Gentle Giant

We have a gentle giant in our neighborhood he protects us all and he especially protects our animals. He lies in the grass all summer watching and waiting to see if any cars are coming, then he warns the dogs and then they run home. He lies still never saying a word and then the dogs come over and he stays still as a mouse and they jump on him and then there cautious and go up to him and give him doggie kisses. He laughs and talks to them (there his buddies) he was abandoned by the side of the road and people took him in, the house here is a caretaker house and he calls his white caregiver Dad. "Watch me dad" he will say and throw the ball at them and laugh and laugh. He loves the sun and they have to go out and get him and tell him its time to eat, and he runs in and eats and then runs back outside again. They keep a watchful eye on him constantly bringing him back in the house to get him out of the sun. He is severely retarded, his legs are twisted, so he doesn't walk or run well. He barely can talk well, but he manages to yell at the neighbors children and he'll say something to them then he laughs and laughs. He is so joyful, and happy and loves everybody. He is probably around 30 years old, and we all love him dearly, he protects us and we protect him. His Dad brought him around the neighborhood one year and let him trick or treat us. He came up with Dad on the porch with a very distrustful look at me. Not saying a word, and I'm like "oh so glad to meet with you, oh my you look like a clown in the circus he just shyly smiled at me. Then he turned real fast and ran to the next door neighbors! and his dad could barely keep up with him! He was getting candy for his family! and boy was he excited!

He's waiting for the doggie to come back from around the bushes

He's peeking "where is he, whens he going to come back?

Just waiting and watching, I wish I could have gotten a picture of when the doggie came back kissing him. So sweet and cute.
