16. cooper was
a dobie shepherd mix and the smartest dog i've ever known. we used to say 'if he had thumbs, he'd be dangerous!'

he sure had us trained:)

grabbed his leash for walks, nudged us for hugs, pets and loves...

i need another dog! i think we are much better people when we experience that kind of unconditional love.

18. "Lady" is Looking
She is my Australian Shepherd foster dog. She is very loving, but VERY shy due to an abusive background. She is about four years now, and is a very dear girl. If you'd like, I can privately send you some more information. :) Best, Ida

19. Cooper is the spitting image of my Dobe-Shep mix
Absolutely the most wonderful dog ever.

Bladder cancer got her. I'll never again use a chemical service for my lawn.

20. cooper
started having seizures several years ago. i couldn't afford five grand for a catscan, so we medicated him and took our chances. he ended up having a growth in his brain. it grew large and cut off his airway, that's how we found out. cost me a thousand bucks to find out and have him put down. i hate this!

4. "My Little Margie"
It was an old sitcom.
She looks like a Marge. Good name.
What a cutie.

7. Strangely enough, we named her before we got her
Wife grew up with beagles, so once we were buying a house, had to get a beagle. We're both Simpsons fans, so had to name her Marge.

9. Marge loves all dogs
so I'm sure she'd love Spud Buddy! I think she's a virgin, though.

14. I showed Marge to my yorkie, Winston, and he barked his
approval. What a great photo and she does look like a female, very proper and regal, yet soft. Dogs are great, not to start a war with cat lovers, but dogs know how to love. That's all they are - furry little beings with tons of love.

15. My 5 year old Toro would be a great "older man" for her!
Although he's a Chihuahua (with that terrier streak) and neutered,
he'd charm her I'm sure.

Tico, chihuahua rescue and Slicker, min pin rescued from the street, would also love her, but they may be a bit too young for Marge....she sure is lovely, maybe she would consider them?
