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

I LOVE dogs and we have 3.

This is Gracie. She ran out of time at the humane society, but a no-kill shelter took her in and she spent several months there. We adopted her 3 years ago She's been a challenge and it's clear that she's been abused in the past, but she's a happy girl now! In this first picture, she had an eye deformity, but has since had surgery and it no longer bothers her.



This is Ellie, my 85 lb lap dog, we adopted 2 years ago. She was one of my foster dogs who completely stole my heart! She had a very bad case of mange and was going to be euthanized at the humane society. She's the sweetest dog I've ever met!



This is Toby. He was also one of my foster dogs. He was in 3 different homes, the humane society, and a no-kill shelter before he came to us. He's a very stubborn little man, but he cracks me up! We adopted him 2 years ago.

I have a Golden Retriever named Kirby, 1 1/2 years old. She is my walking partner. We are up to 3 miles everyday. Keeping her slim and fit is the best motivation I have ever had to get myself back into shape.

Did you know 2 or more pets = a pack! I have a sweet blond lab mix who is a good protector (loud), but gentle as a lamb. She is always happy to see me and never holds a grudge. I also have a cat. The dog likes to stay inside, the cat, Jacks is the outdoorsman.

I just brought my Australian, Kitti, back in from a romp out in our first snowfall of the winter. She loves to play "catch" with snowballs, but gets a totally perplexed look on her face when she catches a snowball in her mouth and it turns into just a mouthful of snow (I don't pack them very much).

These pictures are awesome! Thanks to the OP for posting this thread!

And to all of you who foster and/or adopt...THANK YOU FOR SAVING A LIFE!!!

PS - Please spay and neuter your pets. There aren't enough homes for them all! :flowerforyou:

Thanks OP!!

Our puppy

CUTE!! Those ears are awesome!! :laugh:

I have one dog and one cat. My dog is a lab/irish setter mix, she is 3 years old and her name is Delilah. We just adopted her this past summer. She is a great dog, barks too much but other than that she is perfect! When I get home I will post a pic, I do have one in my pics here though if anyone wants to see her.

All of the dogs posted are adorable!

I love my guys they kept me going after my divorce. They do motivate me to take them for a walk everyday, but the rest of the time they make me lazy because they like to sleep in my lap all day.

Beautiful! Makes me miss my Dusty girl!





Rest in peace my beautiful baby girl.

It's been a month without you, and you are dearly missed. You were the most loyal dog.
You waited until everybody was home, before you took your last breath.
Was one of the hardest days for me, but you will never be forgotten.

well this made me burst into tears! I'm so sorry for your loss Sounds like she was the best dog ever.

my dogs - see pic of one - are my life i have dumped boyfriends for them, moved apt cause of them... mo (pict) had gain 3lbs on his 7lb frame cause of my love... he got dogfitnesspal first he's skinny now my turn!

go dogs for being awesome- go all the other animals for being just as awesome!

although, sadly only down to the lab and the cat. our other dog Max (black) passed a couple Christmas Eve's ago. that was rough!

all were rescue dogs (2 SPCA and one private rescue). and they are AWESOME. perfect pets.
