Celebrate this German Shepherd Dog with me

Here is Bofi. You will help me wish him  happy birthday. Permit me a little brief on this German Shepherd that has kept and is still keeping Destiny with us.

Born on 1st November 2015, He is an only son. His mother Gigi died on 18 March 2016.  (A Day I will never forget). Bofi is destined to live, conquer and accomplish a purpose which he did and is still doing.

Conception

After all the efforts get the mother to mate which indeed happened, we were sure she was pregnant. Circumstances  compelled us to invite the Vet  doctor for a pregnancy test which came out negative. So we withdrew all the pampering. 

His Birth

On that faithful Sunday, we came back from church and grandma announced to us that, it appears this dog gave birth while we were away. Behold!  Lying in the cage was a black oblong thing breathing on the floor and Gigi was ready to destroy anybody that dares to touch it. We were full of excitement and waiting for other puppies to no avail. That was how Bofi
came into the family.

His father was a stubborn mixed old breed called Bofi.  Being an only son, we named him after his father, who is also late now.

His Challenges

Boffii as we fondly call him fell down from a two story building at 4 weeks old, with blood gushing out from his head, nose and eyes. We invited the Vet. Doctor, He never believed, this dog would live with such injuries, but guess what! He survived it.

About two months later, we moved to our estate at Ikorodu. On getting there, he was so sick, stooling blood and all kinds of infections with no qualified Vet Doctor known to us as we were new there. We tried amoxil and some blood tonics, we could buy.  With little hope for him. We felt he was going to die. But guess What!  He survived it.

Wrong medication was administered to him by a quack Vet doctor on one occasion at our new location when he  was very ill as a puppy about five months old.  Guess what? Bofi refused to die.

His mother caught an infection during her 2nd pregnancy and we lost her on March 18, 2016 (A Day I will never forget). Two weeks later, this orphan (Bofi) caught the same infection, we gave up hope, more so he was a puppy, but guess what?!  He cheated death again.  He was on a mission.  He has date with destiny.

Bofi For Sale

At one point, I decided to sell it off due to too many ailments and infections, besides, and caring for him  was not easy considering the recession too.  Prospective buyers called and called, negotiated, somehow, he could not be sold. He was on a mission.

Bofi At Last

Bofi grew in size and wisdom.  Began to bark  and became very aggressive like the mother and stubborn like the father, but loyal, playful and loving like most German shepherds.  He became a member of the family and understands my dialect.

The Testimony

Until that faithful night at about 3.00am.  But for his alertness and the Mercy of God, myself and  the entire family would have perished in the hands of evil men, in the hands of doomed men.  Men who call evil Good,  Men who call white black, who want to reap where they did not sow, men who shed innocent blood!  May God reward them.  Amen.

Bofi is 3 yrs old on 1st Nov. but celebration begins today still waxing strong.  He is instrumental in saving the lives of the entire family on Friday September 23rd, 2017 at Open Route Estate, Off Ijede Road, Gbaga, Ikorodu, Lagos. The details of that failed assassination attempt is for  another day and for posterity.

Happy birthday Bofi,  you will continue to fulfil your destiny.  Dog lovers should pls help me celebrated Bofi.
