Explanations
The explanation of Larry, Junior, and Larry the Third(Please read post below before this one!): You all know of my dog Larry, I have/had a pickie of him on this site. Well, Buba had another litter about... I don' know, let's say... Somtehin' around one, two years ago (We've had SO many dogs, it's HARD to keep up with therr birthdays!!!), and one puppy was so obnaxious, so annoying, so loud that NOBODY would buy him. He was ALWAYS crying! For NO reason! So, eventually, we ended up keeping him. It was hard, because not even our family wanted him. He would just cry, and cry, and cry, and CRY! And it was sad, too. No one would ever talk to him. Nibbles' would wander by, and SOMEONE would say, "Hey, Nubbs!!!" (Nubbs her nickname ^^), and then Sharon would go bye, "Hey shar-bear!" and then, here comes Junior, of course being the crybaby he is. "......" NO ONE loved him! Everyone in my family (Except my grandma...) treats these dogs like family. My sister and I split the dogs between each other, and our dogs we offically call our sons or daughters. Even my mom went with it, and she was called Grandma. Even my Grandfather, who HATED dogs as he grew up, has a favorite: Buba and Sharon. She sleeps in his bed every night, since she was here first, and Sharon has sleept in his bed ever night that she was a mom, 'cause her puppies are in his bedroom. He won't admit it, but he loves them both.
And back to the Junior story: No one loved that dog, and as much as it saddens me, I admit that I remember Genie (my sis) and I ARGUING over which one got Junior. And no, it wasn't: "I WANT HIM!" "NO, HE'S MINE!!!" Nope. We each wanted the other one to take him. As I have stated so many times before, nobody loved him.
SO, being the 'nice' person I am, I took action. I started spending more time with him, and I gave him somebody to love. And eventually, I loved him back. (OH, and I'm sorry to all those people out therr that think animals don't have the same feelings people do. 'Cause I think that dogs, cats, gorrilas, ALL animals have the ability of love.) After a while, all his crying went away. He turned into a normal dog. And let me tell you, he was a GEORGEOUS pup. He may have been a crybaby, but he was adorable. And he wasn't a cry-baby any more. Because I took the courage to 'train' him, Junior became my dog. And I'm happy to say, Genie was very jelous. Once he stopped the tears, he became a very popular dog. I took him to a school outdoor thing in Fifth Grade, and my crush fell in love (Sadly, not with me (JK!)). Everyone got a snow-cone for this, and he actually gave his to Junior (Kids in my grade didn't USUALLY want to give up therr Snow-cone treats.), and his bandanna that we all got from the teacher. Junior went from 'The Dog That Nobody Loved', to 'The Dog That Everybody Loved', which makes it hard that sometime last year, Junior was given away... It still hurts me to think about it.
