but i also have a soft spot for BIG, GOOFY, CUDDLY male pit bulls that defy everything about the way they look and just want to love on you. all the time. they remind me of my Bunz.
Hooch fits into camp number two, i honestly don't know if i've met a more goofy (looking and acting) dog than him. i met him through Carolina Care Bullies, and have since become his home away from home when his owner travels.
having Hooch around is quite simply, joyful. this big lug does not leave your side, he is so loyal and so wants to please. plus he's REALLY easy to bust because anytime he does something 'bad' the look is so written all over his face. it's kind of hysterical actually. when he's not up to something (and he rarely is), Hooch is most content when he's laying around getting snuggled and cuddled by, well, whomever will snuggle and cuddle him. he makes you smile, makes you laugh, and makes you feel so loved and needed. ALL. THE. TIME. this is just
Hooch.
i've always been hesitant to having multiple pits in my house, mostly just worrying about how i'd manage my full time(+) job, my kids, my Rosie, and well all the other stuff that piles up that i have to "do". but Hooch has always integrated so nicely into our home, he follows my rules and his manners are impeccable. like i said, a joy.
it must be something about that goofy face. it's part pit bull, part something else, part gargoyle, but it's ALWAYS expressive. sometimes i can't tell if he's constantly thinking, or if he's just thinking about CHILLING which is his most favorite thing to do. or maybe he's just constantly confused. ha. i swear this dog would lay in a chair all day long, only getting up to get love, eat, and go out. whatever it is, there is something magical about Hooch. he is happy, charming, a wonderful pillow, he follows all the rules, and he lifts everyone around him UP. he is a happy-maker. and above all, a HUNK A HUNK O BURNING LOVE!
i'll be super sad when Hooch leaves us again, but my biggest hope for Hooch is that he finds a FUR-ever home soon. he's been in foster over a year, and he lives in a wonderful home with his other pittie companion Rose. But as happy as he is, his life will truly begin when he finds HIS family, HIS people.
Hooch was an owner surrender at a nearby shelter, that luckily loves bullies and looks out for their best interests. knowing what i do about the shelter world, he is lucky to have made it out alive.
now is Hooch's time to not only survive, but to THRIVE. in a home he can call home forever. if you'd like more information on Hooch please go to https://www.facebook.com/carebullies?ref=ts&sk=app_191978024178524
they are a great organization and he is a great dog!
