Congratulations to Mystix on his new dog, Noel.

"... My dog.. His name is Noel, yes I said HIS. He is a German Shepard, Akita mix.. He is so very beautiful. His owners have had him since he was born and he’s four now.. They kept him inside and his owner loved him very much. His owners wife however grew tired of him and took him to the pound or the shelter or whatever.. They were going to put him to sleep because he had been there too long.. He is a big dog.. 100+ pounds, and they didn’t think anyone would want a dog like that and after a while they put them down.. .. So, I went to see him Sunday and when I got there and the girl brought him out he was beautiful. He loves me too.. [Mystix Manor] (check out his awsome Mystic graphics!)
