GREAT pics!!! is that a Russian Rottie? or Asian descent? I swear he Looks Russian. Gorgeous dogs! andSENROCK your right, this thread came at the perfect time!!! I don't think I would have made it out of this loss this easily, if not for the great dog owners here. It also makes me realize I am doing the right thing, finding great forever homes for animals in need! thanks for all the support I've gotten from all the other doggie people on here.

This is a doggie that belongs to a friend i grew up with. She told me about him earlier this summer but we havnt hadd a chance to meet. She surprised me the other day and brought him to meet me. If you know me, you can IMMAGINE my squeals of exxxcitement!!!

EVERYONE in my cousins house was laughing at me but i didnt care cuz i was in LOVE! His name is Macho! When i walked in the house, i sat down and a few seconds later, i hear paws on the floor and im like wtf???? Nexxxt thing i know, im greeted by this BEAUTIFUL Bulldog and he wobbles up and sits at my feet and nudges me to pet him!

i cant exxxplain the happiness i felt to have doggie interaction! I miss playing with a dog and petting them and running with them and just regular doggie things. My heart needs it. So it was a very special surprise and Macho and i hung out alllllll night and enjoyed each others company.

Here he is doing the frog legs pose while his owner and i prepared his food!

here he is sleeping! this is what he did for HOURS!!!

i dont usually post my picture online but.....here is me being in total admiration of my new doggie friend!

Let's hope that they continue with their outstanding work ethic. The last couple minutes of the game tonight were intense.

I love those "looking up" type pictures!

Love all the new pics! What a happy looking group of pooches we have on this thread.

Spent New Year's Weekend in upstate NY, competing at an agility trial.

As you can see, we were working hard.

Sailor the yellow Lab is our pillow. Tessie the dark dog is by the wall and I've got my arm around Sweet Pea the coonhound, who is mildly annoyed that my friend woke her up by taking the photo.

I just returned something to Home Depot that I did not actually buy there :shock: . No bag; no receipt. but with Gracie at my side and licking the cashier, it was no problem at all. I knew she was good for something!

Bob says dogs can't look up, mate. No dogs can look up....Sorry I totally thought of that scene when I read that.for those wondering, it's from Shaun of The Dead.

Gorgeous!

If you squint, the photo on the left of the signature looks like the rarest of all dogs, the Two-Headed Pinscer.

I've seen similar scenes at dog shows before. Sleeping in a crate or an ex pen.

For many years I've belonged to an Obedience training club and we put on several fun matches every year. We had one yesterday so I spent the day working at it. I was a steward in Utility and if you know anything about Obedience you know that I was hopping!

Anyway, I saw so many beautiful dogs, as I always do. If I hadn't been so busy I'd have taken some pictures. I did get to meet a few of them, including a Border Collie who gave me kisses and a gorgeous Belgian Shepherd. But my favorite was a little bitty Border mix who dances with his owner! They do routines to music. She demonstrated how he can prance around, lifting his front paws way up and twirling around. It was SO CUTE! She also bent over and he jumped up on her back! Then she said "Jump off the cliff" and he jumped back down. We told her that she's got to get him on YouTube.

Lost my Hankie this past summer to a sudden attack of bloat. He was just playing and then, 15 mins later, gone. Still hard to talk about. For 7 1/2 years, since he was 6 wks old, and we met him at the boxer rescue (Hank is half boxer and half chow) he was my best friend, my constant companion, and full of the most awesome wonderful unconditional love anyone could ever ask for. 85 pounds of pure joy .. a lap dog in a clown's body. Sometimes I think I still hear him in the back seat of the car, getting a little excited when we pull into the bank drive thru. heheee.. R.I.P. Hankie. I love you and miss you so.

First of all, THANK YOU for deciding to post pics of Hank!

Second, im reeeeally sorry for your loss. Its been 3 years since Surfer passed and its still a tough topic. Just this weekend someone asked me where he was and what happened. I couldnt even talk about it.

So just know that in here, you are understood!

Hank looks soooooooooooo snuggly and playful! I love these pictures! Thank you SO much for posting them!

P.S i added Hanks name to the first post of this thread!

PJaddicted · January 2011

Sorry for your loss of Hank. He was a beautiful boy. Do try take comfort that he didn't suffer too much. My own baby Petey has DCM, and is headed for Congestive Heart Failure. There is a part of me that wants to have him here with me till the last possible minute no matter what, but deep in side I want him to never suffer like he is going to, to die sudden never getting sick. He is only 4, and in the prime of his life. He is already spending most of his days sleeping.

Please share more pictures and stories. No matter how long they are gone, we never get over not having them physically in our lives, but we do learn to celebrate their lives, to honor them and to live with the pain. When you can...open your heart to another needy dog...there are so many out there that need YOU.
