Hello, my name is Gee Bee Jr. I'm excited to do a thread for the Canteen! I hope you enjoy. I'd like to share with you how we got our dog. I'd love to hear about your pet(s)!
After years of my Mom trying to convince my Dad, we were finally going to get a dog. One day we went looking for our new dog. My Mom and I went to a shelter. We didn't find a dog. As we were driving home, I had a paper from the shelter that gave other dog shelters with phone numbers. I saw another shelter that we could visit and told my mom. My Mom said, she had enough looking for the day and the last shelter just broke her heart. We wanted to bring all the dogs home. I did talk her into calling.
My Mom called the shelter and they said, two puppies had just arrived an hour ago. We went to go see them. When we got there, Spot or as we call her now, Audie, our dog was there with her brother. We fell in love. My dad didn't want a dog but he loves her so much now. She greets him with excitement every night when he returns home. She is a Dachshund/Terrier mix. Here's a picture of our dog. Look at her eyes, they are so sweet.
I love having Audie to play with, cuddle with and take walks with. She has become a member of our family.
Yelling at me for barking...I'M A DOG, YOU NUMBSKULL!
Taking me for a walk, then not letting me check stuff out. Exactly Whose walk is this anyway?
Any trick that involves balancing food on my nose...Stop it!
Any haircut that involves bows or ribbons. Now you know why we chew Your stuff up when you're not home.
The sleight of hand, fake fetch throw. You fooled a dog! Woooo-Hooooooo! Oh, what a proud moment for the top of the food chain.
Taking me to the vet for "the big snip", then acting surprised when I Freak out every time we go back!
Dog sweaters. Hello??? Haven't you noticed the fur?
Here are a few websites, I have enjoyed visiting.
This is a website, you pick a dog or two, and you get to take care of it, breed it, do tricks and even go into shows. Show Dog
What type of dog are you?? Take the test. Gone to the Dogs
Visit President Bush and First Lady Lauras dogs Barney and Miss Beazley. Fun videos and pictures. Barney & Miss Beasley

Good morning, Everyone. Good morning to our
Military, our Allies, and their families.
Thank you, GeeBee, Jr. for preparing the Canteen for todays activities. And, welcome to the ranks of official posters.
Most of the dogs we've had have been adopted either from the Humane Society or our local pound. We currently have a mixed lab/some-kind-of-hound, which we adopted from the pound. I don't have any pictures of him here at work. He is sort of a chocolate color (I call it more rust color), has a thin build unlike most labs, and is medium height. We named him Jackson because my husband is a war buff, mainly the civil war. He is now approximately 10 years old. He still has bad habits.
Until recently he had a younger brother, named Muddy Waters (I named him after the blues singer and because he has markings that remind me of muddy water) who is a black mixed shepherd/lab. He adopted us. He wandered into our yard about six years ago and would not leave. So, we had to start feeding him and took him to the vet.
Now for an update on the weather in DC Metroland. We are off to a very chilly start. It will warm up today, but only near 50. When I got in my car this morning I noticed we must have had some kind of precip last night. I had ice on my windows. Brrrrrr........I'm ready for real spring!
I hate to rush off, but I see there are some birthdays happening today. I need to do some shopping.
To all newbies and lurkers
But, you stay right where you are. Don't touch that dial. Don't change that channel. Put down that remote. Don't leave the room. Keep your eyes on your monitor. Cause...............I'll be bock!
Now remember, the Canteen is
So, come on in and sit for a while. There's always plenty of coffee, pancakes, conversation, silliness, and plain old BS
REMEMBER THEM
DEFENDERS OF FREEDOM
FR CANTEEN MISSION STATEMENT Showing support and boosting the morale of our military and our allied military and the family members of the above. Honoring those who have served before.
