She’s an awesome dog. I happy she won.
I figured what was going on with my “index”.
Somehow I had it set for “comments tab “ so I was seeing articles I had commented on.
Fixed.
Oh my gosh!
Hillary lost again?
Not surprised. Demand has prices sky-high already.
I’ve been trying to get a pup for years, but alas, a fixed income won’t stretch to the purchase price.
Oh, well, as Jim Morrison said, the future’s uncertain and the end is always near.
I thought for sure the Russian Wolf Hound would have won? The DNC must be unaware of the AKC?
Ever consider a rescue dog or a mix?
Q: What’s black & tan and looks good on Michael Moore?
A: Rumor the German shepherd.
They just have a look of intelligence don’t they? Never owned one but have always liked the breed.
“Ever consider a rescue dog or a mix?”
A lot of people have said that to me over the years, usually with a facial expression generally reserved for child molesters and democrats.
If I get another dog, it will be my last. I’d rather not spend my remaining time with the wrong dog.
I had to give up my Shepherd when I went in the military all those decades ago. There were decades when I could not have a dog because I lacked the space. Can’t keep one on a ship of the line, you know.
Now, finally, I have the space and the time, but—call me a curmudgeon if you like—the heart wants what the heart wants.
Loving, loyal, intelligent, playful, menacing, and deadly. Best breed ever.
Breeders often dump GSD pups with hip dysplasia.
I paid 225$ for my rescue GSD. She was 1.5 years old at the time, and weighed 52 lbs, because she had been abandoned and starved.
Best money I ever spent. Turns out she was priceless. She’s about 5 now, best friend I ever had.
I can’t even begin to tell you how rescuing a GSD enriched my life.
There are German Shepard rescues. A friend adopted two, one is a Belgian or Dutch Shepard. They are hard to come by but if willing to drive to meet them, this might make it possible. Good luck!
No you are not a curmudgeon...I know because people cal me that LOL. Just wanted to be helpful with idea of mis or rescue, but you know what you know...maybe your relatives will pool resources and give you one as a gift if they are made aware of your wish :) )
One of the funniest movies, ever!
It was a great show and I had Rumor in my top two from the start of the night. The night was particularly wonderful because my friend and fellow Watertown, NY native, Tom Bradley, was the best of show judge. Tom had been director of the show for many years, and finally retired last year. This was a great honor for him and he did us all proud.
And Fred Willard stole the whole thing.
