    Well, Alty, I think you have a beautiful family. And my guess is that it isn't lacking in any way.

    But now I'm going to play really dirty: Isn't there a cat in a steel cage that needs a home? That needs to be part of a family and loved and treated better than many adopted cats end up being treated? Would a bif thumping kitty heart add something to the love that already binds your family together?

    I could go on, but now I really am starting to feel like a jerk. I'll stop pushing. But if you do decide to look into Maine Coons let me know. I've been living with one for a little over eight years, so I can offer a little insight.

    Okay, one last try: Pleeeaaase!

    I'm good. It's out of my system.

    Oy, I feel guilt, going to go to shelter, feeling guilt. Bad Akoue, bad boy.

    YBABBNGTMR! :)

    Got to run kids.

    Later.

    What lovely babies! The black and white dog in the first pic look like one of my aunts recently departed dogs, and could Chewy be any cuter? We nearly had a heart attack today when a beagle following its nose, oblivious to anything but whatever smell it was after tracked right across a busy highway, we were able to slow down enough to miss it thankfully, and I really hope it didn't go back on the road. That wasn't a spot where you could stop and turn around, and it had a collar so it couldn't have been far from home.

    Poor little guy. I hope he/she made it home safe and sound.

    I still don't see how Snoopy from the Peanuts is a beagle. Kind of off topic, but then again this thread hasn't been on topic for what, 10-15 pages?

Don't see them much around here.

    Sorry, I didn't back on yesterday. Yeah I am so afraid when we take Marley for a walk because we live by big dogs. I am overprotective of him... my fiancé hates it, but he is so tiny that he is like a treat to them.

    Its better to be safe then sorry! When my husband was working on one ladies air conditioner she told him about her chi's near death experience. She was walking her dog when a hawk swooped down and snatched him up. Then began the struggle because the dog was leashed. The lady held on with all of her worth until the large bird gave up on its prize. Even still the chi had to be rushed to the vet for serious wounds from those talons. The dog survived, but only because it was on a leash.

    Now don't get me wrong, danger isn't at every turn. If you get yourself too tense your dog will pick up on it and he too will get tense. The best thing to do is just be wary of your surrounding without freaking the little guy out. If you live in a more urbanized area then it is much less likely for a bird of prey to eye your pup.

    I know. We live in an area that was just built. We have our townhome section, family home second, and condo section. We are right next to cornfields and everything else!!

    Well guys, I have terrible news. :( Remember that beagle we saw sniffing across the road a short while back? I had been keeping an eye out for him since then, but I hadn't seen him-until today. He was hit and killed right by where I saw him last. It makes me so sad and furious, at his owners for consistently letting their dog get out near a busy highway, at myself even. Maybe if I had done something more the last time I saw him. I just don't know. He didn't deserve that. No dog does.

    Awwww, that's so sad! I wonder who these moronic owners were? They had to have known that the dog would get hit sooner or later. Poor little guy. :(

    I would also like to add, as stated over 200 posts ago, that it is NEVER a good idea to get a puppy as a gift!

    That's okay. It was just that within minutes, I saw two people do the same thing. Don't worry. Guess I lost my temper a little. :)
