Maggie Sue

Maggie Sue is my beautiful, energetic American Bulldog/Boxer mix. She looks so fierce that her name is a little play on words. We named her Maggie after the children’s cartoon “Maggie & the Ferocious Beast” but she’s usually anything BUT ferocious.

She loves peanut butter, snuggling, playing tug-of-war, doing tricks, her family and especially “her” babies. She loves the Boys as if they were her own puppies. She cares for them and is so very careful with them. It’s amazing. I’ve seen Emmett John pull her tail, bite her ear, use her as a step stool and ride her like a horse; Maggie never bats an eyelash. When they cry, she’s right there checking them out. If there is noise outside, she checks it out. No one is harming “her” babies on her watch! She weighs 60lb but seems to believe she’s a lap dog. When she decides it’s time to snuggle, it’s time to snuggle, by force (very gentle force but force nonetheless), if neccessary.

As my Fibromyalgia has gotten worse, she’s become my comfort. Every night she climbs up on the couch next to me and lays half on my lap, very gently. It’s almost as if she’s trying to absorb my pain and stress; God bless her. She’s never turned down a ride in the car – even to go to the vet. At night she isn’t content unless she is sleeping at the foot of our bed…under the covers and most of the time entangled in our legs.
