Let Me See That...Puppy!

Today will be a long, busy day at work (that didn't start with my morning gym and coffee routine) followed by my S.O. being out of town for a good portion of the next week due to business travel. Needless to say...I'm in need of a pick-me up. And as a puppy lover, I figured what better way to get a smile (and maybe spread some smiles, too) other than start a puppy thread!
Share your dog photo/s and even a little story about them if you want. I'll start!
Peyote Bella (a.k.a Ote) is a 4 lb., 5 y.o. Chihuahua. Got her when I moved out at seventeen and she's been my best friend ever since. She goes everywhere with me - literally. My hope is to have her travel to all 50 states, if I ever get around to doing that. She's been to Florida, Virginia, Pennsylvania, Washington D.C. and North Carolina so far.
Dutch Stark is a 130 lb., 10 month old Bullmastiff (who will probably end up at around 180 lbs.) and is a gentle giant. He adores going to the dog park and playing with the neighborhood kids! (Also, myself, my S.O. and his brother are total nerds and made our dogs an Instagram - @oteanddutch)

Puppy bath. If you have never had a puppy bath, that is a must-do in life. An example is shown below, as I don't have any pictures of this myself.

Charlie is part chihuahua and part pug (a chug). He was part of an accidental litter and all the puppies were sold. But his owners brought him back after a few weeks saying he didn't "look enough like a pug".
My friends called, asked if I wanted a dog (or he'd be going to the shelter), and I don't really like chihuahuas but I thought I'd go look anyway because puppies!
The way she handed him to me made it so that I was cradling him like a baby. He licked my face and that was it I was in love lol
@peaceout_aly btw I love that you have like the biggest and the smallest dog
OMG A CHUG. That is an adorable breed! What a freakin' sweetie1 -

Are they Bullmastiffs or English Mastiffs? All so squishable!1 -
There are my *kitten*-holes. Ha ha. The black on is named Apex, and we believe she's some form of American Bully/Pitbull Terrier. We got her as a rescue last February for my spouse's birthday. She's a bit dog aggressive, and is pretty scarred up, but loves people and we're working on her socialization. She lives for balls, bike rides, and snuggles with her dad.
The white and black one is The Dude, or El Duderino if you're not into that brevity stuff, and has been with me for a year (also rescued from California). We believe that he's an american staffordshire Terrier/Blue Heeler mix... but there's no way to really know. He's definitely my dog, and goes with me as often as I can take him. He has some anxiety issues, so we work on that. He loves food and belly rubs more than anything else in the world. We call him Pancake sometimes, because if we're trying to get him to do something he doesn't like, he lays flat as he can (like a pancake).
If we get any more dogs, I'm desperate for a corgi, although my eldest daughter would sell a kidney for a French bulldog/pug cross (a frug?). But the ratio of pounds of dog to square footage of the house is pretty maxed out as it is... although every time I see any bully puppy I lose my crap and ask if we can have him/her.

These are all English mastiffs, I breed them, they are AKC registered. I recently got to Brindled females to add to the family.1 -

Oh wow! Our boy is AKC registered (we got him from Jenkins Family Bullmastiffs in FL, they have Bullmastiffs, English Mastiffs and French Bulldogs) but we'll probably never show him. He's too lazy haha0 -

They look like they love adventuring with you! Perfect athletic pups. I can totally relate to the square footage of the house being maxed out - we're actually in the process of selling our current home and buying a large one...mostly because of the always growing Dutch. LOL1 -

Oh my gosh, everyone's pups are so cute! This is Apollo - my daughter rescued him in Kansas, and I fell in love immediately. He is now living the beach life in Virginia. She was told he's part french bulldog and blue heeler. He loves the beach and chasing waves... but laser pointers and shadows are his weakness. He's smart as a whip and I am really enjoying training him. Next venture is trying to teach him how to run beside my bike!6 -

Let me tell you 'bout my best friend
This is Boston, 9/23 will be the 4 yr anniversary of me bringing him home from the bully breed rescue I volunteer for to foster him. That Jan, I became the best kind of failure there is...a foster failure. I adopted him officially. He is my heart dog, my very best friend. I could not love him more than I do.
