When we brought him home he was quite a handful. He was not properly housetrained, therefore many accidents to clean. He was aggressive and just not happy. My husband wanted to return him to AWL on several occasions, but I refused. A pet is not something you just ‘return’ like a pair of shoes that don’t fit. He didn’t ask for a crappy beginning to his life. We needed to love him through this and we did. Fast forward to now. He is such a lovey little guy. He still has occasional accidents but nothing like before. When he occasionally growls, we say, ‘No growlies!’ and he stops. All he wants to do is please us. He plays nicely with his big brother, Wally, and makes us laugh all the time. I can’t imagine life without him in it.
