Betty’s Boyfriend

Betty and Dude

Look, I think Betty is beautiful, but it’s possible that she hasn’t had a boyfriend in a long time—enter Dude, an 11-year-old English Staffordshire Bullterrier.

Dude

Before they met, I knew they were made for each other.

It is possible however that Betty took the relationship a little too seriously. Dude is laid back mellow sort of…well…Dude and he knew that no matter how perfect they were for each other, that their relationship could only last the six days that Betty stayed here at Doggie Heaven.

Betty defending Dude

But Betty was ready to defend their love tooth and nail. Every time another dog would approach Dude a little too closely, she would charge and let them know that Dude Was Hers.

Look what happened when Moondoggie got a little too close to Betty’s Dude.

Back off bitch!

Why Do Dogs Love California?

Dogs love California because they can go to the beach in late November and it can be sunny and 70 degrees. Humans like it too.

Where's Betty?

I had a new dog during Thanksgiving vacation, my friend’s bulldog Betty.

She had slightly misrepresented Betty’s behavior. She’d said that all Betty does is sleep and eat—and that Betty couldn’t get around that well and didn’t really want to.

So she dropped Betty off.

Betty slowly climbed out of the car. She did it by herself but as I watched, I thought she might need a little help.

My friend pulled away and suddenly Betty found herself surrounded by seven fun-loving doggie friends.

I tell you she was like a co-ed on spring break in Florida. It was doggies gone wild.

Betty played and played and ran and caroused for the three days she was here.

One time she went missing.

I found her in my car. I was surprised she could even jump into my car. I wondered what she was doing there at first, and then I realized.

She was changing into her Superdog outfit.
