I never grew up with dogs. When my wife and I got married, we had two non-negotiables: she gets a dog and I get a boat. Well, we have two dogs and no boat lol (yet). Since we’ve added kids to the mix, my wife’s view of the dogs has dwindled, but I’ll be damned those two dogs are my pals. I wouldn’t get rid of them if you paid me too and on those tough days, they always give me a reason to smile. We don’t deserve dogs.

I grew up on a farm and dogs weren't considered what they are by some but we enjoyed them and brought a lot of happiness. We lost our dog not long ago at 8, heart attack in front of my boy but the older girls were very close. For kids who don't have other loses in life it's good to experience loss. Reminds you of how fast life can end. This lesson goes a lot deeper for me from having 2 dogs die in front of me one in my arms as a boy. But I thank dogs for that lesson in life. We got a new pup now and she is great.

Just get it used to the word MOM.
Our pack loves mom. They only associate with me when mom isn’t home.
Trust me, it’s totally true. 😁

I’ve got one of my funniest and dumbest dogs these days. Got home from the river last week, let her out to take a leak, she yanked the skunk out of the bushes and got hit twice. She still stinks!!!!

that happened with a pup of mine. It turned into quite an ordeal that included a work training session as well as a phone call from my sons school. Lol

only way we got rid of the smell was with tomato juice baths.

quite funny thinking back to that incident.

We did the tomato wash and it helped, but she still stinks a bit. That deep Malamute/Husky fur may extend the misery.

Played the clip and my herd went nutz!!

Came close to losing Baby Grace, yesterday, lower left. Good call to observe her in distress before Lake trip this weekend.
She would've died without immediate care. On the mend now, Jailbreak first thing this morning. We call that a clue.

Credit for the save goes to.
Small Animal Emergency Clinic of Lubbock. Janey Powe, Veterinarian. And Crew. Follow up with my Vet on Tuesday.

Thanking God again this morning for my Posse of Furrys. That I do not deserve.
Top. Darlin. n Dody, not shown. Big Boxer mix Rescues. Think she looks happy? Dody is ×100 more grateful.

Gizmo, the 3 legged Pomeranian wonder dog. Broke his leg as a pup. Hard to pin those little Dogs.
Girl Poms are mean, he was observed, and thought not to be able to get the job done. Jury's still out on that. Life always finds a way.
Gday!

Yup! Penny is 2 now and at least she does her business outside. And being a Bassett hound she sleeps 90% of the time. But when we got her at 9 weeks old... Holy shit! She put us through the rings

Sitting here getting ready to go to work and don’t dare want to watch that video. Been taking lots of pictures and videos of my old yellow lab, I fear this may be his last summer, but at least he still happy when he’s out on the lake.
