Here are all of my furry monkeys:

 

[The Tig]

We adopted a very sweet 1 year old Plott Hound from a city shelter Saturday and couldn't be happier.
Meet "Molly".

[Gingerninja]

Hi Molly! Welcome to your Furever Home. @The Tig

[oboogie]

When we saw her photos online (the 3 I posted), she reminded us of our Black Mouth Cur, "Ziggy". You can see her sweetness and intelligence. When we saw her in her pin, she was ferocious, barking a mean bark and a bit scary. We checked out a few other dogs but came back to her and asked the guy to see her outside, just to be sure. She lit up and became really sweet as soon as she was leashed. Outside, she ran and bounded, all happy like, then came up and snuggled with me. Bam! Instant bond.

 

Many dogs in shelters show their true selves once outside and free.

Wow, what a cool dog! Giant Schnauzers are incredible dogs. They adjust their temperament to different people and situations better than any breed I've ever encountered.

Its so true, he is so gentle with elderly people (my grandma etc) but whenever i see him he just wants to play fight!

Our tug of war record is 16 minutes! just for the record, i won in the end.

Molly looks to be a super happy dog! How have the first couple of days been?

 

Heres another one from the day she picked him up:

My family adopted a beagle named Buddy a few years ago. He's a lazy old man, but he guards the house ferociously from mailmen, UPS delivery men, and the like. The first picture is him at his guard post, the back of the couch. From which, he keeps watch over the neighborhood. The second picture is a rare (ahem) nap break.

Such beautiful dogs here! I always love to see pictures of them. Keep them coming!

Lynn took this picture of me sleeping a few nights ago. Her side of the bed - empty. My side - me crammed in with our two Labs.

Yellow Lab.....black shirt. Need I say more?

[Tiresius]

I have a caramel-coloured boerbull and I'v kind of given up on my black canvas sneakers...

[Devious6]

Someone on my Instagram/FB page commented that it looks like I'm shedding.  I guess it does look like I'm just trying to blame Sunny.

[Tiresius]

I shed plenty as my hair is long - but it's also black and so my shedding can be easily distinguished from that of Rufous!

[oboogie]

Brontë is hilarious. She smiles like this for photos. Goof.

Rocky, our daughter's dog, was attacked by a pack this morning and we had to take him in for emergency suturing and a drainage tube. We can bring him home this evening. I suspect the pack is actually a bunch of dogs that hick neighbors just leave running free and feed about once a week. One of my tattoos is a heart like the one on Rocky's ear.

:(  poor baby, best wishes for a speedy recovery for him.

[oboogie]

I am so sorry. Hope he's on the mend very soon. :-(

[Devious6]

Sending good thoughts for Rocky!!!

[pidjones]

Thanks, all! He is home now and still sleeping off the sedation (and snoring). After carrying him four times today, I realize that I really need to work on strength training! (58 lbs). He's sutured and bandaged and as soon as the sedative wears off must wear the "cone of shame" for 10 - 14 days. Several fairly big wounds were cleaned an left open. Also has two drains that have to come out Saturday.
