Cute pup ElGato! I was a volunteer on our Humane Society board for years....but forced myself not to stop at the shelter often as I would invariably bring another dog home. Funny...found our Rusty (Rodesian Ridgeback)through FR...he was in an LA shelter and we had him shipped to Ohio...best move we ever made!)

Never heard of a Catahoula breed. Was it a crossbreed???

That is such a sweet picture of your greyhound. You must miss her terribly. She does look human there!

"Cottraux" is my beyond unique last name. It makes for an interesting screen name.

Yes...and I bet people "butcher it" all the time in pronounciation. Your tag line has new meaning LOL. So is it French?

Are you the Duchess of any major kingdoms?

Nothing that exotic sad to say. Screen name derived from my beloved first and long departed dog. (see the dog thing connection?????)

Boy isn't that the truth. I've personally been with Dolly several times and she has more energy then any 20 year old!

Wolfie would never neglect *you*, you're blond AND perky. : )

Okay...now don't push it or the other sistahs might get a little jealous!!!! :o) Okay...have to run!!!

Some animals are more human than some people.

I recently lost a cat who was definitely a human in a cat uniform. I miss her. She always tried to talk.

He is a sweetie and I'll bet a ton of energy.

. I have never had a puppy. In fact I didn't even have my first dog until 4 years ago. I have two self rescues (not from shelter) and they have been good pets. GOt Oliver right after 911(in the river while I was kayaking) & this past Labor Day Oliver brought home Toby. toby is about 6-9 months old. Oliver about 5.

They are wonderful but surely more work than my cats over the years. I have many kitites also. do rescue

Ah, makes sense now. I assumed you weren't the Duchess of York.

Yes, I've met few people in my life who could pronounce my last name. I've heard everything from "Cooo-Troe" to "Cottrux" to "Coat Racks" to "Kotex." And "Cockroach" of course.

My Great Great Great Grandfather was from France. He moved to New Orleans as a boy. Later in life, he started his own coffee company. Most people don't know this, but Cottraux Coffee was actually nationally famous in its time.

Rush Limbaugh is the cats meow, and being able to access his show anytime is great! :-)

Yes, I hope he reads the message, AND posts the pictures of HOTD's cute little kittens!!! He gets so many e-mails...but, we can keep our fingers crossed! :-)

Thanks...I'm so glad HOTD pinged me! I love this thread...great job!

Dutchess is about the sweetest thing around & if she werent happily married, I would fix you two up... maybe she has a sister????

RE: your name. I had a very difficult slavic maiden name & married a gent with a diffiuclt German name. When I got divorced I decided I no longer wanted to spell, re-spell, pronounce & re-pronoune my last name again.

So I found a NICE easy name & changed it!
