In honor of Chase the Wonder Dog, I thought it might be nice to post some pictures of the great dogs we’ve had. There’s no better friend than a good dog. Please share your photos and stories.

Our first true “baby” was an English Bulldog named Dreyfus. We got him right after we got married in 1998. He had personality in spades and thought he was a 60 pound lap dog. He’s the only dog we’ve ever had who you could actually see smiling when he knew he was up to no good. As most bulldogs are, he was as lazy as the day is long. When taking walks he would often just have a seat in the road and you knew you’d have to wait him out. He drooled and farted like crazy! One of the funniest things about him was that people were scared of the look of him, but he was as gentle as a lamb. When our son got big enough, he just about pull that dogs ears off and Dreyfus would just look at you and roll his eyes. Bulldogs are great, but they tend to have a lot of genetic health issues and don’t live long. He almost made it to 8 years. Still miss him.

Our current and official “third child” is a Bichon named Dixie. My wife says she’s a used dog because we got her at 6 months old when her original owners wanted to re-home her. It was their loss, she’s the best dog we’ve ever had. 10 pounds of pure laziness that only wants to sleep and would let you rub her belly all day. She’s very sweet and gentle and absolutely loves her treats. Always excited to see us when we walk in the door. She thinks she’s a holy terror to coons, possums, and deer when she sees them in the back yard. She’s 7 and has bad arthritis in her knees so she can’t jump very well. She also has a chronic back issue that flares up from time to time. I fear that these things will limit her life span. We will all be devastated when her time comes.

Poochie Mama…Somebody dumped her off on our dead end gravel road, years ago. I was single at the time and was gone from home for several days at a time. The last thing I needed was a dog. I fed her the night she showed up, but I left the next day for a 3 day job. I made the mistake of telling my dad about her, and when I got home, the dog was still there, along with a bag of dog food. She learned very quickly to go down the mile of gravel road, to my parent’s house, and stay there until I would get back from jobs. I got married a couple of years later and Poochie got very sick with some neurological disorder, where she stopped eating. My wife had to force feed her for 3 weeks, and she finally came out of it.

We guessed she was approximately 2-3 years old when she showed up on my doorstep. She lived another ten years before we finally had to put her dow. I sobbed like a baby that day. She was the best dog we’ve ever had. She LOVED to ride with me, especially when I was pushing snow. She would lean up against me the entire time :-)

In honor of Chase.

These are our pugs.

Junior, the boy is on the left and Vada, the girl is on the right. They are brother and sister and they will be 2 on December 23rd.

I have always had bigger dogs and was against getting a small dog. My wife and my son out voted me and when we went to see the pups and I saw that there were only 2 in the litter I said, might as well take them both.....Best decision ever.

They are the most loveable intelligent little rascals I've ever known. I couldn't imagine my life without them and i hope they live a long, long time.

Good looking dogs all. Keep it going!

My pair. On the right is my one-eyed Jack, ( Jack Russell Terrorist that is ). We’ve had Sarge since he was a pup, thirteen years. The little Sheltie showed up on our back porch a little over two years ago. We finally found the owner who lives about a mile up the road but the lady has medical problems and could no longer take care of him, I named him Bigfoot ! We found out later his name was Bristol, but he’s Bigfoot now. He’s fourteen years old. Naturally Sarge is my favorite but I wouldn’t take for either of them, I just have so much history with Sarge. Gonna be some sad singing and slow walking when it’s time….

Pepper with the new pup “Harley”. Harley is now 13, closing in on 14 and has laryngeal paralysis, had surgery to open half his airway, unfortunately his hunting days are in the past as a result. If not for that we’d still be chasing chukar this year because he’s still strong and healthy other than his breathing capacity.

Great pix folks, thanks for sharing...

EmbryOklahoma - Your Tater Top just cracks me, you can tell she just rip roaring ready to go...8^)

I feel for ya DL and all others who's recently lost their pups...

My X took the Yorkie and the blue Yorkie-Poo when we split 5 years ago and I kept the white Multi-Poo after adding a Teckel pup... There was less than 2 years difference in their age, 13 - 14 and ironically, all three past within 5 months this year... Pearl, the youngest passed first and her mother Zoie the oldest passed last... I was with Pearly Girl when she was born, doc her tail when minutes old, and had her 13 years until she died in my arms when we had to put her down in late March due to cancer... Toughest day of my life, actually am still not over it...

My old pug, Bella, is a real character too. She thinks she’s a big deal, strutting around like she owns the place. Whenever she sees a squirrel in the yard, she goes into full-on barking mode, but once they run away, she just looks at me like, "What happened?"Bulldogs and pugs share that lazy vibe, don’t they? Bella is always finding the sunniest spot in the house for a nap. And like you said about Dreyfus, she’s got that goofy side that makes everyone smile. It’s heartbreaking to think about their health issues, but we cherish every moment. For anyone interested in pugs, pugsbeauty.com has tons of resources and cute stuff. Dogs really are the best friends.

Almost two years later. What a burr magnet, but so much fun.

Pretty sad day this summer, especially heartbreaking for my wife. We had to put her dog, Hemi, down in August because of bone cancer. Hemi was a sweetheart to everyone she ever came in contact with. She was a therapy dog and loved to interact with everyone from nursing home residents, sick kids in the hospital, or groups of kids at the library or school, not to mention several Bowsiters over the years.

We lost Lucky last Friday. He was born on valentine's day 2014. He blew out both knees over the years, 4 months ago he had surgery for laryngeal paralysis. I think we were 15 grand into surgeries. Last week his spleen somehow ruptured. Thankfully the vet kept him alive long enough so we could get my daughters there to say goodbye.

Great dog, we have 4 people with broken hearts. While labs are great hunting dogs, they are better kid dogs. My 15 year old is devastated but that is a part of life.

I've got a pair of good ones. The ten year old lab showed the new Brittany how to hunt. Shot 3 chickens and 6 pheasants over them last week with one of my old Model 12 winchesters in 16 guage.

We lost our beloved 12 year old lab Gunner around five years ago he had both knees replaced and was a seizure dog but he was a phenomenal buddy and it took a long time before deciding we can’t be without a dog.Meet Smokey our rescue dog not sure who rescued who.He is such a buddy. I tried to train several of labs through the years to find sheds with very little success.Well on his own he has found several makes me wonder what experiences he had before he was picked up and put in the shelter.As Will Rogers stated “If dogs don’t go to Heaven I’m not going “Lewis

We had to put Sargeant Buster K. Brown to sleep about this time a year ago. It was tough on my family and we were there together to see it through.

I wasn’t going to get another pup, but that only lasted a few weeks and I got another JRT, a little girl that we named Molly. She’s a shortie and like all JRTs is full of piss and vinegar !

Lost my Aussie Cooper of 9 years about 6 weeks ago. I thought he might have been poisoned he woke up acting drunk, could barely stand, breathing shallow. The vet drained 500ml of blood from his chest and noted a tumor on his heart....essentially telling us he was a goner right then.

When we moved away to talk, Cooper got up to follow us- tough dog. We took him home and let everyone say goodbye to him...and had to put him down a couple days later.

Great dog- loved everyone and they loved him. My gardener, pool guy and entire neighborhood cried buckets- crazy how many people Cooper touched.
