Ruger update

Hi yall. Tigers doing great. It's been a rough month or so. We evacuated due to florance and went to friends in ohio. It was a lot, Being our first hurricane and all. We were blessed with minimal damage. It did throw off our routine and Ruger back foot swelled up as we headed back home from our friends in ohio. Took him to the vet they said it was a bug bite. It went down and he's back to normal. He also had blood in his stool for about 12 hours. Vet said stress. It was stressful. He was back to normal very quickly. I just got a walk and train head halter and wow I love it. He pulls next to none with it. He does try and rub his face now and then to get it off but nothing crazy. He really didn't pull too bad but after evacuating and our routine thrown off with walking he was pulling much more than before and I don't want to yank him to pieces so the head halter really is a great tool for that. Im posting some new pics! Hope all is well with everyone. 20181031_130424.jpg 20181031_130420.jpg Snapchat-1960482451.jpg

Great update, and sorry you had to go through the evacution. I totally agree with your feedback on the headhalter. We started using one for walks and it really does make a difference.

Ruger has gotten so big! He is very handsome. I love his uncropped ears.
I'm sorry about the hurricane. I know how hard it can be. I'm glad you and your family are safe, and only had minimal damage.

Thanks girl, his ears were a big decision for us and since we didn't know or trust a vet when the window for cropping came we decided against it. He's a big lovey cuddle bug! We love him so much! He's definitely the one for us! So thankful he's part of our pack! We def got blessed with minimal damage from florance and don't take that for granted. Logan's a big boy as well and so handsome! I bet it so fun watching him come into his own!

I'm so glad he's doing so well! He looks a little like a DDB in the face. He's very masculine. I'm sure he's a great deterrent!

Logan, like Ruger, is coming into his own. Thanks for the compliments. He is unlike any dog I've ever had. He's smart, and strong willed. But also watchful and loves affection. I love Molossers!
