Friday Chat w/ Vlad
Hey, it’s Vlad. I’m here today with our New Guinea Singing Dogs Luxx, Nicky and Stumpy. Welcome to my chat guys. Hi Vlad, we are happy to be here but I want you to know not to get snarky with us or we will have to go wild dingo on you. What’s “wild dingo” Luxx? Well Vlad it’s what happens when we get upset. You see Vlad, NGSDs are sometimes called New Guinea Dingoes or Forest Dingoes. We are genetically very similar to Australian Dingoes. So much so that some researchers call us one in the same. So bottom line don’t get us angry…you wouldn’t like us when we’re angry. Noted Luxx. How did you end up at JABCECC. Well Vlad, I was born at a zoo in Canada. It was very cold there and my living conditions weren’t great. Some good samaritans working at the zoo took me home and raised me. Then one day I smelled something I could not resist. I tracked the delightful smell to a 7 11 store. Once I broke inside I found it was coming from a rack of hot dogs which I quickly ate. People determined I was the “perp” and I was sent back to lockup at the zoo. Luckily soon after that I was rescued out of the zoo and made my way to JABCECC. Great story Luxx, I don’t think I could have resisted those hot dogs either.
So Nicky what’s your deal. Hi Vlad, Stumpy and I are Luxx’s sons. I was first born which is why I’m the smartest and best looking. Stumpy was born with that stubby tail. Unfortunately only a very few NGSDs were ever brought out of the wild which means all the NGSDs outside of New Guinea are very inbred. Exotic breeders sometimes get their hands on us and convince people we are great companion animals for everyone, but the truth is we can be very difficult so those animals often need to be rescued. I know what you mean Nicky, the same thing happens to foxes. I can’t help but notice the couches we are on have many holes, was that your handiwork? Well Vlad, I have destroyed so many things, it’s hard to keep track but It would be safe to say a few of these holes were my creations. Ok guys I’ve got important things to get done so thank you for your time.
Vlad out.
