Got my puppy at 9 weeks old and have always treated her as a dog - you responsible dog owners know what I'm talking about  .
Now she's 3 years old.  She rarely barks...and then only one or two woofs; never chews on what's not hers, and the only human she has ever put her teeth on is me - my hand is her favorite toy; the toy that plays back  .  She knows just how hard to grab and when I say it's enough...she happily quits.

First picture when I discovered my new digital camera had a close-up mode:


You have to be happy and well-balanced to let your "parents" pose you for a Christmas card:

Great pics all the way around!!

Thanks so much for starting this thread again, I hate that the other one was ruined.  A good part of that was my own fault though, for biting back, so sorry for that. 

At any rate, thanks for posting the pics, I love seeing them (especially the Rotts and Pits, my two favorites, but any happy dog is great). 

I'll try and get some good new pics of Sadie in the next week, she's already getting so muscular, she's just gorgeous and as sweet as can be.  In the next month or so it'll be time for her first puppy training class.  I'm so excited for her, and for me as well. 

Thanks for the part deux!!

didn't mean to double post ...sorry guys

[maddafinga]

Yep, I got it and saved it Betty, thank you!  I really appreciate it.

It's crazy to me how much Tank looks like Cadence, though he looks taller and leggier than Cadence, and not as stocky I don't think.

Dogs Rule, Cats Drool!! (ok ok, I had ta' say it)

Homeward Bound - perhaps one of the funniest animal movies ever done.

These pics are of my two beasts. They were taken not too long after I got them, about a year and a half ago. Both dogs are from a shelter. Hope was abused in her former life she is missing an eye because someone thought she made a good target for their pellet gun. Goober was born in the shelter, and he makes me laugh every day.

I'll try and get some more current pics if I can get them to co-operate.

Hope, she is just so sweet I can't fathom how someone could ever hurt her.


Goober, relaxing in his favorite place.

Those are great pics man!  I'm glad Hope has a good home now where she's loved and cared for.  We got Chico from the shelter too, I've been glad of it every day since.

Funny thing is I got them from a shelter in Chico CA.

Here is my 80 pound Bulldog taking a nap with my oldest daughter

And her smiling for the camera.............if thats what you want to call it.

That is kind of funny.  I wonder where the name for that town came from.  I named my guy after the Marx brother.  My first dog I ever had as an adult out on my own was a Rottweiler that I named Groucho.  I'm a fan.  

Edit:  Hehe Dnya, that's an 80 pound dog stuffed in a 40 pound dog's body.  Great pics man, that close up made me smile too!

[Maniac]

Very nice dogs!

 

[JHerne]

I love bulldogs - so ugly they're cute!

That picture of Hope...really makes me mad. I've never had second thoughts about dropping the gloves against anyone, but I just can't see how people could hurt an animal. Just enrages me. 

I'm glad she's got a happy home - she's seems to be a happy pup.

I wish the "abusers" received the identical treatment of the "one's affected".   It pisses me off when reading about animal abuse.   Not trolling, I just cannot comprehend how anyone with a conscience could do that to begin with.  SIK1, I'm glad Hope went to a good home and that pic while hurtful, still shows that she has some compassion.    

Excellent post/pictures people, please continue posting!


Ian's now 8 (our only child before I got the Vasectomy in July) and we had a Bluetick Coonhound Rescue dog for 5 months.   We had to return him.   We tried everything possible within reason, but if any Man came into the room, he'd cower and shiver or run into another room.   He loved Ian and the wife, but no matter how softly I spoke, he'd try to avoid me.   We'd leave for 30-45 minutes and crate him, he'd poop and pee every time.  

So now we're looking at a dog for him.   We dog sat for my wife's sister a couple of weeks ago and Ian loved palling around with the dog.   Running in the snow with him, feeding him and playing catch with him.   So it seems he's ready for the responsibility of his own dog.   We're considering a short hair, so maybe a Beagle, Yellow Lab.    We have a very large fenced in yard for the city so any dog will have fun.
