I seldom write anything personal. This is one of those rare moments.
A long, loooong time back, during an in-game conversation I had mentioned about posting some some pics here. As the RNG goes, I did’nt get to doing it for this reason and then that reason, such a slacker sometimes 🙂
It has been so long since that first chat that things have undergone some serious change. Lol, the following pics will serve as the timeline.
“Bulldog”
Meet my friend, Brutus Diesel. He’d been watching the rain falling and got a little sleepy-eyed. Although my friend, his “owner” is my niece. Her and hubbys’ nickname for him is Bully. Being a somewhat minimalist myself, I just call him “Bulldog.” Bulldog is a Victorian. A very lovable breed, extreamly easy going most of the time (when not on a stubborn streak), and believes he’s human. Pushing 85 pounds or so, he’s out-grown the puppy lap dog ability. But someone forgot to tell him and he still believes in utilizing that ability to it’s fullest potential.
Bulldog comes from a long line of pedigreed and notable ancestors. So darling niece and hubby decided one day he needed a girlfriend. Along came Bella. Also Victorian, but the sembelance stops there. Quite the dominate female, she’s more of a nip/bite first and ask questions later sort. Bulldog was taught to “not hurt the baby.” And no matter what she did to him over time, he still won’t defend himself when they occasionally argue.
Bulldog and Bella
They grew into quite a pair though, always doing and getting into things together. As opposite as they were in temperment, they managed to meld it together becoming a force/team to be reckoned with.
Bella came into her first heat cycle. Bulldog was a year and a half virgin as well. His curiousity and instincts heightened. It was quite harlarious at first, her being so much smaller. But determination and certain people’s lack of paying attention led to the inevitable. What was two…..is now eight.

**and I had nothing to do with all those names 😀
At the time of this writing, the Bulldog crew is some two weeks of age. Eyes are beginning to open and they have discovered “mobility.” All wobblely, like Bambi style, but none the less effective. Escape from the kennel/cage carrier is on the rise. Despite her youth, Bella has turned out to be quite the “Mom.” Her attitude has undergone some adjustments to the better, and all seems quite well. As for Bulldog and I, we just sit and watch all the melee and confusion in progress, lol! He is definately not sure what to think about all these furry things moving about.
(my apology if pics seem grain-ie. they were taken on one of those fancy phone things)
