The Pit is the little black one.
The bossy dog is a Beagle/Lab/Shepherd mutt. It pushes EVERY other dog around. We keep her ‘cuz she’s a great hunter. Not gunny at all.
On the 4th of July, it looked up a couple of times, but was not phased in the least by fireworks. When she hears a bang, she just looks for falling ducks.
Then the “mutt” was just being a good “mommy” and LETTING the puppy act big.
Or, I need to go to bed now....?
(And yes, I did know the black-fierce-man-eating-puppy was the Pit). :)
My oldest GSD, btw...while she’s NOT the mom to any of the other dogs...is the oldest. She waits till her brood is fed before SHE eats. She pretty much lets them have their way, until SHE has had it. And then Watch Out!
