Our other baby

This is Remy, my (and Jason's) other baby. He's a 3 1/2 year old pit bull/lab mix that I adopted from Second Chance for Pets in March of 2006. He's the most wonderful dog I've ever known. When he came to me as a foster, he was about 10 lbs. underweight, his paws were covered in urine burn sores from sitting in a crate full of his own urine all day every day, and he was very shy. It didn't take him long to come out of his shell and show his true colors. Remy wants nothing more than a bowl of food, a squeaky toy, and to be showered with love and affection all day long. He's changed many peoples' minds about pit bulls and pit bull mixes. When they meet him, they're usually amazed at how well behaved and sweet he is. He's a great ambassador for the pit bull breed.

He's going to be a great big brother. I can see him being very attentive to the baby. He may be a little jealous at first, but he'll get over that quickly.
