Bitty bum. she was only 8 when she passed from a super quick forming brain tumor (4 months before Rocky passed) best staffy the wife and I had ever seen/had. Her and Rocky were inseparable. I just hope they are back together.
My Lilly. She's my old girl. 13 almost 14 and still kicking like she's a pup....when she's not napping.
German Shepard mix. No idea what else is in there. Picking him up from a rescue in the area.
Shiloh has decided that one of her new best friends is the County Dog catcher.
Bill tends to get his morning coffee at the same time and place as Shiloh and I do. The first time they met, I think Bill was taking a friendly approach to making sure Shiloh's license was in order. (Not a problem. License is fine.) The two quickly became best buddies. Now she greets him with a hug and an invitation to play.
On a more practical note; Bill has promised me that if Shiloh ever gets out and gets picked up, she'll never see the inside of the shelter. He'll deliver her straight to my home.

Damn, that’s a lot of persuasion to walk quickly past your yard. Especially that monster in the middle.
Great looking pack of pups!!
Thank you! We have an escaped prisoner in the area too…. Fucker has been out for a few days and they can’t get ‘em. Too bad we don’t have wanted dead or alive as the 10K reward would be honored a bit quicker, I think.
Since the passing of our 2 dogs, I'm in no hurry for another dog but my wife is 100% going for another staffy.
I know ill get another dog but may be alittle while. for now though when i think about it, im torn between a boxer or rotty. Never had 1 but like both breeds. I'd prefer a more laid back dog that wouldn't mind going out every now and again. I know boxers are just balls of energy for 99% of their life.

My Kimber will be 12 in November, but her cancer is back again. We drugged her up last week for dove opener and she did great. The last picture is her relaxing by one of my boys after her bath. She is the best dog I have had. My wife doesn't want another one and that makes this harder.

Start a petition for us to sign for your wife to allow another dog. Lay it on thick.
Dogs are amazing.
This is the Bailey monster. She is by far the best friend I have ever had. She is currently battling anal sac adenocarcinoma. Vets refer to it as agasaca for short. It’s an extremely aggressive cancer that spreads sooo rapidly. We have gone through 2 surgeries and chemo. She is such a trooper! She is still with us living her happy Boxer life to the fullest. We decided to fight it as hard as we could since she was only 4 when she was diagnosed. She just had her 6th birthday a few weeks ago! I highly recommend pet insurance to everyone I know. It saved her life! I don’t know what I would do without her… There is a purity that you get out of a relationship with a dog that is impossible to get out of another human being.

Sammy. Even at 6 she still looks like a puppy. Her father was my buddy’s bird dog but we lost him over the summer. Now she walks with us through the corn where her dad used to.
You can just hear the commotion when you try and walk through the door.
And the 3 morons start banging into eachother and everything else
Thor at about 4 months old, and Pebbles, the only female we've had.
She went blind and became diabetic at 5 years old, the 2 things were unrelated.
She made it to 10 when we think she had a stroke, and died in my wife's arms on the way to the emergency vet.

Boxers are the best IMO. Best wishes for Bailey and everyone. I've had 2 boxers, best friends for life.
Boxers are soo awesome!
Thank you for the well wishes. I will give her some treats when I get home and tell her that they are from you haha!
Drawing a blank on what to name this fella... He's a shepard/chow mix we picked up this morning. I can't keep the name "Corky" that the rescue has been calling him. Any suggestions guys?
First thought is Sochi. Thought of cause of his mix.
Someone found a stick and got it embedded causing an infection.
After getting snipped, Thor wouldn't leave his nutsack alone.
He didn't move a muscle for 2 hours after we put the lampshade on!!
And he destroyed 3 of them.
Been calling him "Sochi" for the past few hours. That's the name. He's a really mellow boy. My 3 year olds are of course no help.
Currently 4 months old. We spent the afternoon off leash and he came every time I called him in when he got too close to the fields or woods..
He does get drawn to the back of the wood pile though.

I grew up with Dobermans the first 24 years of my life. Had several as a kid and I still love that breed. Had a female named Simba I bought when I was 12 with my first summer job money, she was incredible. Switched to German shorthair pointers at 26 and never looked back but I do think dobies are a hell of a breed. Good looking pooches.
