[Monkey Butler]

Blue_runner,

We call her a used or second hand dog. There used to be a local pet shop that sold mostly fish and gerbils but would also get dogs from the pound to put in the window to attract customers. They would sell them for $30 plus shots. She had been sold once to a family who named her China. They brought her back saying she was unmanageable. When we got her she was about seven months old and had absolutely no personality. But eventually we grew on her and she came around and is now a really incredible dog.

One day I was changing clothes and casually took my belt off and she almost ran straight through the back door. Once I figured out what was going on my blood boiled and I wished I could track down the first owners.
