For all the *actual* dog lovers out there...

I love my damn dog, and my life has been enriched by every dog that I've owned. :drinker:

This. Better get back to cuttin' tail holes in diapers, dude. XD

We have a mutt. She's amazingly stupid. Hates UPS trucks and their drivers, be they right outside or a block away. She "takes care" of our kidlet when she's not well. Can't go outside first thing in the morning until she's spastically greeted everyone in the house by running into them with a snarly smile. I love her to bits.

Hey Miss,

Nice Jersey cow in your siggie...is she yours? We have a cow and her heifer.

.......no outfit is complete without dog hair.

EXACTLY. I have two beagles...
i always carry a mini lint roller in my purse because of them haha (:

Theodore Bearington "Teddy Bear" says hi:

OMG! So cute!!!

Here's a picture of my Siberian Huskies - they mean the whole world to me and I wouldn't be without any of them!! We've had the girls since pups but we rescued Kai when he was 10 months old and Shadow when he was 2...this is Shadows 5th (and forever) home :-))

L-R:

Mya, 20 months - Kai (Siberian Husky x Alaskan Malamute), 2 years 4 months - Delilah, 11 months - Shadow, 3 years 3 months.

I am sure you get lots of dog sledding jokes wherever you go!

Diapers? On a DOG?

I'm quessing you are American.

Wow. Rude.

We have 2 lab mixes. Maggie is 12 and a rescue, she's moved all over the country with us. ANd Missy is 7. She's a begador (half lab, half beagle) but looks like a little lab. They are "the girls." To say they are spoiled is an understatement. I don't think either dog is capable of sleeping on the floor, always on the couch or a bed. They are all about the comfort. I always say it's their house, we just pay the mortgage!

We lost one of our fur babies in November.
Her name was Sasha (after the DJ)
We had her over 12 years, but she had a skin complaint and was suffering from separation anxiety when ever my wifey went out.

She woke us up scratching against the wardrobes. Unfortunately she was having a fit that lasted over 10mins.
When she eventually came out of the fit, she couldn't stand on her back legs...
(We have had two cats that also had fits and it is not a nice thing to see.... Both are with Sasha)

I had to go have Sash put to sleep that early morning. The Vet was nice and gave me all the time in the world.
Sash went to sleep so easily and without a murmur.
The one thing that we are happy about is that her eyes were closed...

All the other three dogs miss her terribly.
We have got 2 Jack Russell's and a Labrador/Staffy cross (who is a bit special needs really.... He is so thick it's unreal)

i have a collie mutt who is just over a year old, her name is Kula. she makes me laugh...a lot! she's one of those types who are both stupid and smart, which can be pretty frustrating at times cause you never know which one she is going to be. she has 3 cat brothers who all react quite differntly to her, but for the most part they all get along.

i got Kula for 2 reasons. the first and most important one was because i would have to walk her. honestly. i hate walking, but knew i needed to get exercise, and walking is the easiest thing to do. so, having a dog that needs to go for walks sure makes it harder to put it off.
second, i saw her picture posted on kajiji from a rescue organization, at that time her name was Eeyore, and she just lept of the computer screen and grabbed onto me and would not let me stop thinking about her. lol. lucky for me the rescue place was going to have a meet and greet at a local pet store, so next morning i rushed down there and she has been mine since a nice woman put this wriggley little happy pup in my arms. i am a cat girl, always have been, but when the right dog came along, my cats had to learn to share!

My baby, $hithead (it's the only thing she answers to haha)

My babies! Ranger is 6 and Moka is almost 11 months.





Moka's first day here:




Annnd here's an old vid of Ranger being jealous. He does this any time I get anywhere near my husband. He's in LOVE with my husband lol. It's dark and my house is a disaster because we were in the middle of remodeling, but you really just need the audio anyway.

Get that little miss spayed!!!! Best thing you can do for her and the pet population!! Having your animal spayed or neutered is the number one way to show your love!!!!

I've had my dog Inca since she was 4 months olds she was a rescue. i trained her to help me around the house (I'm a wheelchair user),. she can empty washing machine and dyer, open and close doors, turn light switches on and off (ones on wall you flip down), helps me pull clothes off, picks stuff up etc.. she's a great help.

She will be 11 this year and supposed to be retired as assistance dog but try telling her that!.. she sulks if I empty the washing machine without her... lol!

Inca is my lifeline, my 'little girl' and I love her to bits!

This is my baby Lilly, We got her from a shelter 2 years ago. I love how many people on this thread rescued dogs, I think they know and are extra great for thier owners. We think she is a Pitt Bull/ Beagle mix but it is hard to say. She loves to sing and talk, run, lay in the sun and nap. She is not great with other dogs so we are not abble to get a friend. She is mine and my boyfriends everything!

We have two dogs that I love with all my heart. Daisy is a big St. Bernand/Lab mix. She is just a big dumb dog that just loves to be loved. She has to be touching one of us all the time, so much so that she will fall asleep sitting up with her head in our lap. Emma is a little brown mutt. We have no idea what she is, but man she can run. She is about half the size of Daisy and completely opposite. She likes to be alone, very independent. But, loves to lay in front of the fireplace in the winter. She is a sweet dog that is far too smart for her own good.

My life wouldn't be the same without them.

I'm lovin' all this dog lovin'!!
