I know we've done the "other pets" subject to death, but I was just curious who else has a dog in addition to their cats. What kind of dog do you have? Does he or she have an interesting story?
I have Daisy, a black lab, who I got from the city pound when she was 8 months old. She was registered with the AKC, spayed, and current on shots. I have no idea why she was given to the pound, but it was my lucky day when I found her. I just happened to be there, not interested in any more pets, but I HAD to have her when I saw her. I've had her for a year and a half now, and she's just the best dog. She's great with my kids and with the neighbors kids, but she has snapped at strange children before, so I try to keep her away from other children when possible. She is an "outside" dog, but not by my choise. Hubby thinks our house is too small for 4 people, 2 cats, and a large dog. But he doesn't have a problem with Daisy being inside when he's gone, and he's gone alot!
Here's a picture of Daisy and the kids about a year ago. (Boy do I need to get a scanner!)
