Cal, Jenny is a cutie. Is she a miniature Schnauzer?

I was amused last evening by Miss Joy's buddy, Flossie, an Aussiedor. What a way to sleep, that's her dog bed above her head. ::hmm::

We have a litter of English Shepherd pups, and another litter to be born any day. Lol. It’s babies everywhere right now.

Here’s the current Mom and Dad. The male dog wants to get to those puppies so bad and sniff them over, but momma won’t have it at all lol. Poor feller, this is her first litter and she hasn’t forgiven him yet.

Here is Remington. Chocolate Lab of course. Dog came all the way from Muleshoe TX. Kieth gifted her to my kids. But she has become my dog. Best big dog I believe I have ever had. She is great with my kids which are 8-5-3. We were talking one day and we were talking how the kids need a dog. He began to tell me about this pup he had picked out of his litter and was gonna keep for himself..... well as you can see that didn’t work out like he planned. He drove the dog all the way from Muleshoe TX to Unicoi TN. Thank you kindly kieth we all appreciate her.

Great pets everyone. Kind like our varied interest in knives. Lots of unique critters.

Not to single one out but Justin’s post hit home for me. Beautiful dog Justin and good on you Keith. Congratulations to both my friends.

My 11 year old chocolate lab was sick a couple weeks ago. Clogged nostrils and no energy. Figured it was a respitory thing but her stomach was swollen.
Basically within one week (who knows how long it was brewing), full blown cancer and internal bleeding. Too week and old for surgery or treatment. I asked doc what you do if it was your dog. I trust this doc very much. Kind of expected the answer. I loved that dog. In shock a bit. Figured her time was coming given her age but did not expect to have to put her down that day.

Lost a good friend that day.

My other dog just doesn’t understand why she is not there. Freaked out.

They say animals don’t have souls therefore cannot go to heaven. Could be misquoting that but I heard opinions on this.
Personally, I cannot believe a creature God made is not allowed in heaven. No reply required as I am not trying to start a theological discussion. Just mourning.

Miss her greatly. She was my best friend. Hope God has a spare shotgun I can borrow in heaven assuming I keep on the straight and narrow.

Jerry - my heart is broken to learn that Nikki has left this world. As I was reading your post my dog Holly came into my office at the exact moment that a tear started to well-up and sat by my side looking to have her ears rubbed. I will keep you and your family in my thoughts and prayers, I'm glad you had some wonderful experiences with her but the sudden loss must be very difficult. We are here for you brother. ::handshake:: ::pray::

I appreciate the empathy, prayers and condolences Gents. It helps in some way.

We always had family dogs but Nikki was my first dog that was mine. Not as a possession or ownership but as a bond.

We were so connected. I was hers and she was mine.

Whomever first said “Man’s Best Friend” knew what they were talking about.

Regards, Jerry

I am so sorry for your loss.

We have a twelve year old female. Dreading the day.

Our vet has stated that a female dog will develop cancer if they live long enough. It's inevitable.

And more likely if the dog is ever allowed to breed.

I think there's a reason dog's age more rapidly than we do and I'm not talking about biological, genetic or scientific.

I think it's so we can be exposed to and loved by as many as possible in our short sojourns on earth.

Jerry I too feel your pain. I went through this with my beloved "Bud" nearly three years ago and to this day I still miss him. Having him put down was one of the hardest things I've ever done but his suffering left me no choice. A special dog like your Nikki is hard to part with.
