A Gift We Named Butchy Boy!!

Back in August 1998, my sister Norma, her husband, and some friends went to Pennsylvania. While on one of their journeys, they stopped at a shopping center. They parked their car and when they got out they heard loud but muffled yelping. They looked around and saw a crowd of people around a car. Being the animal lover Norma is, she had to go over and see what was going on. Inside of a car with all the windows closed in August, she saw a 7 week old Jack Russell Terrier tied to the stick shift. Everyone was so upset but doing nothing! My sister said " we need to get him out of there" With that they all backed up so who came to the rescue? Her of course. She persuaded her husband to, ummm....remove him from the car and then brought him into the store for some water from the fountain and made some announcements but nothing. So guess what? Yup, we got him. Norma already had 2 sharpei's at home and they would have eaten him for lunch!! Well, we couldn't be happier he really is the best. In the beginning he was very crazy, running around at a very high speed biting your feet whenever you walked across the room. We blamed it at first at him most likely having brain damage from being baked in the car, but a 2 week sleep away obedience school helped a lot!! Franky was only about 5 or 6 at the time and was so scared of him that his feet didn't touch the floor for a good month! He walked from chair to chair to couch to table and then had to be carried the rest of the way!! It's funny now....
Everyone who meets him now loves him he's so calm and loving. Even when he first meets you he rolls over to get his tummy scratched or just wants to be in your lap. He really thinks he's part of the family, he sits on a chair at the table, he doesn't beg just sits and waits. He is always in someones lap while we're watching TV and he never sleeps on the floor, he likes to be under the covers down by your feet! He hates to be alone, he will follow you all around, he's happy to just be wherever his family is. Thanks Norma for our Gift...

Even people like Josh Fryman who SAY they don't like dogs seems very comfortable with Butchy. And Butchy boy with him too!!!
