More preteen saga

The new generation is always different. I find it very funny that if there is anything significant in Drake's life he makes a powerpoint presentation about it.

I guess that also speaks to the most recent chapter in our saga. He made an RIP memorial powerpoint to our dog, who may actually have to be euthanized now. Harry bit the same girl, again. This time pretty bad.

Kind of a long story, Sadie had two friends over playing in the back yard. One of them is kind of a roving neighborhood hooligan always getting into trouble. Drake happened to be watching them out the back window and saw that she was about to fall of this ladder that the boys had shoddily constructed this weekend for fun.

He failed to shut the door behind him and Harry made a beeline for the girl he bit before. She is the one whose dog is his nemesis, they let him rove freely down the alley and he marks our fence and Harry gets really worked up about it. Seeing as he is blind as a bat and not that smart, I am pretty sure it is just an instinct thing based on smell.

That and he clearly was improperly socialized and neglected as a puppy, so it is really quite atypical of the breed. He hasn't shown any aggression to anyone else including children so I am pretty sure he isn't a general public safety concern, except this girl.

So I am not sure what is going to happen. I will have to talk to the county people today. I am definitely going to have the breeders investigaged, and I have been too lazy to do it previously.

Advice to anyone wanting a dog... do your homework. I guess the breeder really does matter and I wasn't just safe getting a type of dog that I thought would be good no matter what.

The thing is we are so bonded to him that we aren't sorry we got him and are going to try really hard to save him. Probably will involve a lot of hassle and money, at the very least.
