As we get older.. the more time we spend sleeping on the couch. I have learned the art of selective hearing... Doesn't help that I am the only male in the family.
Does this seem right to you?

My sweet girl was an American Staffordshire Terrier, looks like a pit bull but with a longer snout, looked like a beast but was a total sweetheart.
Those were actually in the "marketing to kids" presentation yesterday...
I'm sorry for your loss bud, they really are sweet dogs when raised the right way. Sounds like Marley looks very similar to what yours did and shares the same disposition.
just a little aside, I have one child, that's the plan, because I think more is irresponsible.
I had a dog that we rescued, had to let her go up to doggy heaven last Tuesday. We definitely plan to rescue another one, but are waiting until after a trip we have planned for our daughter's birthday.
The world would be a much better place if everyone thought about their reproductive responsibilities.
We have 2 rescue beagles and an orphaned cat and 2 teenagers, who at times can be sweet like the dogs and cat.
One was found in a dumpster chowing down on spaghetti. The other well, some decided a shot gun would put her out of her misery. Luckily she is our joy now. Recently she helped herself to some chocolate bars, wrappers as well. We called the vet at 8pm. She met us at her clinic and stayed the night with her. I believe it was around 2 in the morning we had a call from the vet who was crying. This is not our normal vet. She asked what had happened to her because her thigh bone still had the shotgun shrapnel in it. So we had to explain.
2 rescue dogs of death row.. both have been a joy to our family and kids. I still remember the day my eldest came home with hers.. Wide eye smile and at the end of the leash was this splotchy haired mangy dog. Unfortunately she has a blood clot and may not make it through the year and may be visiting yours in doggie heaven.
Thanks, yeah, as with many things in life, it's not always about appearances. She had the jaw strength to crush a small skull, but never even nipped at a person.
Marley lives with a 10 lb. MinPinscher and they have got into some scuffles over dropped food here and there, while she could probably crush him with one bite she's never hurt him. I think it scares me more than either one of them to tell the truth.
I wish you the best of luck for the pup, sounds like she may have some really good luck on her side already!
quit chatting so much. i'm never going to have a chance at a prize at this rate. there's only like a million of them, sheesh.
You know the contest is over right? They'r picking runners up from the others that were posting at the time.
That's funny my MinPin's name is Buster and I frequently call him SuperB. Of course all my pets through my life have had so many names given to them it's amazing they look at you at all when you say their "original" name.
pffft!!! who cares about him? that's not doing me any good!
no, seriously, i'm just happy to see people winning something. congrats are certainly in order. my one hope is that someone (or many) who is in need is a winner.
whatever you do, don't highlight this post. there's nothing to see here. i swear.
My current dog is named Sierra.That's funny my MinPin's name is Buster and I frequently call him SuperB. Of course all my pets through my life have had so many names given to them it's amazing they look at you at all when you say their "original" name.

My last dog was named Peanut.
She also went by Potato Head, Stinker ...., and You Big Crazy Nut.

First runner up was a sub contest, of people who guessed the time of the 15M post, I didn't know about that one. I think the rest are being chosen by algorithm based on posting around the time of the winning post, not positive on that though.
Tulie(my amstaff) was originally Tulip, but also responded to Bug.
She also ate a plate of chocolate chip cookies from on top of the kitchen counter, without disturbing the plate, the first christmas we had her.
I haven't had Marley long enough to give her multiple names but her one so far is Marleeeeeeey Jenkins!!!!! (said like that) If you've ever played World of Warcraft you probably know if not and are bored google Leeroy Jenkins.
So sorry to hear about your loss Lessifer. Really struck me hard because I lost one of my babies last Tuesday as well. A miniature dachshund - 9-1/2 yrs old, Otis (affectionately called "Mosey" or "MoMo" but he answered to Otis just as well) had been sick a while, and finally we just had to take away his pain and misery.

Thanks Katt! Yeah, Tulie was 14, on the older side for her breed and the past few months had been tough, and the few days before were really tough and she finally let us know it was time. My condolences on your loss as well.
