Khalija came to us when he was approx. 3 months old! He was what you would call a "repo dog" meaning the breeder sold him to someone on a payment plan and the buyer failed to pay and had the dog in a poor situation. We received a call from the breeder asking if we were still interested in a puppy, which at the time we were not. We had moved into a small apartment with not much of a yard and very little time to train or deal with a puppy. But, once King and I set our eyes on him we instantly fell in love. He became our baby and our lives revolved around his needs.
This is Zeus aka Baby Love. This precious little boy was in no way planned or expected at all! We were at a friends house playing cards when we noticed a smell of gasoline, come to find out the neighbor had poured kerosine on his female pit and her litter of puppies! He was being evicted if he didn't find homes for them and since he wasn't having any luck he decieded to kill them. There were 3 puppies that lived, 2 girls and 1 boy. King was dead set on not getting another dog but I couldn't help but want to help these poor helpless babies. Knowing I couldn't take all 3 of them with me I did what I thought was best, I called Animal Control and gave the man $45 to take the little boy home with me. At the time he fit in Kings hand. At only 3 weeks old we took him home with us and that is where I became is Mama doing everything she would to keep him alive and safe!
Khalija is 3 with his birthday being on Valentine's Day. He is a very lazy laid back fella! He hates cats, birds, and more times then not vehicles that aren't ones he can ride in! He is a Daddy's Boy! He paces, cries and whines when his Daddy is away. Being very protective over his home he keeps us informed with things are not the way they should be! He is our "lookout"!
Then there is Zeus, who started out sooooo tiny is now a solid 90lbs is the biggest lover in the world! He wants to hug and kiss and cuddle. He knows no wrong! He is a stong willed little man! He is brave and has powered back from some things that most dogs would probably pass away from. His most recent being a blood clot. But it didn't slow him down or stop him! He just keeps on ticking like the pink bunny! Zeus is a Mama's Boy and wants to be where ever I am! He is not a big fan of car rides and when in a car he wants to sit on my lap and suck on my finger! We still at 2 years old why he does this but, it doesn't bother me and it keeps him happy!
There you have it these are my four legged babies that changed our lives! As I said before King and I don't have children together but these boys are our babies!
