I've started volunteering at Stray Rescue of St Louis, if any of you fine folks are in the mood for a nice stroll round and lots of love off some big friendly dogs, then you should come along. Seriously, you can hang out with dogs as lovely as Beeblebrocks - https://www.strayrescue.org/beeblebrocks - so if you can spare a bit of an evening a week, I highly recommend it.
I expected to open that page to see a dog with two heads, how disappointing.

They spelled his name wrong too, but then the company they use for their microchipping apparently won't let them re-use names, so it's entirely possible they've already had a "Beeblebrox" through their doors.

I would think that they would just put the last name of the owner on if they can't re use names since I'm sure with dogs a lot of the same names get used often.

Duncan is starting to be able to walk again, post-surgery. I'm cautiously optimistic.

The Big Galoot is 14 now and not moving around like he used to. He can have trouble getting his hind legs to work much.

But he can still pull his hump maneuver on another dog in a heartbeat. He uses his big paws to jab the dog off balance and then wham, he's on the back.

On two separate occasions on walks we came across someone walking a lab puppy. The lab puppies are all energy and pull their owner over to see the Galoot. Within seconds, Galoot has it subdued.
