I was so afraid.
We drove 2 hours to meet the rescue dog and I knew I'd fall in love, but that didn't change the fact that perhaps he could be aggressive toward our others.
He was obviously used as the bait in the dog fights they have here.
The scars.
Oh, the scars.
Hundreds of them and some, really deep.
It's heartbreaking.
When he was dumped at the side of the road, the people who found him rushed him to a vet to take care of the horrifically terrible gouge on his chest.
They kept him in their yard while searching for someone to rescue him and give him the loving home he needs to repair his past.
They weren't taking any chances with their own Fuzzy Family by introducing him to them.
I don't blame them.
However, I suppose the poor thing was just not a very good fighting dog, as they wouldn't have just tossed him and his chain off to the side of the road if the fucktards thought he was worth keeping.
So, that gave me confidence that MAYBE, just maybe The Thug wasn't going to kill our dogs, but you still never know.
We picked up Pathetic Puppy from the AAAS after being sterilized and damn! The Thug got a woody upon seeing her.
The Thug spent the rest of the ride home wanting desperately to get to the girl in the back.
I sat with her to protect her from the horndog in the front, and held on to his leash in front that was tied up to the holy-fuck-handle.
That damn handle comes in handy for more than just white knuckling it while Papi drives like a lunatic.
Anyway.
I still couldn't be sure if The Thug's pecker hanging out was for excitement of love, or excitement at getting in a fight.
Well, when we got home, we put Pathetic Puppy upstairs for her post-op rest, and released The Thug out to the rest of the hounds.
Unbelievable.
He fit in right away.
Everyone likes him.
Everyone got along.
The Donkey is thoroughly enjoying running around with him and The Thug is thoroughly enjoying marking everything he possibly can.
I hope the hundreds of scars on his head and body fade, as much as I hope his memories of a previous life do the same.
He's quite lovely and cuddly, even though I am definitely allergic to him.
I have welts and hives all over.
That doesn't matter.
Just means I'll have to wash my hands and arms a little more frequently.
Or hop in the ocean.
So far, he's working out just fine, and the AAAS will be PROMPTLY removing his balls tomorrow to dispel his testosterone.
Something else that is working out fine, is having let out my now not so secret secret.
So far, I haven't had too many people tell me I'm doing the worst thing possible.
The shame and embarrassment are pretty hard surrounding this.
Yet, that glass of wine after a long stressful day being lost in the bumpy, dirt roads of the Dominican Republic mountains, with a battered, emotionally damaged dog who would give Dave Batista a run in the ring, was just the thing I needed to defuse the day that never seemed to end.
It truly is all good.
