dog
It's no coincidence that a dog is a man's best friend; they're more faithful than most other animals, and more faithful than many people.
Inspired by My Best Friend
My stepdad brought Rocky home from work when he and some co-workers spotted him and the rest of his litter running around on the streets of West Baltimore. When he walked through the door with Rocky, my sister and I were started crying like normal eight and 10-year-olds do. Once his paws touched the floor, he ran to me and we became best friends ever since.

How My Dog Saved My Life
This is only a short story, but I have to tell it. This is Gypsy and she saved my life. For the past 10 years or so I’ve been fighting a battle with depression, and I even attempted to take my own life a few times, I felt like everything was getting too much and only I was to blame for that. With my brother in prison and my sister in a mental health institute, life became too much for me to handle.

Spike, Pongo, Sadie, and Allie
I had four dogs. One of them isn't pictured here. Her name is Dollie.Four beautiful lovely dogs. All with souls and were the best dogs we've ever had. Our beautiful dogs were taken from us way too early. Spike was a Black Labrador. The youngest member of our family. He had the most soulful eyes. He was a silly goofy boy! He was the biggest baby though. He loved going outside, playing tug of war, running around the yard with his rawhide bones and burying them so no one else could get them, barking at squirrels, birds, rabbits, and anyone who came up our driveway. He talked, smiled the biggest smile he could give when got into trouble. It was so funny and you couldn't help but laugh. He was a sweet heart. My late father coaxed him with dog treats and took him home. First, we thought it was Dollie, but Dollie didn't look like this big goofy puppy.

Goodbye Shiloh
I came home from school in a bad mood. I saw your leash outside and as I entered I yelled, "Why is there a leash outside?" Little did I know my life was about to get so much happier. I walked into the living room and saw a dog there. I said what's her name? My mom replied Shiloh (like the movie). Over the next little while, I taught her how to pee outside, how to sit, give paw, lay, and speak for a treat. I couldn't wait to get home from school anymore to see my little puppy. She was an excellent dog.

The Cons About Living with Multiple Dogs
Don't get me wrong, I adore having a large pack! I wouldn't have it any other way and life with just one dog wouldn't cut it for me, but there are things I miss about having just Winry, the first of the pack, and things that are very frustrating about having more than one. Even more so than the obvious and first on the list, which is money. If one dog costs a certain amount, you can bet that a second dog will most likely double that! Now, over the years and with many foster dogs coming and going, I have plenty of supplies to where I can bring home a new dog or puppy and not spend a cent on things like bowls, collars, leashes, toys, etc; however, they still raise your cost in total with eating extra food and the big whammy—vet bills. Don't let that deter you, though! Having a second, third, fourth, fifth, or sixth dog is very rewarding and worth it in every way, but that isn't what this post is about, is it?

Tips for Frenchie Owners
I grew up with a border collie and a Labrador. They were my best friends from the day I was born until my border collie Jessie died when I was 8. It was tough losing my first furry friend Shelly, but when Jessie died it was a very quiet household.
