    I am sorry about your pack, It does seem to come in groups! I lost 2 chickens and a cat in the hurricanes. Chickens get scared and die very easliy. We put 4 of them in the garage when the roof of their coop blew off, but the damage was done. The cat went who knows where! I couldn't get him in the house and figured he went to hide, he never came back. We checked the shelter and put up posters but there were a lot of lost animals and no ever replied.
    My dog is the offical door man for the cats, she comes to get me when they are at the door to come in and comes to get me when they want out. They go to her, not us, even though I have explained to them a million times that Sheba doesn't have opposable thumbs!

    Default My Dog Benson

    This is my dog Benson. I have Crohns Disease, and when I'm in pain it seems like he knows and will curl up on my stomach. I would definitely say pets are good for your health, and in my situation he for sure makes a huge difference.

    My big Rottie baby is most important to my health esp. mental. He's so sympathetic and loving, he never asks what's wrong just cuddles up beside me or lays his enormous head in my lap. He makes a great heating pad too.

    My mom has crohns too, our dogs growing up could always put a smile on her face even in the worst of times, now she has a little ****zhu and he's just the light of her eye.

    LMAO it automatically added those asterix I didn't do it.

    Is Benson a c0ckapoo? He looks like my parent's dog, right to the brownish color on the ears. What a cutie!

    Sigh, I wish they could take my blood pressure at the dr. office right after I pet my baby. I posted pics in the women's room, might as well post some here as well. She's the love of my life and the reason I get out of the house and get some exercise (which does wonders for my work stress!). Here's my baby:

    Her first day home just over 3 years ago:


    Her first 'good' summer haircut:


    Oh boy, I got a bone!

    I do love rotties, you have such a handsome boy. My girl loves to play with the big, powerfull breeds at the dog park. We've looked at a couple rotties at the shelter. We're still waiting to find a senior male dog one with the right chemistry for her (and cute factor for us).
