    Two German Shepherds and a Labrador retriever.

    The oldest GSD came with my husband. He sort of ended up with him. The second we didn't "choose", he is a working dog. My Lab i picked because my ex didn't want a GSD, but I am very happy with him. I mostly wanted a running partner.

    I have a Chihuahua and an Italian Greyhound now, but the one I miss every single day is the beautiful Isabella, a Sloughi:

    We have a Chihuahua mix named Mochi. His ears are fully up now and not floppy like they were below. Totally miss the floppiness! He (along with his siblings) were the accident/product of a puppy mill over in MO. I used to dislike small dogs and discounted them as not being 'real dogs' because they weren't 50 lbs + but I've grown to love them all! Like a big dog, Mochi loves to fetch (and will actually bring the ball back every single time), does dock diving and swimming, and is involved with flyball. He's ridiculously intelligent and is the reason why I started to exercise more! And go out in general haha.

    we rescued a dog named Penny. She's a shepherd/lab cross and about 2 years old. She is my fur baby for sure. I didn't choose her though, my fiance saw a poster up "free dog" and texted me to ask if I wanted her. Of course I wanted her. Best decision ever, minus the fact that she runs away when the gate is open (not for very long), she is very well behaved and beautiful.

    It's a Western Hognose, much prettier than the Eastern Hognose which are a dark blackish-brown color. I bought him at a reptile show when he was a baby. He was about 6 inches long and about as big around as a pencil. I have had him close to 10 years and he's a little over 12 inches now and about as big around as a sharpie. He's a cool little guy.

    Her name is Penny, and she's a shepherd/lab cross. I didn't choose her, my fiance saw a "giving away for free" poster and he asked if I wanted her. I immediately said yes and she has become my fur baby.

    Chihuahua-X

    Not sure what the "X" is... some sort of terrier, pomeranian maybe?

    I never thought I'd ever get a chihuahua, I thought they were terrible animals! But after my last dog died, I volunteered to foster dogs. I was brought two little chi mixes. They had obedience training, they were so sweet, I fell in love and adopted them myself! One passed away a few months ago (RIP Brahma, the black one) but the other one is still healthy and strong (Darshan, the orange one).

    Thanks! He's a super high energy dog. I'm not sure if Chihuahuas can normally run as much as he does, but we're thinking he's some type of terrier mix due to his extremely high prey drive and love for fetching. Our vet thinks he's an Italian Greyhound or Whippet mix due to his energy level and stomach curvature haha. I'd like to do a DNA test (I know they can be pretty whacky/inaccurate) just for the fun of it!

    You can't have spaces in the file name. So if it were (example) Penny the dog....change it to PennyTheDog

    Kuma's the complete opposite...lol. She's 2-3 years old and the most low energy dog I've ever come across. she likes to play now and again, but prefers just laying about..hahaha. I never thought I'd have or know a dog that I'm more active than..hahaha

    We have a Boxer who will be 1 in 2 weeks.she is as ADHD as I've ever seen a dog!! Got her at 7 months, her owner wanted her for a guard dog and left her crated 99% of the time. Luckily he got some sense and gave her away. Wealways wanted a Boxer but had a hard time finding pure bred. She is pictured to the left. Her name is Charlie

    Also have a merliquin Great Dane named Echo, he just turned 3 last week. He believes he is human and is very spoiled. Currently weighs in at 140 lbs ???? we had another Dane We had to put down due to hip issues so we got him! He is pictured in my profile.

    Found her at the Humane Society 4 years ago--she turns 5 in October:
