Oh you guys, even though I was extremely sad yesterday for all the events, I was also happy to see my roamer had stuck around. He must have been full after eating in the morning because he slept all day. Around 2:00 pm. I left to go buy him food and Romeo's too and to go get my sweet terror from doggy day care, it was around 4:30 pm when I made it back and notice he was gone. Around 6:00pm he was back, I got him some NB food roll in beef and turkey flavor and also some NV chicken kibble. We went through the routine, I went to feed him, he ran away and stopped to look at me, I put down his food a big 6 inch piece of the NB beef and he came running towards it, ate, had some water fell asleep again between some plants, but he left again. Around 11:00 pm I took Romeo out and guess what? My roamer was back, yeah. !!!! I put a big comforter on the patio folded in fourths and left the patio door open, turned off the light, closed the blinds and went to bed; 1/2 hour later I went to see if he had come in and he did!! he was asleep on the comforter. I sat on the floor and watched him a long time through the blinds and could not help it and cried. I think is my old age, my hormones are out of control. I was born in 1967 so I am getting close to the big 40, dangerous age for a woman. [

Anyway, this morning I woke early, because I know the does too. I usually see him on the streets around 6:00 am. He had made his way out again and was sleeping between the plants on the cool ground. He saw me, got up, came over to me, sniff my hand and licked it. And you know it, the waterworks almost started again. When I tried to touch him, he backed away, so I put his food down the NB, but he would not touch it, I put a couple of pieces on my hand and he took it, but would not eat more. I opened the bag of NV, his head went up, nostrils flared and he dove in. [
] He had some water and went to sleep.
Now my only problem is Romeo, I don't know why but every time he sees this dog, even when we would find him a couple of miles from the complex, Romeo transforms into monster dog, and is scary, because he means business, his growling is deep from within his stomach ( is his not his throaty growl) and his body is all tense, bares his teeth, well you get the picture. I don't know what to do'.
Okay, long post again. Sorry, here are the pictures I was able to take this morning. I say Sharpei mix, but what do you all think? I think he is beautiful, maybe because I love him. You really cannot tell from the pictures, but whe he yawns he has a lot of black spots on his tongue. He is so cute, my roamer, I want to name him Roscoe, any opinions?
