I HEAR A STORY ABOUT ONE OF OUR KIND

I heard this true story of a young ( under one year old ) white Bull Terrier name Snap, somewhere, some time in the US.

Snap was quite a character, self confident, take no shit from nobody type ( hmmm..that is our kind alright ) and was the co-owner with his boss of the farm he lived in.

One day he confronted a wild animal that intruded the farm, they said it was a wild dog. A vicious fellow that was much larger than young Snap. Snap did his job and killed the animal after a vicious fight. Snap was badly injured too.His boss kept him indoors for rest and recovery.

Before he can recover fully, there was another intruder. This time a large wolf.
On that fateful day, the large wolf was cornered by a whole pack of dogs of the farming community; all types, including big fellows like Great Danes . But none dare to make the first move, the wolf is one big manacing wild customer.

Alot of barkings , fake charges, but just a 'show down' with nothing really happening.

Suddenly , a white shadow charged past the circle of dogs. It was Snap, for he heard the disturbances. He gave a disappointed glance at these cowardly folks ( almost saying WHAT YOU GUYS ARE WAITING FOR ! )as he head straight for the wolf. He went for the throat, but his old injuries slowed him. But he still caught the wolf's jaws and he hang on there and never let go. After a brief moment that lasted an age for the young Snap, the pack of dogs finally got the guts to charge and killed the wolf.

Young Snap die of his old and new injuries. The passing of a true blue Bull Terrier.
All Bullies round the world salute you.

Note: We Bullies do not have the miss guided hatred of wolves , like human beings do. Wolves have to hunt to survive. Sometimes they have no choice but take on an occasional cow or sheep owned by humans. What do you expect them to do to live ? Be a farmer and plant potatoes?. But then they crossed paths with humans and they were labered BIG BAD WOLVES. Accused of every crime known to humans ,and probably only commited by humans,justifications were made for wolves to be slaughtered to almost extinction in the last 200 years. It was until recently that they are spared and allowed to live in some areas like Yellow Stone Park of the US and in Eastern parts of Germany. Truely , another sad tale for our related kind, some say they are actually our ancestors...

There was not a single record documented of a healthy wolf having attacked a human.

BIG BOSS SAYS AGAIN...

These should have been written some time back, but credit due must be given...

We were apprehensive when we adopted Dango. There were so much tales about dogs chewing up their owners'belongings. And Bull Terriers have such powereful jaws. So the first day she came, we had all our shoes and other things on the floor kept.

NO, Dango never destroy any of her owners' properties. No chewing of shoes, furnitures, or any other things well within her reach. In fact she is very careful not to damage anything, even during a wild indoor ball game . Any one can notice she made quite some efforts to avoided crashing into any thing. And that is respect !

Dango has great discretion. She is alert and defensive when she encounter big burly men. But she treats children ( and most females ) very differently. Many times she charged to the front gate in response to some noise disturbances, but come to a skidding brake when she discovered it is children. The whole body language changed to a friendly one. She can even distingushed the engine sound of our neighbours' cars ( so she BO CHAP )from that of strangers'( agressive barking )


Dango never take any food not meant for her. Tried and tested. All our food on the dinnig table will not be touched even when we are not around. The girl has her own strict code of conduct.

When we give her chewing treats like dried salmon skin stick, or rib bones ,or dried lamb ears( after some jumping exercise to get to them ), she will run to the door mat to chew, so as not to litter the place.

Dango never waste any food. She pick up every bit of food spilled over. She remembers the hungry years.

BUT SIGH ! Big Boss is a biker, and she has some ancient grudges with motorcycles. When ever Big Boss mount his bike, Dango will charge to attack the tires. That she never change. A mystery .

Any way , what more can one ask of a Bull Terrier ? Big Boss and Lady Boss sure are the most happy Bull Terrier owners.

Baking Boo~hoo~

My Lady Boss got an oven at a sale last month at a very good price, so today, she got down to do some baking.

It's the first time that she's baking something, so she decided on brownies (cos Auntie SG told her its the easiest to bake). After creating a mess in the kitchen for a long......... long time, this was the result.



It looks alright, and it smells alright but it doesn't taste alright. And can you believe it? Lady boss distributed the brownies to some of her friends staying nearby, including Auntie Ping our housekeeper.

Luckily I'm a dog and can't eat anything with chocolate. Otherwise I will end up as one of the guinea pigs too. Pity those humans!
