Bill Cady, The Early Years … by Bill Cady 185<br />

Thug was extremely unusual in a number of different ways. For starters, he was<br />

an autocrat. He ran his area of authority as he saw fit. Anyone who disagreed with his<br />

edicts got their ass kicked. Real simple way to live. Obey Thug, or he‟ll make you wish<br />

you had. He made allowances for people, since we were the primary providers of food.<br />

The truly unusual part about Thug was his incredible prejudice. He hated dogs.<br />

Of course, he killed cats, but who the hell wouldn‟t if they could catch „em and do<br />

away with the scheming little shits without even getting a scratch? He was okay with<br />

people, although he wouldn‟t allow anyone to hurt me, or anything I owned, which<br />

included my folks and that David thing, as he saw it.<br />

He just had this huge hard-on to hurt dogs. Any dogs. All dogs. There was only<br />

one way they could stay safe from him, and he taught those dogs well. If he saw a dog on<br />

its own property, he‟d stare at it and scare the piss out of the animal, especially if it was<br />

one he‟d already whipped. Yet, even if he hadn‟t thrashed this mutt in the past, none of<br />

„em wanted to mess with him.<br />

If he found any dog off its own property, not even on ours, but anyplace that<br />

wasn‟t that dog‟s yard, he‟d attack. He fought just like a wolf, using that big front<br />

shoulder to hit the other one and knock him down. Once the dog was down, Thug would<br />

chew the hell out of him.<br />

If a dog stayed up and wanted to fight face to face, Thug always managed to<br />

overpower him and knock him down. His ultimate panache was after he defeated the<br />

errant mutt. He‟d stand over the dog, now on its back with the tail between its legs on the<br />
