FREEPER BARK PARK: No Leashes Required

[Joe 6-pack]

As per the request of many, here's a holiday gathering place for FReeper dog lovers...grab some hot cider, have a seat in front of the fire with your faithful companion curled up at your feet and tell your dog stories here, share your pics, and enjoy!

This is a friendly gathering, and is NOT the place to bash pit bulls, argue about whether dogs were created or evolved, etc. Those that can't keep a muzzle on it will end up in the doghouse.

Although this is primarily for members of the FReeper Doggie Ping List, non-members who happen to stray in will be welcome and are also invited to post pics of your iguanas, ferrets, exotic fish or whatever other furred, feathered or finned companions you'd care to share with us.

As some of you know, I've been working back in the northeast for a few months and found some time in my schedule to make a pilgrammage to New Skete Monastery on Saturday morning. I'll look forward to all the pics and pet stories tomorrow evening when I get back!

Enjoy!!

Your GSP looks like a beauty and in great shape. Even though Sparky is gone it marvels me that I still think about him everyday....and smile! He stayed around for 15 years, his favorite pastimes were swimmming, chasing the tennis ball and #1 was MUNCHING!!

A rescue run by a good friend of mine.

Her heart is bigger than her house (or budget.) She’s been saving little doggies from the puppy mills for some time now.

I wish I had more pics that are world-viewable but here's a recent one on the run!

Thank you so much! She’s definitely spoiled! But with a face like that, how can I resist? All she has to do is look at me with those big brown eyes and I melt. LOL! This is a great thread you started. Love seeing everyone’s “babies” and their stories!

[November Gale]

Thank you! But I won’t tell Suzi Q you said that though! She already thinks she’s a Hollywood starlet! LOL! She just loves to have her picture taken. As a matter of fact, she knows when I get the camera out. She gets excited. Then she gets mad when I put the camera away. She barks and runs in circles - I think she has some type of complex or something! Ha!

And here’s yet another Suzi Q video (Suzi Q’s 15-minutes of fame, Part 2):

Talk about spoiled?!?!?

Your videos make me think of the old Iggy Pop song, "I Wanna Be Your Dog." ;-)

Swiper and my youngest were watching Mickey's Christmas Carol together...

And our newest addition Zero, fresh from the pound.

Here's the two of them together, filled with the Christmas Spirit:

Introducing the Schnauzer Mafia....

Everyone say "HI" to Miss Rosa! 4 year old blak lab/chow mix I brought home from the shelter a few weeks ago.

Negotiations with the cats took a couple of weeks, but an agreement was reached and the house is quiet again.

Right now she's camped out in front of the pantry 'cuz she knows that's where the rawhide treats are. Guess I better get up and get her one...;-)

[NicNacPattyWac]

Your kids are adorable!!!!! Greetings from my boys!

[Joe 6-pack]

Awesome!! Miss Rosa may be our newest FReeper dog...Welcome to the pack!

[LongElegantLegs]

Ah, lobsterhounds... Very nice. :-P

[NicNacPattyWac]

They’re a very “rare” breed, but tend to be a little “crabby” ;-)
