I have an unusual dog. Not unusual in her breed, she’s a pit bull and shepard mix, but unusual in that she has a bit of an anxiety issue. She doesn’t deal well with our absence, nor does she deal well with correction. I feel terrible every time I have to do it. But what can you do when she takes to chewing up anything she can get a hold of when we’re gone? On most days, she doesn’t do this, but in some cases I think she gets too worked up about us leaving the house.
When she’s not dealing with those issues she’s a hell of a dog. Loyal, goofy, and an all around great pet, Roxy is one of the best pets I’ve ever had. Too bad she likes my wife better than me, but what are you going to do when she’s the one who brought her home and stayed with her while I was at work? That and she’s timid around men. She didn’t trust me at first for that reason, I think, but now I’m just a regular part of the family. Strangers, on the other hand, are another story.
Can you stay mad at that face??? Come on? It’s pretty much impossible with her looking so darn cute. Well, at least I can’t stay mad.
In spite of some of the things she does to get you riled up, you can’t be mad at that face for too long. She’s just a great looking dog, and has a lovable disposition. She gets along with most people pretty well, unless they do something that makes her nervous once, then she’s timid around them until they build up some trust again.
Anyway, my wife is an excellent photographer, and takes plenty of photos of our animals, so thanks for this one.
