You could not be more correct...

The big guy was Timber. He was my guardian angel, roommate, best friend and confidant. I got him in '98 when I returned from a tour in Korea. The little scrawny waif is Ranger, and the pic was taken shortly after I adopted him as a Katrina rescue in 2005. Ranger was heartworm + and severely malnourished, and Timber took to him just like a big brother. For the next two years we were the three musketeers, until Timber died of a stroke in his sleep one night in 2007. Thank God I had Ranger there to come home to every night. Now Ranger is getting up there in years with some frost around the muzzle, and I think it's about time we pull another one into the fold...

Awww Joe, Beautiful, beautiful dogs!

I can tell by the photo you have given them a good life. It’s hard to quantify, but darn it, they give us so much joy. RIP Timber and I hope Ranger is able to be in your life for a long time still. There’s nothing like a dog.

Doggie lovers,

Please set your DVDs for the Thanksgiving ‘dog-a-thon’ on Fox at 8 pm.

The show was shot on Friday and Saturday so all the dogs will be available for adoption or foster.

The German Shepherd Rescue of Orange County was selected to bring the only German shepherd so a beautiful dog named Octavia will be shown. Last month she was scavenging scraps in central CA and was brought to Orange County by a kind family.
