The Dander Makers - Part 1: The Canines

This blog has been unfairly focusing on the "cloth diapers" aspect and hasn't been giving fair airtime to the "kong" department, so it's time to introduce the other residents of our household.  Dogs first.

Reef is our princessy old lady of a Pit Bull.  She's 11 years old and has lived in 4 different states with me.  She's amazingly tolerant of pretty much everything and is one of the most adaptable dogs I've ever known.  She has a special relationship with her new heated dog bed, but shares nicely when she finds one of the cats curled up in it.  Shockingly, she even has patience for her bumbling "brother"..... Lucian.  



Loosh, Mush, Wooter - whatever you call him - he's a giant.  He's our 2 year old Dogue de Bordeaux (think Hooch ala Turner and Hooch).  He's the gigantic (160 lbs), sweet, drool machine who truly believes he weighs 5 lbs in his head.  He loves holding hands with humans, playing gently with stuffed toys and being groomed by the cats - seriously.


While I spend my days working with other people's dogs, these 2 are my family.  They're really fantastic beasties and are such characters.  We're not sure if they sense that they're going to be gaining a small human yet!
