Hi I am new!

Hello All,

I have always had rescue dogs, and after losing one of my dogs I decided it was time to add another to our home.
Me and Hettie the 10 year old Jack Russell Terrorist (not a typing error!) have been together for years, she is not an easy dog to find a live in partner for! She is bossy, opinionated and would test the patience of a saint!
Enter George - a 3 year old Staffie - I haver never owned or considered one before - I had the same misgivings as a lot of people - all muscle and teeth - it will eat Hettie!
Within seconds of meeting him I was smitten! A dog with perfect manners, the most soulful eyes, and amazing patience with the hairy terrorist!
He had been taken to the vet by his previous owner to be put down as he was no longer wanted!
I have met with a lot of resistance from family and friends, but George has won them all over. He is amazing with other dogs, has the most relaxed manner about him. He can walk into a pack of dogs he has never met before and be accepted like a long lost friend!
The only time he has ever reacted is when Hettie the Terrorist gets into a situation with a dog and calls for her bodyguard. He puts himself between her and the other dog, stands his ground and gives his 'I am Armed' look - all teeth. It has never gone further than that.
I really don't think I have ever laughed at a dogs antics as much as at him. He plays the clown with gusto!
George has developed Epilepsy, it was a bit of a shock, but we are managing. I would love to hear from others with the same problem.
And the hairy Terrorist??? currently snuggled up against the boy! she is still in charge of course (until the cat enters the room!).

Hi and welcome from me and Tilly George sounds like the perfect doggie Sure there will be 1 or 2 people on here that know about the condition in dogs, our Vet once though Tilly had it because she had worked herself up into so much of a state travelling up in the car shaking and panting , he gave her 2 shots of Diazepam and she was still standing rock solid when he said that would have put a lab flat on its back.
