There's just something special about the two together. I remember my first dog as a child and the memories that stay with me today. When I see my sons and our pup playing it warms my heart. They jump on him, wrestle him down, and he lays there with almost a smile on face. He was 8 weeks old when we brought him home. When he was 6 weeks we went to the breeder to pick out a pup and pay the deposit. Out of a litter of 9 he was the first to run up to my then 4 year old and sit in his lap. He was the one. Here's a couple of pics that just make me happy to look at.

no pics, but similar story...we picked our dog out when he was only 4 weeks old...my daughter was about 10 months old. We live on an acreage with an extremely large fenced back yard and those two would spend hours back there together. He wouldn't really follow her per se...but he was never more than 20 feet away either! Now he's getting close to 10, his vision is almost gone and he's pretty old for a big dog. I've got a cat that I wish would just go away, but I'm gonna be a mess the day the big dog has to go.

This is the only pic I have of either of my kids with the dog.. I tried to get them to ride the big mutt, but she just stood there when the kids were on her back... They love their dog, ask about here when we're gone for a day or 2...

We got our dog 2.5 years ago Christmas. Before then she always begged us for a dog but we weren't ready to make that commitment. When we finally decided to get a dog I did lots of research on what kind of dog would complement our family. We found a breeder & got ourselves a mini dachshund. On Christmas morning, she lifted the blanket off the crate and looked at us and said "I thought you said we couldn't have a dog".

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By LegioX · Posted

      Bryce has been in the NFL 3 years and still looks like a very mediocre QB. Most games are nothing but mediocre plays with a highlight reel every now and then.  He is a very INCONSISTENT QB and it’s very fustrating. He does not deserve a 5th year option, even though the Panthers and all the dumb asses in the front office will give it to him.

      If they lose the last three......

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      I’ve rarely ever been more sure of anything than losing out — but how can anyone say with a straight face “Bryce hasn’t improved, but Canales has and he’s masks his flaws”. You have to be so out of touch with reality to put one way above the other when discussing those two.

      Last night was the classic example of a visiting team just holding on through the wave of emotion a home team has at the start of a big time game. Bama’s first two kickoff returns really set them back as far as playcalling and allowed OU to dictate field position. The emotion of the home crowd fed into what OU was doing at that point, and it felt like Bama would not be able to overcome that.     Once the kickoff returner was told to fair catch every kick, the game shifted, as Bama wasn’t starting each drive inside their own 15. It was then that Bama was able to make some plays, outscoring OU 34-7 the rest of the way.  I think the last 3/4 of the game proves Bama was the better team. OU was just able to ride the initial wave of emotion to a big lead, but Bama held on just enough.  However, had OU blocked the punt on Bama’s second drive and scored a TD (vice a FG on the ensuing drive), things likely would have been different.  Anyway, Roll Tide!
