| Manny fka CP Manassas |
I
adopted Manny three years ago, in August, 2010, and he's the love of my life! I didn't want to confuse him further, so I
kept the nickname “Manny” for Col Potter's name which was “Manassas”.
Manny is the only dog I've had who LOVES his toys! He shows this love by taking all toys out of
his toy box and strategically placing them all over the house so one is always
within reach. Messy house; happy dog.
We even sleep with a menagerie of favorites that he enjoys stalking,
torturing, and killing as a restful sleep appetizer.

| Nice catch! |
Well, I was out shopping and saw some Gund toys. One, a little worm critter, looked about Manny
size and it made a cute giggling noise. It
was the same price as doggie toys so home it came. As soon as he heard the giggle noise, Manny
was smitten... and determined to kill it! Best toy EVER!
 |
| I wonder if it will move on
its own… |
 |
| What goes up… |
 |
| …must be caught! |
 |
| So, there! |
 |
| …and There! |
He captured it, tossed it in the air like a Hacky Sack, played keep-away and
tug of war! If I captured it, he
wouldn't take his eyes off it until he seized it once more. He kept his
eyes on the prize! When the time was
right, he pounced. Then with a shark-like
attack, he went for the kill! Poor
Wormy! First he lost an eye. Then I found wormy entrails around the house. His giggle was but a memory... "I am Manny! No critter escapes these
mighty jaws!" What a guy!

| Mom? Can

Many Thanks to Foster Mom, Susan M. and Col. Potter for rescuing Manny! He's a little hunk o' luv!
