We had no plans of getting another dog after our Cincy passed away. We had to put Cincy down due to cancer. She was 12 and half years old. The best guard dog, very well behaved; but first she was a protector. Many people were afraid of her; which I liked: I hate to say. She was a Rottweiler/German Shepard Mix.
So one night; maybe two weeks after Cincy's passing, my son and I were messing around looking at puppies - more out of feeling a sense of loss than really looking. Somehow we ended up on Craigslist. I have no idea how we got there, as the last place I would look for a dog would be on Craigslist!
We ran across a picture of an adorable 7 week old puppy. They stated it was a boxer/Pyrenees. I emailed the contact and to my surprise she emailed back within 15 minutes. She has just posted the picture 45 minutes prior! We talked a bit over email and then scheduled a time to see the pup the next day.
That is the story of how we got Buddy. We saw him and fell in love. He was so cute and fluffy! We gave them $40 cash and away we went with a new puppy...thinking it is a Boxer/Pyrenees. He is sweet as can be. I sleep on the floor on the opposite side of the baby gate as he is in the bathroom.
He starts to grow and we quickly realize he is not a boxer at all, but a golden retriever/pyrenees - confirmed by our wonderful vet at Grady Vet Hospital in Cincinnati.
We guess his birthday to be April 1. A perfect date for him as he fooled us!
