My husband leaves alot due to the Navy and sometimes he is gone for a long time.....so when Sadie see's a Jeep she thinks it is Dad.  Our neighbor has a parking spot next to Shannon and he owns a black Jeep just like my husbands, so I have to be super careful when he comes home or she will run up to the Jeep and wait for him to get out.  I have had many times when walking her had her do the same thing.  She loves her papa!

I have 3 dogs, 2 rottweilers and a husky.  roxie is the baby she is 10months, bambino is 2years and nalla is 7yrs. they all have there own personilty and they all make me laugh, the things they do, and when all three are together they are just crazy.  nalla is the leader, they all listen to her.  bambino is the only male so he really is the protecter of the other 2.  and roxie well shes just always in trouble by nalla cause she is the pup in training so nalla is always correcting her.  they are a trip!

Our youngest cat, Stanley, thinks he is a dog.Him and Little Man( our 7 lb chiuahuia) wrestle around, run all over the house and try to scavage table food together.It is so cute, the cat  will wait for the dog around the door, then jump on him and they play forever.

My dog is FUNNY! His name is Biskit and he sleeps on chairs and atop the sofa just like a cat would. Everytime my mother takes out the iron and ironing board, the dog has to sit underneath it. Who knows, maybe he likes the "steam".  lol

Snowbunny

We have a Rat Terrier too. Her name is "Little Debbie" (after the Little Debbie snack cakes). I love when we get a notice from the vet addressed to "Debbie Horgan"....LOL

Debbie is so in love with my husband. She follows him everywhere. she'll even sit outside the bathroom door to wait for "Daddy". She cries when she hears him pull into the driveway.

Does you Rat have a tail? Ours just has a little nub....we call her "Nubby". Never thought I'd see the day that my big, burly husband would be so attached to a little dog.

We have a Shepherd too. Debbie just rules the house- she doesn't realize (or care) that the other dog (Spike) outweighs her by 100+ lbs!

My Greyhound once drank a coke out of my husbands cup. He looked around at passersby and burped.

This happened a long time ago, when my little mixed breed Becca was about two years old.  My Dad and Step Mom came to visit and she put down her full wine glass, on the table in the living room.  She came back into the kitchen to help me with dinner.  I turned around and Becca......my little black dog about 22 lbs had some kind of terrier in her was staggering.  Now I didn't think anything of it right away because Becca sometimes got her feet tangled up until Lida came in with a puzzled look on her face and asked me if I had accidentally drunk most of her wine.  No I hadn't but Becca had.  She slept really, really well for about four hours.  I think she even was hung over.

I have a sweet boxer named Sadie. She follows me everywhere and I mean everywhere. If I move she moves. It is like I have 6 legs, even when I am cleaning.... She is very protective of me, especially around strange men, she doesn't like strangers, which makes me happy since my hubby is gone a lot. I had a wolf hybrid, name Sheeba when I lived back home in Texas. That pup had my heart. My husband use to take her up to the base with him when he worked nights because she was nocternal. We had a sky light in our living room and she would howl at the moon through it, that didn't work to well for me since I had to work the next morning. She out grew our boxer by the time she was 4 months, so we gave her to friend who had some land. She always had this "duh" look on her face.

aww my brother had a wolf hybrid named Bo - he was the sweetest thing ever.  He had a scary howl but he was a big baby around me and my kids when they were small.  He died a few years ago and broke everyone's heart. 

I have a little yorkie, TInk, and a pit bull, Lady. I know what you're thinking, a pit bull and a yorkie??? But Lady is the sweetest dog, and Tink is her baby, or so she thinks anyway!! They are so funny together, Lady is 13 now, and Tink is 4, and they play together and Lady is so gentle with Tink. Whenever someone comes over, they think it's to see them, not us, (and I wouldn't dare call them a dog in front of them, they would be very hurt by this since they think they are human,) and will sit there with us the whole time like they are in on the conversation. When the company leaves, they have to escort them to their car, then they come back on the porch and wait for them to drive off. They are a funny pair. I do worry though, because Lady is so old, how it will effect Tink when she passes, they are so close. Lady is showing signs of aging, and slowing down, but Tink keeps her young, so I guess I'll worry about it when the time comes, hopefully not very soon tho!! Our animals are part of our family, and are treated as so!! I love all animals, they are all so amusing and bring such joy and happiness to people.

<--------this is FRED.  I have no idea why my husband named a Siberian Husky after a bassett hound in the smokie and the bandit flicks.  He weighs 100# and loves to steal stuff.........especially my daughters 'sex and the city' shoes and gnaw on them.  I love seeing him with a 4" pump with leopard print.  I dont understand why he goes for the pumps.

We have a boxer who thinks he is a poodle.  If you are sitting in "his" spot on the couch he will climb in your lap-if you don't move then you end up scratching his head while watching tv, if you do move then he has the spot all to himself.  Either way he wins. 

My first Schnauzer out of college was awesome. She learned things so easily it was almost scary (as an adolescent, I never had a dog that would actually pay attention to me.) My friends said she understood English...I could ask her to 'talk' and she would, I could ask her to 'whisper'...yep, she'd do that too.  She hated baths but I could tellher to get in the tub and she would...Honest!

However, one day I thought that I would teach her to fetch. We went to the park, I threw one of her favorite toys, she ran to it, picked it up, looked at me and dropped it. The look on her face said it all,  'Are you kidding me? this is a dumb game, I have done everything you ask of me but I draw the line here!'

By the way she loved to play. One of her favorite games was hide and seek. On Saturdays, my boyfriend and I would take her to the park, I'd hold her (facing me..didn't want her to cheat) and my boyfriend would go hide. I'dtell her to go find him and she'd pretend to look around for about 30 seconds and then just run right to him.

Now that I think about it...the fact that this guy that looked like a linebacker and was hiding behind trees..is probably funnier (or sad ) than my dog pretending to look for him.  She is missed!

I have a dog that is just a plan old mute mis part hound dowg, pit, you name it. I don't know if any of you have ever seen the fainting goats but one day my husband and I went out to feed our dogs we have three Bart , Izzmorelda, Penlope. Don't ask bout the names the girls were orphan when their mother died in child birth we bottle feed Penny as we call her and Izzy had to be tube feed for Failure to thrive. But anyway back to the story at hand we went out to feed them and Bart was really excited for some reason or another that day he was jumping up and down and all of the sudden he just fell over, I thought he was dead my husband ran over to him.  He had just fainted. So now we call him our fainting dog. No reason why the vet can't explain it he just does it yes he old  14 yrs. our yrs. and yes he still does it. But the vet says hes in good health for his age so yes I have a fainting dog !!!!!lol

Yes, our full bread Shepherd male Max must have been a cat in his former life, he loves chasing the laser pointer he will chase it everywhere and up over ANYTHING in his way, my son shines it on his little brother and Max tries to chew the pointer light off. His daughter our new little Zowie seems to have inherited that gene, she too likes to chase the laser before she even saw us play with Max

My baby Souroney, a Shib Inu(from Japan) will chase anything.  She is so cute and loveable, but a little less brainy than my other Shiba Inu, Sheeba.  If you say give me a kiss, she will put her tongue out to lick you, and you close her lips and her tongue is sticking out.  It is so funny.  I haven't gotten a pic of it yet though.  Will someday.

Well my 2 yorkies are funny and smart.  Graham my male can spell.  He loves to go out and run in the yard and play.  So I would ask the last time he went out? He would know what I was talking about and start barking so I started spelling out and now he knows it as well.  He can also spell bed, treat, food, walk, and a few others.  I can't get nothing by him.  When he starts barking I will say shhh in side voice and he will woof with his mouth closed.  Honey my female thinks she is the baby(she is)  and everyone that comes by has to pick her up. If she thinks something is going on and no one is paying attention to her she will lay on her side and start moving all 4 feet like she's running.  All you have to do is say her name and she jumps up.  She has the cutest fits.   They are so funny.
