we found him on monday night. him and his glorious nutsack. he was wandering the streets and we were wandering daisy. he looked mean, but he was nice. daisy liked him immediately (as is usually the case). he followed us home and we had the idea that we would keep him safe for the night until we could bring him to the animal shelter the next morning. had he not been so ugly, we might have thought about keeping him. we’re pretty sure he’s an american bulldog, possibly purebred.
it was decided that his temporary name would be “brutus” since he looked like a gladiator. we toyed with calling him “brutus maximus,” but that was too much. he needed food, so we fed him. he didn’t want to stay outside, so against better judgment, we brought him in. he drooled on everything and spent a lot of time face-humping daisy. for some reason, our little daisy doesn’t like being humped from the back, only the front. she’s a lady.
i watched “revenge of the sith” and fell asleep on the couch keeping the dogs company. brutus woke up a couple times and barked at the air conditioning. 7 am finally rolled around and we took him to the animal shelter. they located a chip in his neck and so there is a good chance he will be returned to his owners (assuming they were looking for him).
