We adopted Brody from the Humane Society of West Olive in Michigan around nine years ago. We did a meet and greet with him in one of the Humane Society’s private offices after finding him online. They let him into the room and immediately he started running around, peeing on everything and trying to get away. It wasn’t until I had my wife leave the room, to go get another dog we were interested in, that Brody began to sell himself as though this was his last chance to get adopted. He sat for me. He laid down on command. I stuck my head out of the office and told my wife to come back. We fell in love in an instant.
Brody became best friends with our older dog Byron, and later with our newer dog Whiskey. The three have been inseparable since. Each dog had its own personality but Brody’s was mysterious. He liked playing with everyone but loved his alone time to sit outside in the sun and just be by himself.
