We decided to try again with becoming dog owners except this time an already trained and older but still full of energy so we found an ad in the buy and sell. The ad said free to a good home. We were quite surprised because usually those ads that I've been seeking were nothing but scams but I decided to call the number anyway. I was the first caller and I couldn't believe these people were giving away an American Bulldog for free. Their story was that they had an infant who was starting to stand up on his own and this dog was too big and that because of his size, he would accidently knock over the child as this dog loves children so they wanted to find a good home for him.
The next day we took a ride to go look at the dog and fell in love with him at first site. He greeted us by wagging his tail and started kissing my son with licks like crazy. His previous owners showed us some tricks and things that the dog already knew. We ended up bringing him home and we were and still are so very impressed with him. The old owners also gave us a Ceaser Mulan book for us to read.. but we don't see any reason to read it because he's so well mannered.
When we walk him everyone stares at us and takes pictures of him or just wants to know what kind of dog he is. He's pretty much a celebrity in this town! He seems to bring the best out of all walks of life, children, adults and even other dogs.
Do you have a dog that gives you the feelings of happiness?

Yeah when we brought Lennox home and walked with him we just couldn't believe the amounts of compliments we were getting. These elders always sit outside their apartments and when we walk by they just have to come and pet him. One lady even comments by saying next time bring his saddle haha. He's a big boy.

Thanks for your comment

Lennox looks like a gorgeous looking dog. He got an excellent home with you. It is amazing to read that you got him from a free ad. He was well trained and simply so large and excited that he knocks children over. It is lovely that he is so admired in your local area and is building up his own fan club. An American bull dog to buy would be expensive I imagine and so people would never guess how you got him.

I have got two miniature poodles. Secret is white with black patches and Magic is plain black. I got Secret from a professional dog breeder. She loves dogs and has many poodles in her home on the furniture. I got Magic from a was a novice breeder. She came from a busy and happy family home with young children.

I hope that you will have lots of fun with your adorable Lennox the dog. happyhappyhappy

I have to give the previous owners credit for training Lennox so well.
I also love little miniture any kind of dogs.. my neighbor has three.. a chuwawa (spelling is wrong) a min pin and a cross chuwawa and pug. They are very yappy but I don't mind because they make us aware if something is going on outside.
Apparently Lennox's dad Cowboy was a champion winner too.

I have three dogs: A Great Dane/German Shepherd mix, a Rottweiler/Australian mix, and a purebred Miniature Alaskan Spitz. All three of them were adopted or rescued by me, and surprisingly enough, my purebred dog was also given away freely to me. All three of my dogs make me smile and are special to me in some way, and I love all three of them dearly.

When I take the Spitz out in public, people can't help but "ohh" and "ahh" over her! She is adorable. Small, but not too small, pure white with big brown eyes - she looks kind of like an Arctic Fox, and she loves everyone! She never barks or growls, and she just wants to be friends with everyone she meets. She's also a celebrity everywhere she goes.

The Great Dane mix is one of the most intelligent, loving dogs I have ever met in my entire life. She suffers from that being too big problem, like your dog, but she's the sweetest thing! She sleeps in my bed, ha, with me every night, and she is so smart. There's nothing I can't train her to do, and nothing that I haven't attempted to train her that she didn't pick up in just a day or two. In fact, it only took a week to house train her.

And the Rottweiler mix - well, she's special, to say the least. She doesn't seem to have manners, but this is just because she wants to be everyone's friend. She loves to cuddle and play, and she has a habit of sporadicately bursting into what we call 'dancing'.

All three of my dogs are my 'babies'. But then again, doesn't every pet owner feel that way?

Oh for sure we do happy. Our Lennox loves puzzles and games. We play a game with his food with him. We will line up about four kibbles in a row and he will wait until you point to which one you want him to take. He's pretty smart.
Your dogs sound really sweet raineyes and I'm sure they are the perfect company too.
Thanks for your comment

I think I know how you're feeling about nothing being right around your home without a dog. Before we got Lennox, we didn't know what we were missing but now that we have him I couldn't imagine this household without him now.

that's a big boy!
what a sweet face though..he looks like a happy dog.

i'm fond of afghan hounds,i would like to get another,we had one when i was a kid.


myLot reputation of 96/100. nixxi76 (1244)   ranked 1,139 out of 7,859 in dogs  3 years ago

I had to go to google and do a search for what an afghan hound was and now it's all coming back to me. I've seen those types of dogs before. They are big dogs but very slender. I'm not sure if I would get one without doing research about them but you should get one since you've had one already.
Lennox is a pretty happy dog yes and thanks for the comment happy
