Thanks...Otis was happy to meet you..some people take one look at him and head the other way...the Goby has settled in nicely and is eating as well as you said he would. Glad you liked the frags and thanks for the extras...I'll keep in touch with how things go and let me know how those frags do for you...Nina

For those that are wondering what Otis looks like here's a pic:

Very nice looking American Bulldog. Big boy! We have a 100lb and unfortunately still growing rottie and a 10 month old English Bulldog. ''Had to compliment the Bully'' reefs and bulldogs are my passion. Bulldogs #1 Reefs #2 and Wife #3 in that order Just dont tell her I said that LOL.

MODS: Thanks for allowing me to post this reply...

Otis was rescused from a no-kill shelter that was run by Catherine Hodges...who now is a spokesperson for all "bully breeds" and is currently keeping an eye on the Vicks problem and gathering support for tougher penalties for those fighting dogs. I will post the link and info in a new thread for those looking to protect our lovable breeds.
Please no flaming...we lovers of the breed agree that there are people out there who abuse the love, courage, loyality and heart of the breed. It HURTS us to see these dogs so horribly abused or even worst tied up in a yard neglected...bully breeds are big, strong and need/want/crave to be with their pack..If there were one rule I would enforce with any bully breed it is this: THEY SHOULD BE HOUSE RAISED FAMILY DOGS AND NEVER EVER EVER BE TIED TO A TREE OUT IN THE BACKYARD-They crave your leadership, to be part of the pack (your family) and will protect their "pack" at all costs.

My big AB allows me to brush his teeth, clean his ears, cut his nails and all manner of things just to please me...every Halloween the neighborhood kids come around, we put Otis in his "costume" and we all go trick or treating...Otis usually gets a few doggie treats from the neighbors who have come to expect his visit...And every parent knows Otis is keeping an eye out for "his" kids... Last year he put his huge paw on the tail of a little dragon who attempted to cross the street without stopping, much to the relief of his parents. Here's a pic of Otis in his costume....
