I took this picture on Brut's Gotcha Day (Nov. 22) and every time I see this picture and look at it I just want to crawl behind him, lay down and hold him ever so gently. It would have to be done slowly and quietly for him to stay laying with me. Because this giant beast who can be so fierce and tough is really a scared little puppy who just wants to be comforted. But it's tough for this big boy to shed that grandiose exterior and let himself be held. But when it is done in just the right moment and in just the right space he will let go and let me touch his soul.

That is so sweet. Brut is really a big softie. Have a marvellous Monday.
Best wishes Molly
Brut reminds me of my Bruce, the way you describe his personality. That day will come. It has taken nearly three years for us with Bruce, and I have literally shed blood, sweat, and tears over him. But it is so worth it.
What a sweet post. I'm glad that he will let himself be held by you if the time is right.
That is so sweet. The dogs who are hard to get close to can be the most rewarding too.
