PUPPIES!!

[zombiehorror]

Been something missing in the house ever since we lost our last Chow, Tygur but with the girls being so young we were holding off on getting another dog.  Just recently we had a chance to get a Bloodhound pup but she was eventually picked up by her owner....well as luck would have it, a pregnant dog, Hannah, was rescued from the side of the road and left with http://www.allpawsrescue.info/~



Several weeks after her rescue she had 13 puppies~


..........well when you get the chance to pick from 13 puppies you just gotta take the plunge!

This is Maverick but I think once he's ours we're looking at naming him, either Goliath or Boris~


And this is Olive which may remain her name~


We won't be getting them until after Christmas, the boy next week and the girl in about 2 weeks since they are at different foster homes and neutering/spay is being done at different vets.  It's gonna be comforting to have some 4 legged friends running around again...along with our 2 legged ones...LOL!

Just knowing before Christmas that puppies will coming into the home soon is enough to light up the household.  The best thing about puppies is that the meat is so much more tender than that of older dogs.  (Just kidding)  I, myself, an the alpha male pack leader of 2 dogs, Shadow & Scruffy.


They're vicious I tell ya...yeah, right.

Oh how wonderful!  What a nice Christmas present!

They are so cute!  Your Cujo's are adorable too, Monsterphile!

I'm so happy for your soon to be new addition to your family ZH!  What a sweet thing to do for these loving creatures.     I've never known the love or loyalty of a dog. We have somehow been a "cat family" for 31 years! Someday I hope to get a doggie, probably an older one, but for now I live with the indifference of my BFF, the cat!  He's my BFF but I probably am not as important to him as food, cat toys, blankets, sunny spots, etc.  I rank about 28th.  Hope you post more pictures when you get your new furry friend !

Charpie, how about posting a picture of you cat?  I'd love to see it.

  Congratulations on the new canine additions zombiehorror, cute as hell.  Besides being loads of fun and love, pets are theraputic and good for your health.  Me, I gotz three cats.

And monsterphile, be careful those visious beauties don't rip your hand off at feeding time.

Great pics.  They are too cute.

Here's what my dog looks like...  He might be a zombie.

Oops!  I didn't realize it was that big (actual size of cat)~   That's Caddie (full name- Mad Caddie) wearing a digitally added Santa hat. We have tried putting a real hat on him for 10 years running, but he bites our wrists........so we added one on the computer. He is the Renfield of cats. We got him at a shelter 10 years ago, and treat him like a king!  but he still bites us.......oh well- such is life!

We had to have our 12 year old shepard mix Baby put to sleep today. She had gone senile and was going down hill fast. We wanted to wait until after the holidays, but it would just not have been fair for her. We have had her since she was 4 months old, and we will miss her badly.


We have 3 other dogs-a 10 year old Pharoah Hound mix that came from the streets of Cairo Egypt named Otis


Angel, an 8 month old pit bull my youngest son adopted who is just the sweetest goofiest dog.


and Razzleberry a 15 week old terrier/mini collie mix that I adopted a few weeks ago


Alomg with our own dogs, we are currently fostering 14 puppies for the rescue group we work with as well as several cats as well!

Oh RedKing-I am so sorry for your loss. I have been in that situation a few times when I hated being the decision-making human.  I understand how you feel, and I know you did the right thing. We are the caretakers of these beautiful creatures and are lucky to know each one of them.     Just know that there are more furry friends in your future and that they are all fortunate to have you as part of their family too.

Many of us have been down this unfortunate road with our pets. We had to do the same with our dog, Cosmo last Spring. Why is it they never simply pass away in their sleep, leaving us to have to make these life or death decisions? Sorry for your loss, but it looks like you have your hands full with your other pooches! 

[RedKing]

Thanks for the condolences guys, I appreciate it a lot.

RedKing, I know how tough that decision is.........but what a beautiful life you gave Baby!! Who knows how she may have been mistreated or neglected without your care?? You sent her off on the next leg of her journey loved, nurtured, and happy. That's something to be treasured even in the midst of your loss.
