We have a "guard dog on duty". I got the sign. He's a craigslist rescue.

Don't know how to insert his pic?

Those sites assign your photo a URL so you can post them

I use post images.org

He was living on a chain when we got him. Getting close to the end of the line for him...2nd time on Craiglist. He's very muscular and owners were concerned someone would get him for a fighting dog!

Wish they could play together! He's very sociable!

To be fair, the owner knew it was wrong but didn't have options. He said his other dogs turned on Jagger in their big pen, so he had to turn him out.

At least he was aware enough to find him a suitable home.

We love him so much. It was a mutual rescue!

treatment of little ones.

Ours had a chain around her neck with a padlock attached that had to be cut off.

Not large in stature. Landed at shelter. Very soon after, adoption agency took her. A month l8r we became her parents.


They said she alert barks. An understatement. Loves to sit in the front door. Full size glass storm door. Don't care for people using sidewalk, neighborhood dogs being nicely walked, cars driving by. What izzit with the mail truck? She jumps halfway up the door. And the accompanying bark....😱 😆

When she's walked, friendly with most everyone. Gets pets. She's particularly fond of all the males. ? 🤔

She on daddy's lap a lot. Sleeps with mommie. I think its a protective thing. Getting ready for in home training soon.

God bless for saving yours!

protecting us from invading ferals. Nose to nose with a feral masquerading as his twin to weasel his way across the border - fortunately, like you, we have an invisible wall that kept him out.
