Selu's World

Selu is a female German Shepherd/Siberian husky mix. I got her from a lady up in the hills who had 40-50 or so similar dogs. There were at least three litters present scampering about the piles of empty Pepsi cans and trailer insulation that littered the property.(One full Ford F150 bed full of Pespi cans. Of course the F-150 had no engine or tires) Anyway it took us an hour and a half to capture one little scared 7 week old girl, later to be Selu. All her dogs were afraid of people, even this lady could not cox them out. They were half wild,like barn cats. Selu has always been wary of people. She is impossible to catch outside, thinks long and hard before crossing the threshold to the house. Yet at times,her times, she like to cuddle. She's a receiver not a giver. You might get one tongue swipe if youre lucky.Her eyes never set to long anywhere. The roam, probe,seek,question all about her. The guard rarely relaxes. You never catch her sleeping, she's awake by the time you get there,her ears never sleep. Yet nose to nose,eyeball to eyeball, she is majestic creature.One gold eye, one blue, darting incessently. Yet the face is calm, breathing controlled. There's a very faint and subtle sub tone, I could rip your face off in 2 seconds. You can feel it. There is a noblity in this dog, a wild creature, who gives you limited access. There's a loyality too,she knows I am a benefactor. She accepts me, maybe even loves me in dog emotions, but trust, no never, not completely. A wild animal has to be ever vigilant or it will be eaten, or starve to death. Selu will neither starve or be eaten.
