Gizmo Update

A couple of people have asked me for an update on Gizmo, so I thought I'd better get to it. After all, he has a new jacket to show off, as you can see in my avatar. Actually it's too small but we couldn't resist taking a few pics before we took it off. We've been walking more with our dogs and it's going to be getting so cold so I thought he needed something warm to wear. He doesn't have a lot of hair and that wind can really get whippin' out here where we live. Brrrr...

His tongue still sticks out 98% of the time. It's just as dry as it can be, but it doesn't seem to bother him any. I guess that's all he knows. Sometimes he'll get a bird feather stuck right on the tip of his nose and he can't get it because his little tongue comes out sideways when he licks. He requires a little help! He sleeps under the covers now. He's quite content to be as close to me in bed as possible UNTIL DH comes to bed. He LOVES sleeping next to DH (so do I, but oh well!:p). Since we were told it was a man who broke his little jaw, it's nice to know that he can trust again. He has the best little spirit. You would never know he had been hurt. He's one of the happiest dogs we've ever had. He's really smart too. I can teach him something in 5 minutes no problem.

His health is really good - no more trouble with his jaw. I think he's finally healed.

We feel so blessed to have him as a part of our family. He's the best!

Melody - yup, we just love that little tongue of his. It just makes everything he does more adorable. :) I FINALLY visited Wil's page. What an awesome little guy you have there! He's an inspiration, isn't he?

OMG!! That picture is so cute!! I think you're an excellent pet photographer. Have you considered doing this for a living? I'm not kidding--you're really good at it! Oh, and thanks for the update.
 
Thanks so much for the update, Suz. So glad he's doing better. He's so cute in his coat & I think his tongue is precious too! I love dogs & have a border collie mix who will be 15 in a couple of months. She's slowing down & sleeps a lot now but still hanging in there. My DH & I love her SO MUCH! So I know how much Gizmo means to you (& your family) & also how much you mean to him too. You are both very lucky to have each other!

Thanks again,
Kel
 
Oh Suz, he is soooooo adorable. You are such a wonderful dog mom! I am glad you got him and he seems to be so happy. I LOVE that little tongue sticking out :) and the outfit is just perfect for him. As someone said before you should be a pet photographer.

Your dogs are living proof how wonderful pitbulls can be if they are treated like they are supposed to! Thank God for people like you and your DH!

Thanks you guys!

Kel - wow, a 15 year old dog! Good for you. I hope Gizmo lives that long. :)

Michele - unfortunately I can't take the credit for the photos. It's my DH who is the photographer. He is amazingly talented. You should see the awesome pictures I have in my office. He likes to take his photographs and turn them into paintings with a program on the computer. I'll have to post some of them on my Picture Trail album.
