Okay. Let's here it for dogs. Post your favorite story, picture, adage, movie, etc.

BTW, see #30 for my dog. The sad thing is that he would not have been allowed to go to a home with children because he had been found as a stray. Just look at him with my 3 year old grandson sprawled across his back. He is just great with kids and tolerates all their shenanigans!

"when I looked over to see a big, wandering dog playing with an empty box"

LOL

[Flyer]

you just posted his clone

I got him from a client when I worked at a veterinary clinic. He had a brother that went to another home. Hmmm. . . have long lost doggie brothers been reunited?

Handsome!

And your Max, too. My late Ginger was more the color of yours.

One of my favorite pics:

A Maltese is about as far away as a dog can get from a wolf ....

The Inscription on the front reads as follows:

25 Marine War Dogs gave their lives liberating Guam
in 1944. They served as sentries, messengers, scouts.
They explored caves, detected mines and booby traps.
SEMPER FIDELIS

Kurt	Yonnie	Koko	Bunkie
Skipper	Poncho	Tubby	Hobo
Nig	Prince	Fritz	Emmy
Missy	Cappy	Duke	Max
Blitz	Arno	Silver	Brockie
Bursch	Pepper	Ludwig	Rickey
Tam (buried at sea off Asan Point)

Given in their memory and on behalf of the surviving
men of the 2nd and 3rd marine war dogs platoons, many
of whom owe their lives to the bravery and sacrifice
of these gallant animals.

By William W. Putney DVM C.O. 3rd Marine WarDog Platoon
Dedicated this day 21 July 1994.

I say...CALL PETA. Ask them if they saw that footage of what Saddam did to the Beagle puppies.

Let's tell them they are hypocrits if they don't act. I say call them and call them and call them.

Let's ask them if there were ever a more blatant act of horror to an animal....forget the flies in California -- let's see what PETA is REALLY made of - let's see what they do for a true atrocity!

I am sorry to hear about your loss. My German Shorthaired Pointer is going to be 13 years old and I believe at this point, he is living on love. I am in the grieving process already . I do not know how much longer the good Lord will give him. But he has certainly been a precious gift as I am sure yours was.
Be blessed that you knew the pure love of a dog.
My the good Lord comfort you in this time!

Dogs RULE!

(dog is God spelled backwards, even!)

[NordP]

My Dachshund, James, wants to give you and your dog, some comfort and kisses.

He says, German dogs are better than German countries ;----)

[chicagolady]

You know those Germans, They stick together!

[NordP]

:----)

another, Dachshund smiley face to yah, both!

My goodness gracious, what a thread!

I'm crying like a baby over the WTC link.

Every dog, ever born, just wants a human to love and to be loved by in return. I've got dogs at the Rainbow Bridge, and more to follow. But I want to meet that dog that has "saved up kisses forever" because he's never had a human to love.

If we treated each other as our dogs treat us, this would be a wonderful world, wouldn't it?

"Hmmm. . . have long lost doggie brothers been reunited?"

Nope. His mother came out of PEKAY Kennels in Atlanta. We bread her and she had nine puppies. He was the pick of the litter circa 1993.
