This is my dog, Lily:



She's awesome. She doesn't make noise by barking for no reason, and doesn't claw this shit out of my furniture. She loves to play one-way fetch, and has no problem taking out several toys at once and never putting them back where she found them.



I got her as a rescue dog...or so I was told. She had burn marks from cigarettes and even has a tattoo near her crotch. Her previous owners were probably hispanic. What assholes. Either way, she's incredibly friendly to everyone, except black people and hispanics. I took her on a walk one time and walked near a black kid. He was very cautious as he passed us. I said, "Don't worry; she only eats white kids."

My dog is fearless. And by fearless I mean she's afraid of virtually everything: water, loud noises, my neon Nintendo sign that hangs above my sofa, cats, paper towel rolls, large boxes, etc.



When she's around other dogs, she usually tries to get them to chase her. She likes being a bitch, I guess. Oh well. If she's tired, she'll lay wherever she likes. My mom's dog tries to be the dominant one--the alpha dog--and usually tries to stand on top of Lily while she's resting. But then she pushes her luck by antagonizing her. Once she pisses off Lily enough, Lily springs up, bites my mom's dog in the neck, and pins her into submission. Good dog!



I had cats in the past. They sucked. All they did was pee on my bed and annoy me. My ex said that it's normal to do that. I made her sleep on the side of the bed with pee.

Post stuff about your dog(s) on this thread. Cat lovers can go have sex with their cats, for all I care; just stay away from here. We don't want to hear your self-righteous crap about how cats rule because we all know that they don't. Cats are about as useful as a speedbump, except it would be a helluva lot more fun to run over a cat.

This is my dog, Jasper:



Jasper is a purebred Siberian Husky that I adopted / rescued in July 2007. He's awesome. He makes a shit ton of noise for all day long because all he wants to do is play with something / someone. He has no idea what fetch is but he's getting pretty good at catching a tennis ball then tearing the shit out of it. He takes out twenty toys at a time and then proceeds to impale each one making my family room look like a war zone.



You also hear stories about how these winter bred long haired dogs shed their fur. Shedding is NOT a proper description for what this dog does, I can comb him down and take off a pillowcase worth of fur and the next day it will have all grown back. He's a monster but he's so incredibly cuddly so it totally makes it worth the extra effort.







His eyes will make any commoner melt in place and give into his wishes. I have learned not to give a shit and can see through any scam he's trying to run. The little shit is smarter than you would think and he'll do anything to get a treat or toy when you're not looking.

Dogs are awesome, especially the fluffy ones.

I don't know much about peeing on beds, but I'm pretty sure that's not normal and your ex was wrong. Anyway, carry on! I don't have a dog yet. Maybe next year, if one of the cats die (I can only hope).

The cat peed on the bed because my ex was too lazy to clean the litter box more than once a week.

Teague, love your dog! Jasper has awesome coloring. Jacqui and I are going to be getting a dog very soon as well. First i need to set up my new fence in the backyard, but once thats done its on. After that, we will most likely be getting a Siberian Husky as well. We were also thinking about a Husky/Wolf hybrid, but not sure right now. Cant wait till we get our dog. :)

dachschund ... i don't need to say anything more

I rescued 1 dog. I don't think I will do that again. I had my dog, and decided to rescue a dog, the dog I rescued would actually attack my dog on its blind side (started losing vision in one eye). My step mom got the rescued dog in the end.

Awesome! Let me know when you get your dog and if you want I can give you a few pointers depending on its age. I brought Jasper home at 13 weeks and he's just a little older than 2.5 yrs. It's the best stress test for a relationship though, in reality it's not much different than raising a kid sometimes.

definitely would love some pointers on them. been reading up a lot of articles about them/care/etc. we have also been thinking about possibly adopting an older one as well. of course we have 2 cats, so that kind of limits the adoption process, as they would have to be ok with cats, and not all are. most likely have to go with a pup so they can be raised with them and such.

Our place will definitely become a zoo next year, with zuc moving in and all. lets see, so far 4 fish tanks, hoping to make it 5 next year, 2 cats, new dog, and then zuc's dog. think we might have to charge admission fees.....

I plan on getting a cat and dog when I move into my own place. Velicos, your god, Jasper, if friggin cute. You need to strut that thing out in the park. Bitches love dogs.

My Husky doesn't have an issue with cats even though his prey drive is pretty high. I think that's due to him being a puppy and being raised around cats, yet getting a scolding or two (or three hundred) when he went to mess with the them. [Zuc I'm with you, I can't stand cats.]

Madhatter - When Jasper was still well within his puppy stage I ran experiments at the dog park. I would tell my girlfriend that at least two or more attractive girls would come up to Jasper and immediately fall in love. I'd walk in alone and EVERY DAMN TIME my predictions were right on...

tl:dr?

Bring an extremely cute and cuddly puppy to the dog park and those mysterious females you all dream about physically appear.

PS - Nothing is free, so keeping the cute and cuddly puppy is a life sentence to raising one of the most difficult and demanding breeds that ever existed. There's always a price to pay....

[Zuccolo]

The two breeds I've always wanted to have sometime are dobermans and pitbulls.

Rottweilers are cool, but I hear they usually have bad hips, which is a shame.

[sizors]

yea dogs always attract the chicks.

Update: picked up Scout on Dec 27th. we have had him a few days now and he is an amazing dog. very well behaved. he needs to learn some basic commands, but thats about it. he gets along great with our 2 cats.

here are some pics
