Challenge picture

Hello Everyone! Princess Fiona here to accept this challenge. The goal is to go to the 5th folder on your computer and pick the 5th picture. I could not go to the right folder but I did go to my Mommy's "pet" folder. Unfortunately, it is not of me but of my little Sister Noelle. I remember this day very well. Mommy and Daddy had just brought this thing home and were not quite sure of how I would react yet. So they put her in a smaller fenced in area of our fenced in yard. That way I could sniff her without her being in any danger. As if she would be. Like always, I was perfect. I was not completely sure of what she was, but I knew that I could not be rough with her. As she got bigger I got a little bit rougher, but not once did I cause her to yelp or cry out in pain. She DID however get me a few times.

Freckles

Wooo hooo, I get to try this now!

My name is Freckles and I am just over a year old. I'm not supposed to be living here anymore but my Mommy wouldn't let HER Mommy and Daddy get rid of me. (hee hee hee)

My Meemaw (the one that does all this typing for us) is part of this group on the computer thingy called Freecycle. Well one day she read this thing that said that someone had a "Pit Bull" and they were afraid it would hurt their little kids. That "Pit Bull" was me even though that's not even what I am. I am a Boxer/Lab mix, and we think I have a bit of Greyhound thrown in. Well, my Meemaw loves the "Pit Bull" type doggies and was really mad when she read that they were scared of a little puppy so she went to get me. She thought she would pick me up and keep me for just a little bit until she could find a good home for me. I guess a lot of people do mean things to the "Pit Bull" doggies and she didn't want that to happen to me.
She went to get me and the other people had kept me all locked up by myself with no food, water or even lights and heat. I was really really scared so I cried a lot. Meemaw could hear me but couldn't get to me until the other people brought me out. I was only about 2 months old so I don't know why they thought I'd hurt anyone.

She brought me home and I got to meet Fiona and Noelle. Fiona didn't really care about me too much at first but Noelle did. It was so nice to have someone to play with and I chased her all around the yard. Fiona warmed up to me after awhile, but from the very start Noelle thought I was her very own little puppy.

When my Mommy saw me she made a lot of noise like she was hurt, but really she was just really excited to see me. She begged and cried and whined until her Mommy, who is my Meemaw, said that she could keep me but that she would have to pay for all my stuff. She said yes so now I am here to stay!!!

I'm not a really really smart doggie, but I AM really really nice. I am a little bit ascared of strangers but I don't bite them or anything, I just run away and hide behind my Mommy. I listen to what I'm told really good as long as I understand what exactly it is that I am being told to do. Sometimes I get really really confused and then I just lay down.

Fiona really loves me now and I spend most of the time with her. Noelle still loves me a lot but she scares me when she gets cranky.

My Mommy works and goes to school so I don't get to see her very much but I really really love when I DO get to spend time with her. Sometimes I wiggle around so much that my hip and my nose touch. Meemaw laughs at me when I do that because I walk that way and I look like a donut. My favourite things to do are to get dirty, get wet, get dirty again, chase Fiona and Noelle and cuddle with my Mommy, Meemaw and the Man Person. I know they really love me cuz they tell me I'm a good girl all the time, even if I have a really really confused day or if I get really really dirty!

Our mission statement

Hi everyone! We are the Bully Breed Buddies. Our names are...

Princess Fiona (American Staffordshire Terrier)

Noelle (American Pitbull Terrier)

and Freckles (Boxer/Lab mix)

and we are here to tell you all about our adventures together. Our Mommy and Daddy want us to help fight BSL.

BSL is a scary thing. It tries to get rid of all animals who look like us, just because some of us turn out to be not so good. Even though MOST of us are great, some people like to try and turn us mean, either by training us that way, neglecting us, or by breeding the meanest dogs they can find. A lot of the time they mix other breeds in with us to make us bigger and stronger. But people who support BSL think we should ALL die. It doesn't matter if we are therapy pets, police K-9s or just our owner's best friend, in their opinion all bully breeds are bad.

Thankfully there are a lot of people who are on our side. Caesar Milan, Rachael Raye, Micheal J. Fox and millions of everyday people believe in us and know that our hearts are good. They know that if we are treated properly and given the discipline, exercise and love that we need, we will almost always turn out good. Of course, every once in awhile a dog will come around who is just unstable. That happens with poodles, chihuahuas and labs too! It doesn't mean that we should all be killed for it!

With the next blog we'll introduce ourselves separately so you can get to know who we are. This blog won't be all serious and scary with political stuff. Most of the time it will just be our lives with our people.

Thanks for reading and don't be afraid to comment at any time. After all, we won't bite!
