Here is Meg, my groundhog kill'in machine. This was our last attempt at GH extermination. I was tearing down an old shed that recently had some groundhog activity going on under it. I decided to cut a hole in the floor to get a better look at his tunnel and Meg was there hoping he made an appearance. I may have buried this one alive with the hose though. We never did see him and all activity ceased after the flood.

Two cats. The big boy is Batman (7 years). The padded benches that the remotes were on ended up being his favorite perch one day and wen ended up snapping the picture.

He shares the house with Sammy the now 16 year old female cat that we had for a couple of years before we adopted him. They both enjoyed lounging in on the floor front of the insert in the old house.

That's a funny shot. He's got a look like, "Try to change that channel and your face is shredded wheat." :)

Here are some pics of our sorely missed pal, Rudy. This pic was one month before he passed.
And our new Black Lab Nellie, she is a pistol!

Sadly, I had to put my little English Setter down last month. We're still recovering from it.


Here's a few shots of her anyway.


This is Keisha with my cat Cody. As Cody got bigger, he would sleep on her bed and not let her on it. Now I think Cody misses her. No one to pick on.

Here's Keisha and her "Evil Twin" - about half a pound of winter hair that we raked off her and out of the carpet.

She was 14 when she had to go. That's the only thing that really sucks about owning a dog. We miss her terribly.

:-S
 
Battenkiller,

They are hard times when they have to leave us. My "Buddy" has been gone for 5 years now and I miss him dearly! He was 13 when his time came. His hips quit on him. I hate to say it but it doesn't get any easier with time! My wife and son can have dogs, But I will have a very hard time letting another one get that close.

Sorry for your loss.

Here is Bamboo multi-tasking. He's helping the future wood stacker learn to crawl and making sure the toy is close just incase it's needed.

I always have more Dog pics...

Boy does she look like granddad... The baby girl that is, not the cavalier :).
 
Nothing is harder than bidding adieu to a treasured friend. I have an image of the husband walking dejectedly toward the house carrying Sally's collar in his hand. She had collapsed in the dooryard and couldn't get up. We put her on her bed and put the bed in the car... . He cradled her as she went to sleep for the last ime. 13 yrs. can pass so quickly.

But after some time we realized that a certain sort of presence was missing from the household. And that was cured by a trip to the ASPCA. Animals are the visible soul of a home. Small wonder that the elderly die so soon after surrendering cherished pets and entering "long term care". They die from lonliness and broken hearts, I think.

These little guys are Oreo (mini poodle) and Max (beagle) both rescues.

The next little guy is Oliver, also a beagle. We just got him about 10 days ago. He, along with about 120 other beagles were rescued from a cosmetics research lab in NJ. The story goes that although they were not abused with any harsh chemicals, supposedly they had been in cages there whole lives (he's 3 years old), had never seen the sun or stepped foot on grass. A very sad story, but he is doing remarkably well.

sorry no pictures handy today but was flipping through and found this thread. I have a medical rescue beagle as well, yours will do fine but it may take time. My ally had pads softer than velvet, was cold all the time, couldn't pry her tail from between her legs, and was afraid of the dark! now she is the all weather, all terrain, scourge of the rabbit population in NJ and doesn't even stop wagging in her sleep. you are probably going to have trouble with the housebreaking since all they know is to sh=t where they sleep, but stick with it. we found crate training (which worked great for all our other dogs over the years) was the absolute worst thing possible (poo everywhere, non stop baying, etc) just took us dumb humans too long to figure out. I guess she got out of the cage and wasn't going back in! It took a solid year + of wee wee pads slowly moving closer to the back door but now she is good to go all day and asks at the door when she needs to go. She tracks all day and goes toe to toe with our 65 lb shepherd mix in the yard. good luck!

ugghhh Im with you, its going to be hard. I just got back from vacation and we missed our dog everyday. We vowed the next trip we take will only be to a dog friendly vacation house.
 
Hey hey hey this thread was about cheering people up not making them sad about losing their best freind.
 
I think the last time I posted pictures of Hank here he was no more than 3 months old! Here's one of him at his favorite place in the whole world-Round Valley Reservoir:

Haven't had a dog in years, though I sure love them. Our last fellow would be impossible to replace. I was there when he was born and there at the end. Still miss him a lot. Now we have a great cat with a great personality and a purr you can hear across the room. Here's his highness enjoying the fire side warmth.
