Josie, like me, is no doubt IRISH. I look the same way on St. Paddy's Day.      Mac.

And by the early morning hours or March 18th your nose is RED, I assume?

Only rats and the occasional achilles tendon need to worry!

A more worthless little mutt never existed but he's all I got!  If I water him some more, maybe he'll grow a pair!



Last night, I was playing with Harley and in the course of doing the "sit, speak, shake, roll over" commands, he just does all four now in succesion without being asked.  Not real bright but he knows how to get his treat...

I love all the dogs!

This is Belle...and she continues to promote the stereotype that Border Collies are among the smartest dogs in the world!

She works, cows, kids, and (as you can see) accompanies me fishing!

No pics because my POS camera quit on me. My dog is a half-Sheltie/half-??? and his head looks too small for his body. Instead of weighing 20 pounds like a Sheltie he weighs 55, but some of of that is tumors. My vet can't even figure out how much he should weigh. I'm his 6th(?) owner and he must be about 15 years old. He's my buddy and I love him, and my tumor dog loves me. When I take him to visit my mom he wants to stay there. Maybe she has more snacks than I do.    He can't jump into the truck or on the bed anymore, and has trouble going up stairs. He has less trouble going down stairs and if he slips he can body surf down to the living room. That scared the crap out of me when it happened but he got up and walked away. Not bad for being over 100 dog years old.

Last year, I posted my two babies, Torry and Cheyenne. JF's post reminded me of another - here's Crash - part Black Lab and part Dalmatian (all black with polka dotted toes).

Crash was adopted, I was her 3rd owner. City dog, should not have been She had been abused as a puppy, the assholes used something called dominance aggression on her. When I first got her from a friend, I went to pet her goodbye, and she opened my hand. Surprised her when I did not beat her, simply sent her to her bed while I took care of the bleeding.

She got to a point where I could pet her at any time, even when she was lying down. We used to play a game I called Cujo where I would pat her cheeks and she would bare her teeth growl a little and make like she was going to take my hand off - but never did. She gave soft, wet, slow "Crash" kisses.

She learned to chase bunnies on a ranch in Wyoming. Best part was when she buggered a nest and went in circles trying to figure out which one to chase - by which time all were gone.

She developed bad arthritis, skin tumors, etc. Still tried to keep up with the puppies when we went to the hills on the ranch, and I would have to send her home. Left the house doors unlocked, I knew she would destroy anyone who did not belong there.

She left us in July 2007, barely able to walk, falling down all of the time, incontinent, but still a sweet dog who enjoyed her life with me. I had the vet put her down. I would have done it, but she had so much violence in her life, I wanted her to leave quietly and peacefully, and she did, cradled in my arms.

I cried like a damn kid.

This is Crash near the end.

My little buddy is getting gray whiskers and so am I. When it happens to a dog you know their days are numbered but don't want them to ever leave you. When my boy passes on I know I'll cry more than when I watched my dad die. I won't be able to put him down either. The vet will have to do it. BTW his name is Tag. He's my dog Tag but he doesn't hang from my neck.

The bassetts (Daisy & Puppy) we've had a while, sweet old dogs. The coon dog (Charlie) is my son's and just came into the family last month.
