What makes you love your dog???

This is Fizzgig.

There is literally nothing to not love about my dog. I love every fiber of his being. I have a boston terrier with cerebellar hypoplasia. Basically he has a neurological disorder which causes an extreme lack of balance, circling, and intention tremors. He falls down all the time and runs into things and has a bobble head. But he's just so damn adorable and lovable.

My lab/lurcher/whippet Odie . . .hes changed my life! I owe a lot of my weight loss to him! We were both attacked by another dog 3 months ago and we are slowly getting over it together!

A dog is the only creature that will love you more than it love's it's self.

And I believe that My Gabriel is no exception. It's almost like even when I'm at my worst and lowest he tries to make me smile. He's traveled the country with me for nearly a year now and is always excited for the next adventure! Being on the road all the time makes it so hard to have friends. But He does all he can to make up for that I'm sure. I couldn't have asked for a better dog.





He's such a character xD



Beautiful Gabe, We all love waking up to this first thing in the morning.

Here are my boys:

Champ, Black Lab x Golden retriever. He is about 3 years old and is so smart, sweet but also a very good guard dog.





And this is Ollie (Oliver). Chocolate Lab X Australian Shepherd. He is almost 3 and is the bigger of the 2 but he thinks he is a lap dog. He is a big baby, but he is also a VERY good guard dog.





He also has the longest tongue EVER:



They are best buds:

My Freya, I love this little dog more than life:

So many handsome and pretty furbabies in this thread.

here are mine, Ozzy is the black pitt/boxer mix. ( Hubby teases I love Ozz more than him, and he is only half wrong lol) Hendrix is the full blooded stafforshire terrier and is Ozz's dad. Hera is the little feline minx that thinks she runs the house!

I love these two sooo much! They are definately spoiled brats but have such different personalities, Winnie is the typical little girl princess while Stanley is a rough and tumble little boy, an example of this would be when I was walking with them on the trail, we can across a mud puddle, Winnie sat down and refused to go any further while Stanley started running around though it

I don't have a dog, but opened this thread because I LOVE dogs and would love to have one in the next few years.

My question for you all, and I hope this isn't TMI and that I can get an honest answer here.. If you have a dog and live with your significant other, how does it effect your love life? I mean that generally and ALSO in the bedroom.. do you still get ALONE time as much as you need it?

I hope the pictures post. I've never posted them here before.

I love my youngest golden, Danny, because he embraces life totally and completely. I say he has a Peter Pan complex and never wants to grow up. He adores every single foster puppy I bring into the house and delights in playing with them.







Jasper is my Eeyore. He is so serious all the time. But he is totally and completely devoted to me and I simply adore him. He had a really hard start in his life and I know he loves his life now.



He and Danny really like each other, they love to play together and tend to be partners in crime.





Jasmine is my queen bee and the boys love that about her. They don't have to think because she tells them what to do. She is very protective of them and of me. She'll be 11 in January, but she's a little energizer bunny and just keeps going and going and going.

lol it doesnt affect the bedroom at all cos hes not allowed upsatairs (the dog obvs!!) . . . but he has pushed my husband off the sofa before so he can cuddle up to me instead!!

This is Gabs the Mutt. She's doing her "*kitten*, that's a camera. NO LOOKY AT YOU" thing.

We got her from a foster agency which collects dogs from rural kill shelters and rehomes them. She's very emo; I would not be surprised to find her with black-dyed fur and heavy eyeliner one morning. She is also amazingly useless at lots of doggy-type things like spotting food on the floor -- she's horrible at that. Scared of bugs more-so than I am, which is quite a feat. She excels at a few things like: alerting me to UPS drivers who happen to be delivering packages 3 blocks down or keeping the yard clean of that dastardly rabbit/squirrel poo. Her breath, I believe, would make the malodorous taint of Satan smell like the dew on newly blossomed flowers on a cool Spring morn.

Love her to bits, stank and all. (Well, not so much the stank.)

my 55 pound golden retriever mix thinks she's a 5 pound lap dog.

So it's not just my dog! My baby boy is 65 pounds but thinks he is tiny enough to sit on laps too!

Nope not just yours! My Baby girl is 85-90lbs and thinks she's a lap dog. And that it's ok to sit on mommy so she can't go somewhere without her. She is 1/2 german sheppard and 1/2 lab.

Today is my Dogs 6th Birthday. English Bulldog, and her name is Dixie. Unconditional love, and shes always waiting at the top of the steps for me when I get home with her butt wagging, waiting to be pet! She snores, she farts, she jumps in the bed every day around 6am, but I love her just the same!!

<======There she is!!

My profile picture is my Lilly baby. We adopted her 3 years ago and love her to bits. She is so funny and caring and always wants to be with us no matter what, she doesn;t run off either which is amazing. My boyfriend and I always say she is the perfect dog and we wish we could clone her! Her brindle coat is so funny uo look at as well.

mcrowe1016

Ummm...My husband and I just kick them off the bed. They leave us alone for as long as we need

My Alice and Zane are well behaved and don't come between my husband and I.

I can honestly say I have spent more money on my dog than me...she was a diabetic. with thyroid and addisons...
For 5 years she had to have 2 shots a day of insulin and pills for the other...Sissy was the love of my life as
far as dogs go..She lived to be 12 years and 8 months...I MISS HER SOOOOO BAD...:sad:

kmcrey87

what a beauty! i grew up with a rough collie he was the best brother anyone could ask for (my mother and i still talk about him and he passed away 5 years ago)

Thank you! She is my world! I actually cried on her 5th bday a few weeks ago because I realized in two years she will be considered a "senior"!

The unconditional love we receive from our dogs is directly related to the idea that "dog" is "God" spelled backwards.
