Ruth and Alabama - recently arranged sister-wives
Ruth is my 2.5 y/o female IS from a Missouri breeder, but rehomed from a family in my city. After my ex and I broke up (leaving with her cocker mix) I felt like Ruth needed a new companion. Enter Alabama, a 3-5 y/o female Dogue de Bordeaux/Neopolitan Mastiff rescued from an LA shelter by a terrific local org. Best decision I made for my IS. My logic was if I am already maintaining the high motor of an IS, a second dog would be easy work. Though I underestimated a Mastiffs willingness to be a big old potato, Alabama’s brand of wrestling does a great job tiring out Ruth, though Bama will surely never catch her in a race.
