Happy 1 year Birthday to my little hippo, Bluebelle. Not sure her exact Birthday but it's sometime around now. She came out of Downey Animal Pound a high kill shelter in California. She was really sick with yucky kennel cough and and was to be put down that very day because of her sickness and she was the last of her litter to be adopted. They said no one liked her because she had a huge lump on her head... later our vet assumed she was most likely kicked or hit with force. :/ Heres Blue at the pound in the little area where you can meet dogs.. with cigarette butts and empty soda cans.. Two minutes after this photo, she rolled in another dogs diarrhea. Pleasant car ride home. And her today living in Tennessee! I made everyone a Bandanna. Hehe Hold on, I got more photos!

Cali dogs seeing snow for the first time! Pond was frozen.. which is a treat for the dogs. haha Stole my fries! Road trip seeing the snow. and kisses! With her daddy on a trail! She was classified as a pitbull mix at the pound.. but now that's she's a year old, her conformation looks nothing like a APBT. I've been calling her an American Bully, Standard from the reference of theabkcdogs.org/breeds/american-bully/standard/Except her ears are not set high at all. They are flappy. lol doesn't matter though, she's my short stocky little hippo. Happy Birthday Bluebelle!

I've had one or two people ask what kind of pitbull she is, and I say she's a Blue Hippo. They took that as a serious breed and ask where to find a breeder. HAHA. That's when I laugh and walk away. :]

The smile on her face when she's crashed out on the porch is awesome! And the last photo in the first post, she looks like she's saying humph no you do not get any kisses from me, you called me hippo! Great photos!

Thanks!
She's totally peeved at me when I want a kiss. I either embarrassed her because she's too cool to get kisses or was like hey, you called me a stinky hippo! Which I did because she's my only dog that tries to roll in wild animal poop. Horse poo is her favorite.

Happy birthday pretty girl! She looks so serious in some of those photos! She does! And I think that's why some folks are scared of her when I'm walking her. You know, the people that snatch up their kids till you are far away. Yesterday, I had a family unload groceries and saw my Husband and I walk our four pitties and jumped inside the car staring at us till we walked ahead. I turned back to see WTF was going on, and the husband came out with a bat. True Story. She looks serious.. till she runs onto our deck chasing fireflies(Made a nasty cut last summer(.. or falls into our pond playing in the mud after mommy just bathed her. She's so clumsy but super sweet. She wants to be a model. hehe

is it sad that all i want to do is give her cuddles? you would not catch me getting in a car to get away from her.. i would be that annoying lady that always wants to stop and talk/cuddle haha some people are so warped sometimes..

Thanks Tyson! She has the best kiss-a-bull lips ever!
People are, which is why I pretend to be on my phone or jamming to music when people ask such off questions. I want to get my dogs shirts that say something like, "Don't ask to breed me, I'm fixed!" That would help alot with people asking if she's a "purebred bluenose""we should breed our dogs"... I wasn't aware "bluenose" was it's own breed. haha.

hahaha i think people here in aus dont really think he is a pitbull (even though they have such a bad reputation here) because all i get every single time we go for a walk everyone just loves to cuddle him and comment on how good looking he is.. with their amazing temprament and goofy attitude its hard to believe people can be scared of such beautiful dogs.. and as for the shirt i would go for it!!! haha
