Not that any dog could ever replace Bo, but we did acquire a new red heeler cattle dog named Buster. He's trying very hard to find his place and be friends with the other dogs. Barney (in the basket with Buster) tolerates him and Jack, our little rat terrier, latches on to the side of his face when he plays too rough.
All of our dogs are rescue dogs. Buster came from a very rough environment that I was glad I didn't see. Jeff heard about him and picked him up and brought him to a happier, cleaner environment. It was pretty nasty from what I hear. Barney was abused by a young man who kicked and beat him to the p
oint the mother placed him up for sale (the dog, not the young man!) When we found Jack, he was living in a tiny apartment, inside a very tiny cage. He was wild and crazy and nervous. The little children that lived in the home terrorized him and he was one happy camper when Jeff said, "We'll take him!" and carried him home.

Life at our house is quiet and laid back and we don't like stress. We avoid it and try to stay away from it as much as possible. So when you drive up and see Buster stretched out on the swing, Barney drinking his morning coffee on the porch and Jack laying on his side in front of the fireplace, you know that all is well at our house!
