Brutus, the Dog of the Day
Name: Brutus
Age: Deceased, Twelve years old
Gender: Male Breed: Keeshond
Home: Kenner, Louisiana, USA
 
   Brutus was always the sweetest and most gentle pet. He was always on his best behavior, but demanded lots of attention. At times he could be very sneaky. Once while his "Daddy" was carving a turkey, he snuck up behind him and grabbed a big piece of turkey and ate it. It happened so fast, before we knew it, he was sitting there acting so innocent. That was the only time I ever saw him move like lightning, the rest of the time he was pretty laid back without a care in the world. He got along with all the dogs in our family (a total of seven right now) and was not the least bit phased by the two cats.

    We lost him to cancer a few days ago. He was twelve years old. He was sick for a long time and never complained about it once. All he wanted to do was fill our lives with joy... and that's exactly what he did.
