Truly Man's Best Friend
We had lost our previous dog of countless years to old age and as those of you who know, its seems impossible to bring yourself to have another. It was our youngest daughter who's persistence resulted in our newest family member. She had come to a place in her life where having a dog had become very important. So, we over came the emotional resistance and my wife performed what can only be considered the very best research possible as she came home July 2009 with Fonzie. Fonzie is a Chihuahua Italian Greyhound mix who was a rescued from a kill shelter.
His initial behavior was one of a timid, quiet and respectful dog. Kind of the last in line but grateful to be in line type of dog.
Slowly he has come to trust us and feel that he has arrived in his home.
Fonzie is extremely energetic, fast on his feet and in his mind.
Today, he believes he is our youngest child. And he exercises that position with all the entitlement and privilege that it bestows as he demonstrates here by making my chair in the sun room his throne.
Fonzie's personality, intelligence, loyalty and love personifies why a dog is referred to as a man's best friend.
