Percy is an 80 pound pit bull who knows NOTHING about personal space. His goal on any given day is to lay on you, beside you and to be as close to you as possible, regardless of how uncomfortable you may be! This is a true story of Percy coming to understand "me vs we" time and how we can learn to give each other space and grace at the same time.

The author and her husband were not looking for Percy but he was looking for them! Having recently lost their 10 year old pit bull rescue, Georgia, they were looking for another adult pittie in need of a loving home. Having become frustrated, unable to find one who was friendly with dogs, cats and children, all present in their home, they called off the search for the time being on January 3rd, 2021. The very next morning at 10 am, the author received a text message from her neighbor and friend Adrienne, of a 7 week old, blockheaded Red Nose Staffordshire Terrier who needed a home. As they say, the rest is history! Percy’s heart is as big as his head and he has the personality to match! He brings happiness to so many people who know him. Sharing his story and his shenanigans is the perfect way to spread the good news about what wonderful dogs pit bulls and pit bull type dogs can be!
