Devil Dog
When your dogs’ eyes are crossed and bulging out of their sockets is the moment you should think your night is going to suck. My girlfriend and I adopted a Boston Terrier puppy about a year ago and in my girlfriend's words, “He is such a lil cutie!” In reality though, he is the spawn of the devil. If you were to take any advice away from reading anything I write, please let it be this, do not get a dog until you are sure of it. Simon, my Boston, is a sweetheart deep, deep, deep down, but normally his ears are always perked and his mind is always racing. I have trained him day after day so he is not stupid, but he is an energizer bunny on crack. He knows how to sit, stay, lay down, and even roll over. Simon lives his life in luxury, being walked and fed everyday, what more can a dog ask for?
There are some good times that make up for the bad, but when those bad times are on, it’s game over. Like I said before, when his eyes bulge and he starts to pant heavily is when you know shit is about to hit the fan. Simon is neutered, but he still loves to hump my arm. I think, he thinks, that by humping me he is showing me dominance and I can’t stand it. Looking into his eyes as they are intently staring off into the distance, as he is thrusting his neutered male parts against my arm is like looking into the depths of hell. When we leave him alone for hours at a time he finds a way to jump onto each and every single thing in our house. Remember, he is only 2 feet off the ground and this little guy can jump. I love my dog, but he is a handful for sure. Again, any advice you take away let it be this: have a human child before you adopt a puppy. Especially, a puppy on crack.
