I had lots of fun yesterday playing in the kennel with Shoogie and Max. Then we played in the yard off leash. My Mom doesn't even get nervous about that anymore. I listen really well, better than they do! We played until I was tuckered out and crashed. I hope we can do it again today!!
My mom wouldn't let me go outside and hang out with Max and Shoogie because it was too cold. Soooo she went out and bought me a jacket. She also got me some socks to keep my feet from scratching the hard word floors when I get excited and run in circles.
Well it's finally arrived. Turkey day!!! I'm at my Grandma's for a few days with my Mom and Dad. The Great-Grandparents are coming too. They love me. Well except for that time they yelled because I was waking up Great-Grandma by jumping on her chest and desperately trying to scratch that stupid blanket off of her face. They laughed about it later though. They should be here soon, I'm so excited.
I, of course, reminded her that was 9 months ago, I was immature then and I just wanted to see out of the window. If they would have just left the blinds up like they do now I wouldn't have had to chew through them to see.
Chad Billingsley's Brindle Boxer was among the things stolen during a recent rash of robberies.
SMYRNA, Ga. -- The dog bowls for food and water still sit on the floor of Chad Billingsley's apartment. There are training pads, toys and the empty travel crate with it's door wide open. The newest family member who used all of those items is gone. Someone stole Billingsley's 8-week-old brindle Boxer puppy.
"I can't understand why someone could take a part of someone's family like that. I'd only had him a week, but already I'm so attached to him", Billingsley said.
It happened Thursday around noon at the Magnolia Vinings apartments. Billingsley's girlfriend came home for lunch to let the puppy out and found the front door kicked in and the travel crate open and empty.
According to Cobb County police Det. Wade Wagnon, there were several burglaries in the apartment complex around the same time.
"Most of the time when there's a dog in the apartment that's something that will dissuade a burglar from going inside in the first place, but in this particular case it appears to be that was one of the things they were interested in taking", he said.
The investigator has taken a personal interest in the case, in part because he himself has a boxer that he raised from infancy.
"All we want is to have the person who took the dog turn it into a veterinarian's office", said Det. Wagnon.
The reason they hope someone gets it to a vet is that the puppy just had its ears surgically clipped and is supposed to be on antibiotics and pain medication. The dog still had blue bandages around its head when he was stolen.
"There's a chance they saw the puppy and thought it was a pit bull", said Det. Wagnon.
Instead, they took a family pet that Chad Billingsley was hoping to bring to the new home he's building to be his constant companion.
"I worry about him, wherever he is. It's upsetting, it really is", said Billingsley.
