My doggie ...

There is a funny story about my dog, he was bought out of an ad in the paper... he was advertised as an eight week old beagle.  When we got there I didn't think he looked like a beagle, but I had to talk my husband into a dog in the first place and was NOT going to say a word when he picked out this adorable puppy.
It was some sort of "hound" dog, but what I just didn't know.
We took him to the vet and were told he was only 6 weeks old... (ut oh!  gonna be a big dog at this size) and that he was "mixed" not a beagle...
So our little dog grew and grew...not let me also explain, I am basically in a city row house.... VERY SMALL city row house and as our puppy grew, I realized he was NOT going to be a lap dog, was not going to be small in any way and that just turning around in our living room was enough to allow his tail to clear off the coffee table.
(sigh), but we love him.
That brings us to this past week...our mouthy, barking, mixed dog is very territorial...and at 5 years old, he knows that he is master of his back yard so when some dogs came to the fence he was all over them with the big bark... Then suddenly they jumped up and unlatched the fence... nothing to keep them apart!
The one that is mixed with Pit Bull jumped our poor mixed dog and got a hold of his legs..
My son got them apart, which makes him my hero! and we had to get our dog in the house to see how bad he was hurt... to date the owner of the other dog has not been here.
Ours went to the Vet ER and got treated for him wounds... they are not horrible... I just wanted to ensure he was going to be ok...  The good news is he is OK!  and we finally were told what he actually is... he is Jango Fet the Fox Hound!  and possibly a bit of grey hound, but mostly Fox Hound.  So now when someone asks we don't have to tell them he is a Texas Beagle anymore (everything is bigger in TX) (get it?)

Here are a couple pictures of the punctures in his leg ...

Now to find a good picture of how cute my Fox Hound is and what they tried to pass off as a Beagle!

Well that was the big happenings for the holidays here... Hope all was great for your holidays!
