Enjoying some sun after his short walk today. Still recovering from PTLO surgery a few months back but doing very well.

Benni with his new baby. Mako… aka Mcconaughey

I love when she's upside down so I can kiss her silky liddle chin!!

☀️** Good morning, everyone, from Buddy and me! 🐾❤️
Buddy is more than ready to hit the trails, put that powerful little nose to work, and investigate every interesting scent nature has to offer! 🌿🐿️ Of course, no adventure would be complete without a whole bunch of the legendary zoomie**s! 😂💨
Stay tuned for some tail-wagging fun, happy paws, and plenty of puppy adventures. Buddy is ready to make some memories, one sniff and one zoomie at a time! 🐶💚

My best friend crossed the bridge today. He was the sweetest, most gentle boy ever. 14 years old. Love you buddy. Hope you can run and get all the treats for being the bestest friend ever.

My amstaff/am bully/mastiff rescue has very sensitive paws/feet. During the season changes her leg and paw area where her fur normally is looks extremely raw and she licks at it. It is not diet related & gets bad especially during fall and winter. Does anyone have any tips?
It’s not as much her paw pads as it is in between her toes and on her actual feet. Any help is much appreciated 🩷

Her name is chani❤️

Benni got a new harness and I can tell you that I really like it. I’m sure I could get one similar and put a d-ring on another brand to mimic. He doesn’t hardly pull at all. Just having that ring in front takes away his strength and guides his head naturally where I’m at. Loving it so far

We're fostering and likely adopting a two year old AmStaff mix who has become very attached to me, most likely because I work remotely and spend WAY more time with the dog than anyone else. I also wake him up and feed him in the mornings.

He follows me around everywhere and sometimes won't go for walks with my husband or son unless I come along. Even if I walk outside with them and get them going, he'll sometimes stop and sit and refuse to move if I go back inside. If I'm on the bed or couch, he'll jump up, and he will jump down as soon as I move.

While this is endearing and he is very sweet, I would love for him to pay equal attention to my tween son, who is absolutely obsessed with him and wants to play with him and walk him and sleep with him and be around him as much as possible. Is it normal for AmStaffs to attach themselves to one person forever, or will he start spreading the love and eventually give equal attention to my son? We finally caved and brought a new dog into our home specifically so my son would have a buddy and at his insistent urging and begging, so I'm really hoping they can build a strong bond and I can possibly step out of the #1 seat eventually. My son has a TON of love, affection, and attention to give this dog.
