I approached a masked intruder outside my house w/ my Chopweiler! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" />

Ok, maybe it’s not what you expected, but it got ya to click the link. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> This little guy has been hanging around a couple days. At first, Dad warned me to stay away from him, because he was afraid he was sick or diseased because he wasn’t scared of people. Today Dad said earlier today he came from behind the house when he got home, walked up to him, and started rubbing/leaning on his legs like a cat. Now it seems that he’s someone’s pet who was dumped in the country, or he escaped.

I went to take Sallie outside and I saw him on the porch. She went nuts, so I took her back in the house and shut her in a room before they could fight. We all went outside to get a look at him. Dad said he doesn’t think he knows how to eat in the wild. We grabbed some dog food and a bowl of water for him. He was very hungry and eagerly gobbled it up. He’s pretty tame, and lets us touch and pet him.

Here’s a pic of him on top of the cooler on the porch.


Then Dad said he wondered if he’d eat some apples from our trees. So I ran down to the trees in the front yard, and grabbed an apple for him, and my Chopweiler from the truck. I used my Chopweiler to cut up the apple for him into smaller pieces.






Quite tasty…I might have to pick more for myself tomorrow. We have 3 apple trees, 1 pear tree, 4 peach trees, and 3 black walnuts.


Hey little guy, “How do you like them apples?” <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />


He made a muddy mess all over the cooler with his wet feet.


After he was full, he went for a rest under Dad who was sitting in the rocking chair.


After a filling meal, time to clean up…


And nothin’ beats a good belly stretch after a big meal. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />


I hope you guys enjoyed the pics. I dunno how long he’ll stick around, but maybe I’ll get some more pics of him later. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />
