Bones is an approximately 6 year old Black German Shepherd. While he appears to be pure blooded and is said to have been, we don't really have any proof. Bones came to live with us on accident. A friend of ours had a friend that was in need of a place to take his dog ASAP, while he was struggling with finding a home for himself. Bones is very sweet and loving but also suffers from separation anxiety. He can not STAND it when anyone leaves the house, doesn't matter who it is. He isn't relaxed and comfortable unless ALL of HIS people that live in HIS house are as inside where they belong, with HIM.
My husband had been shooting ideas to me about wanting a German Shepherd for a couple of months prior to Bones living with us. I kept telling him "No, they are too big" and "Our house is too small for a big dog right now." I had hoped that this would be some motivation to work towards getting a bigger house, maybe something out in the country. When the idea of Bones coming to stay with us came up, I figured it would he the perfect opportunity for him to see just how small our house was for a big dog. He took a little getting used to, a few of us got knocked down, cups swiped off the coffee table by a tail, food at nose level on the counter stolen, and the trash has been raided several times. All of these issues weren't even on our radar because Koda was so short and so little, but Bones, has brought EVERY possible thing to light that a BIG dog could.
After a few months, Bones' owner asked us if there was any way we would be able to keep him. My husband and I decided that there was absolutely no way that we could tell him no. My plan had BACKFIRED! Everyone in my house, including me fell in love with the BIG dog. He has his own fluffy Doggie Bed that he lays on at night, he's been Vet checked, new food to help him gain more weight, new toys, and a whole BIG family that adores him.
Bones is Home.
Have a wonderful day dear followers!
