Springtime of 2020 these guys was living on the street. Dumped. Now they mostly sit around all day waiting for the next nice thing I'm gonna do for 'em. Heck, they've left their mark in at least eight States already.

Progressives are the most open minded, tolerant, and inclusive people on the planet, as long as you agree with everything they say, and do exactly as you're told.

Those are some smart dogs but they could never get into a good school here in the USA because they are Asian.

When people act in self-interest, one may lose a job, a spouse, a deal, about anything can and does happen. When a dog acts in self interest, one might lose a piece of unwatched cheese or meat from a plate. A dog i can trust. A chance he might hump my leg one day, but he won’t f me in the azz. Comes down to “just a dog,” i know. But their love and loyalty, while “just a dog,” is sincere. My little old lady farm dog. You know the type: ever vigilant, ever duty-bound, and sweetest of dispositions. Arthritis is bad now, moving slow, but surprised me the other weekend at the cabin - she’d been fully underwater in the creek appears, probably frogging. Good girl, Sandy. She can have the soft bed whenever she likes. She’s earned it. Sheets can be washed, hell. My permanent 3yo toddler, Hanklin Delano. Ever in trouble, ever worships his daddy. Silly poodle - like life and like human children, he is who he is, but he’s my boy and best little buddy. Goes everywhere. In bed of ‘67 f250, mountain forest road, waiting for the fireworks over town below this past 4th.
Golldammed motion detector lights. A guy can’t even piss off his porch in peace any more.

I have been single all my life... late in life... 46 y/o I met the most perfect companion.... she loved to travel... loved to cook... loved to keep house... Attractive.... And I mean attractive.... not just attractive... but HOT with curves in all the right areas...
She had a nicer house and so my dog and I moved in... and rented out my house... at first, She loved the dog.... but later, 3 years later... came to be jealous of my black Labrador.... every day after work, I would take the dogs walking... her dog and mine.
One day.... while getting my hiking boots on.... my dog was there.... Tail just a wagging.... jumping up and down anticipating his walk... She came walking toward the back door talking or telling me something... and when my dog heard her voice, he dropped his head and sulked away to hide behind the bushes....
A week or so went by.... I was just sick with what to do because I was not going to give up my dog.... He had, and still has, a blind loyalty to me... his human. Then my renters called.... "hey, we bought a house.... and... would it be ok if we are out in the middle of the month ? " I was like... "Yup... I will make it work for you... in fact.... as soon as you are out, I will stop by with cash for your security deposit if the house is all good... " At dinner later that week.... "So you choose that dog over me ! ??? " "Yup...."
Excellent choice my man…. An excellent choice would be learning to type without the ridiculous, purposeless strings of periods.

Dogs are great. I miss my last one a lot.
That said. Dogs love anyone who walks them, feeds them and takes them for car rides.

You can have the worst day of your life. The world can absolutely beat you into the ground. You can feel powerless to the evil of the media and the government. And when you come home and open the door, you are instantly a hero. This. 100%

Dogs know when you’ve had a [bleep] birthday and just need some love. They’re second only to bourbon for making a bad day ok. What breed is that? Is it full grown or do it get bigger? Beautiful dog.
