this new type of dog is a sad case indeed. This sad puppy cringes, looks around hopelessly, nods, shakes his head and paws nervously as you chat...You see the story of this dog is a sad one. His mother had him and his brothers and sisters as an unwanted litter...his owners tried to take care of them for about three months before they were too much of a hassle for them...the owners put an add out in the paper, but no one wanted dogs that were so old, everyone wants cute pet-store bred puppies...so they boxed up all the dogs and took them to the nearest animal 'shelter' and abandoned them there...This puppy had to watch his brothers and sisters beeing put down, while all of them were living in barley humanie conditions. This dog is too scared to walk around the room and stands right next to your avatar very nervously. But this puppy isnt hopless, he responds to your commands! when you type yes he nods, type no and he shakes his head, type beg and he will beg for you, type sit and he sits, finally type in gooddog to let him know what a good dog he is and he wags his tail and feels happy for a brief momment..
