Dolly (now Dez)

In November of 2010 we decided that we were going to get another dog for our boxer Zee. He needed a friend badly! We looked online and found one that we wanted but that didnt work out. The lady had brought over a dog that she felt we would love. The second we opened the door we knew that this was the one! She looked just like our dog but the patch was on the other eye. She was so friendly, and just wanted to be loved on and that was perfect because we have a lot of love to give. She came to us with the name of Dolly but we changed it to Dez.

At first, she wasn't too keen on Zee. She only wanted to be around him when she wanted to be around him which was not very often. But with a little time, training, and patience she grew very attached to him. (she's the one on top in the picture) My husband works out of town a lot and she is very protective of the home which makes me feel a lot better. She is WONDERFUL with our daughter who is 14 months. My daughter can poke and prod her and pull her ears and Dez loves it! She cuddles with her, plays with her, and protects her. When we first got Dez she only weighed about 48 pounds. She was a stray and you can tell she definetly was that! But now she weighs a whopping 67 pounds! We just wanted to say Thank you LSBR for bringing her to our home. She has been an great addition and we cant imagine our lives without her!!!

Thank you, The Bloom Family
