufus with sunglasses on… They are such hams.

Boring Lazy Day

We did a whole lot of nothing today… it was a lazy day. Brutus went for a ride to pick up my son from wrestling practice and Achillies went for a ride to the store… other than that we were lazy and loved it.

Here is a picture of Rufus I took last night… he is styling with my sunglasses on.

Meet My Pack…

Hello, my name is Lora and here is my pack. We live at a dog park in central Ohio. My pack consists of 4 Labrador Retrievers and 2 Saint Bernards. Lets meet the pack.

THE LABS

Zeus is a 4 1/2 year old Black Lab who was purchased from a breeder at 8 weeks of age. He is my Alpha dog and very smart. He was such a great dog, I decided to get another one. He is considered my son’s dog. Hera, is a 6 year old Black Lab. She was picked up as a stray by the dog warden and spent about 5 months at the shelter before I found her to adopt. She is my busy body and is always on the go. She is amazingly athletic, loves to swim and fast as lightning. Apollo is a 3 year old Yellow Lab. He is Zeus’s brother. They have the same mother. I purchased him when he was 5 weeks of age. He is my cuddle bunny and a total mommies boy. He loves to go bye-bye and sleep with us. He loves to run and play with toys. Eris is a 5 1/2 year old Chocolate Lab. I have had her for just over two years. She had a rocky start to life as a breeding dog for an Amish puppy mill. She was horribly mistreated and when she had to have a c-section with her final litter, they sold her at auction for a measly $50. Luckily a rescue organization picked her up and I adopted her from them.

THE SAINTS

Brutus and Rufus are 3 year old litter mates. They came to me at 18 months old when their previous owner could no longer keep them. I never intended to keep them, I planned to adopt them through my rescue but quickly found they were very dependant on each other and had a hard time when separated. I decided it would be very difficult to adopt them together and make sure they stayed together so I kept them myself. I am so glad I did! I love them so much and they have grown on me.
