I totally agree, Puff.

I'd be honored to be called a dog, mine is far more of a man than I.

As some of you know Martha and I do Rescue work and I have been gone all day taking this mother and her pups up to West Virginia to a foster home. The mother was brought to a local shelter on Monday and immediately started having the pups on the nasty shelter floor. The place is run by inmates and it took 20 bucks passed to the right inmate to get them move to a clean crate. Tonight they are safe though. Its been a really good day.

That's excellent Doc. Very nice of you both. I'm sure you two secured those dogs chances of a happy life. Originally Posted by Doc

What an awesome idea Icedog!I'm looking forward to seeing what the evil duo are upto now.
I had to give my dog up a few years ago, fortunately my folks are looking after her so I still get to see her a couple of times a year.She is a Shepard cross and I love her to pieces, though can't seem to find a pic at the moment.
My Bro has 2 Staffie's Reggie (Mr Kray) and Frankie.
Frank was an addoption/rescue job as his original owner didn't realise he had ingrowing eyelashes, so he got dumped at the Vets and was never picked up! It was too late to save the sight in his left eye by the time the Vet got hold of him. Poor guy is going to loose the eye alltogether in the next 6 months, but he is still a total nutter!
Reggie on the other hand is a solid tank of a wuss bag! Typical whining Staff who has to be fussed most of the time or he sulks.
And finally this brings us to Georgie, my part-share-with-a-neighbour mutt. I puppysat from the word go while my mate was at work so Spike and I are an extension of her pack. I walk her almost everyday and she can be a real pain so we're going to start re-training soon. One of the other neighbours gave her the antenna thingys, I just HAD to take a pic.

Beautiful BMD, Lynn. My wife and I will get one once we get to a house that's dog-friendly. Wonderful dogs to have around.

Two grumpy old women named Cassie and Freckles. Cassie is a springer/sheltie mix and Freckles is an Eskimo Spitz/unknown creature mix.
One princess (just ask her) name Chica. She's a Pomeranian and belongs to my fiance.

Thankyou all for sharing your wonderful hounds! They are always an utter delight.
We do not have a dog of our own right now, but Georgie, our next door neighbour's dog, is part of our family. Silver walks her most days.
I was very fortunate to grow up on my grandfather's farm with what could only be described as a pack of mastiffs. They numbered between 12 & 18 at one point. My gramdpa maintained that all mastiffs were part something else because the breed numbers got so low that other blood had to be introduced to prevent inbreeding. My father had all of them put to sleep after my grandfather passed on. One of many reasons that I do not speak to him. Those dogs were my childhood companions & better, more trustworthy friends than most humans. Tess, the head bitch, regularly used to stop me getting into trouble or pulled me out of it. Then we had another of our own, Molly, who went to the great kennel in the sky just over five years ago. I adore mastiffs & will have one as soon as we can house it
