CRUZ
I love my dog Cruz. He is so intelligent and friendly. He is a German Shepherd, a Deutsche Schaferhunde. The first of his breed originated in Kalsruhe, which is a German city.
Cruz is about 60cm in height, which is reasonably short for a male. He is very strong, and loves to exercise. Mum and Dad exercise Cruz daily.
He weighs about 40kgs, but he was about 34kgs when we got him. We got Cruz from the pound when he was about 18 months old. We brush him every day by rubbing him, because that gets out most of his loose fur.
Cruz is six years old, and was the runt of the litter. He has one big brother and sister.
He is an awesome family dog, and great with my little brother and me. Cruz is a big sook, and likes to sit in front of the fire when it’s cold (if he can make it there before Mum, that is!!!!)
I feed him once a day, after I have had my dinner. He has a bowl full of Eukanuba biscuits, which he usually saves most of for the next day.
The police checked Cruz while he was still at the pound, but they wouldn’t take him because he was not aggressive. But that is a good thing for us because he is very gentle with kids.
His brother’s name is Chaos, the complete opposite of Cruz in many ways. Chaos passed his tests to become a police dog, unlike Cruz.
I’m glad we’ve got Cruz. He is the best!!
