I like how all of my posts have been about animals. But i finally after years of wanting animals, (see previous blog entry) finally have one!
For the fourth of july my family goes up to my cousins cabins. My cousin was fostering a dog, and my family and I fell in love with this little boy! His name is Fritz, we did not name him. He is from a shelter in a few cities over. He is two years old and we think he may have been abused because he is very afraid of men and people holding sticks.
The first two days we had him he barked whenever my dad or brother walked into a room. The second night my sister and I went out and Fritz was alone with my dad, it did not go well. Fritz was on the top of the stairs laying there, barking loudly everytime my dad walked by. Last night was a little different though. My sister and I left for my moms house for a couple of days and he really was a good dog, did not bark at all to my dad, on the contrary he followed my dad around the whole night. He is (thankfully) getting over his fear of my dad, and I think what did it was my dad carried treats around with him everywhere and regularly tossed him a couple.
My childhood dream is now a reality, I never thought it would ever happen.
