It's a dog day afternoon (gratuitous puppy pics)
Seriously, I learn a lot of life's lessons from my dogs, like life's too short not to laugh. Don't sweat the small stuff. Life is good when your belly is full.

Arrr, what cuties. Now, your doggie post got my attention. I lost my boy 2 years ago and now Im ready for 2 new boys. Im looking but not sure what breed to get.
Need advice, Plenty of room to run around, would catch a mouse or two if needed and loves cuddles. Oh, wants to be an inside, outside doggy.
Someone told me about 2 black labradors for sale, someone mentioned an Snauzer or terriers.
Ive been to the dog pound several times and 90% are bull terrier X which worries me - why are so many people giving them away.

Oh, to be a dog....whether it's my boy, Brownie, Miss Kenna or the other adorable furry children that we all love very much!! What a wonderful thread-it should be entitled "Dog Therapy 101."

(((DeVon))) my cat, Patches, has taken over my driveway...like I have to park in the front yard, rather than get out of the car, pick her up and move her so I can park.
When I call her various names (attic cat, as I fell through the attic trying to get her down..she got herself down, and I looked like I'd been beat up), the driveway cat, when I call her "pretty girl", she does the flop-drop-and-roll and exposes her belly for scratches.
The lone dog, no matter what time I get home (even if it's 3a.m. from work), comes running to greet me, waiting for treats.
I honestly don't know what I'd do without my furbabies. I may be an "old cat lady" but that's just fine with me
Hugs and prayers,
Amy

I've been without a dog for about 40 years, and never had a full time inside dog. I finally gave in to my daughter's pleading and let her get a Miniature Pinscher. I was skeptical at first, but the dog owns me now.
Quite often, he can be found lying in my lap in that same position.

What a lift and a laugh these photos are - yes, dog therapy, pet therapy.
I always enjoy the sig line pics of the 5 dogs of Freedom1990 and Impurrfect's cats.
The pictures on this thread are just hilarious.
Justjo I noticed you are in Australia, I was going to mention a shelter/rescue website called PetFinder that you put in what you are wanting and your location - not sure if that is in your area. There might be breed specific rescue groups in your area also.
Terriers - do research, ask questions, and remember there is a whole realm of characteristics with terriers. Bull terriers are different then a yorkie terrier.
If you feel uncomfortable then don't go through with an adoption. Labradors if younger, have lots of energy and require a lot of walking and room.
There are combinations to get such as a Shnauzer (very dignified dogs) and a terrier mix.
If you go the breeder route do some work also. Check with the breeder and get details of the situation. Make sure it is a reputable breeder. Maybe friends have a suggestion of a good breeder.
You are in for a fun search getting new additions to your home!

Great Thread! What cute dogs
We have a new addition to our family as of July 3rd. Lizzy our new dog. My 10yo son is ready to die of happiness that we finally have a dog. We've been saving/planning/searching for about a year!!! She is a lab/border collie mix. Super lovable girl. I don't have a picture yet soon.
