    We never tried to make him something he wasn’t. He never liked dogs, even when he was a puppy. My attitude was like “okay dude, I guess that’s your deal. I can respect that”. He was an otherwise incredibly intelligent and well behaved dog, he just wanted all other dogs who approached him, except for his girlfriend, to die and burn in hell forever.

    He was fine being around other dogs as long as they left him alone. He could run and play at the dog park unleashed and would just ignore everything except for his ball. But if another dog started running over, I would have to call him back and leash him because he didn’t appreciate his space being encroached. He always obeyed the call to come. It didn’t matter if there was a squirrel riding a cat, while wearing a top hat, he would ignore them if I told him to come.

    He was the bestest boy I’ve ever known. He passed away a few months ago and we sorely miss him. There are no dogs that could replace him.

      Sorry you lost your pup! We used to have 4 and we’re down to 2. If only they’d stick around forever.

        Yeah it’s such a cruel twist of fate that such perfect little creatures reach the end of their lives right about the time a human child would be driving, getting a part-time job, dating, etc. We’re not sure if we’ll ever get another dog. Idk if we can stand the heartbreak. But they sure are amazing companions while they’re here.

        Sorry about your pups too.
