AKA the short story of how Tyson picked us….

June 2005. This is the day Tyson, at 5 months of age, chose us as his forever home. I had been looking for a red boy, and his breeder was holding onto him for a special home. So, we loaded a crate in the van and drove to NC to visit the breeder and her red boy. After visiting with Tyson’s parents, I asked to see Tyson. We walked outside. The breeder let him out, and Tyson, at 5 months, owned the ground he trotted on. With no leash on, he trotted out of his kennel and directly to us, moving with his head up, beautifully single tracking right to us. I looked at Jim and said “I have to have this dog”. If only I had a video I could share of this moment as this dog trotted like this his whole 10 year long life. The only video I have is in my memory, and I remember it like it was yesterday. We went to the van, opened the crate and Tyson jumped in and he never looked back. He went on to officially become BISS Am Ch/MBIS U GrCh/IABC Ch Talladega’s American Thunder RN OA OAJ NJP NF CL-3 CGC VCX ROM. I can’t believe he’s gone…. if I could turn back time….
