DISCO

Here is is laying on his stomach on HIS own desk chair- with HIS pillow underneath him. and HIS two blankets on top of him. He is resting, but is has one eye open to check that things are running smoothly in our household.

If I go upstairs he comes up and if I go downstairs he comes down. That is true for everyone here - he has divided his day up to be able to spend time with all four of us. True. He is a four people dog.

When I say a four person dog, I mean four and only four.

He WILL NOT TOLERATE anyone or anything else!

We have had Disco for eight years now. He was a rescue dog - they found outside - and he was about two years old. They said that he had been abused. He trots with the front going a titch to the left and his back side a titch right. I am not sure what that means, but he walked that way from the beginning.

It was love at first site and it has been this way ever since.

My grandson loves this dog very much.

Now you do not have to tell me he is spoiled - all my grands and kids are spoiled. That is the way we tend to roll here - not saying it is good or bad - it is just the way it is.

Disco is THE BEST DOG EVER except for two things.

I think he thinks he is a person and deserves all the rights and privileges as us.

He LOVES to go out and ride - and when we don't take him - his revenge side comes out. Believe it or not he will go and pee on the kitchen floor by the chair of the person he is mad at. When we go out we gate him out of carpeted areas because who knows what he would do.

Now I am not thrilled about that - but I can clean it up with disinfectant and the floor is as good as new. It is only in the kitchen and not the wooden floors thank goodness.

He loves the color pink - I am not sure he knows or sees it's pink but it is the only color of toys he will play with.

Now the 2nd and biggest problem we have is that he is fiercely sweet to us - but to anyone - anything - door bells - other animals - friends coming over - the vet - he is MEAN!
He is not that big - but boy he acts like he weighs 200 pounds. I have seen grown men cower from him.

His hair on the back of his neck down his spine actually stands up - like a cat.

He will bite too.

You can put him in a room and close the door - he will not stop barking no matter how long he is in there.

At the vet he has to be muzzled - we told the vet we should get the Dog Whisperer to come and he said it would not help poor Disco. They only take cases he thinks he can help!

We have theories as to why he is like this, but we don't really know.

It is like he has two personalities.
I do think he has something mental going on - but the touch of the matter is he is GREAT to us!

I guess truth be told - he is in the perfect family because we are dysfunctional too!
