Dear Fellow Dog Lover: you know how it's insanely easy to like anyone who has a dog? Because she/he must be a good egg, obviously? No one could be more likeable..except a POSHER who's had/has/wants to have a dog! Like this listing if you love dogs! Will try to post dog-related ditties regularly for your enjoyment :).

Awww and this is the same thing I wish I could say to my doggy. She means the WORLD to me. Rescued her through my ex-figure skating coach when I was 17 (wow I can't believe we've had her for seven years now!), had decided I was going the community college then transfer route (meaning I'd be at my mom's for I THOUGHT three more years, tops, likely two--one gap year plus either two years and a light workload or full-time for a year, the rest of my pre-reqs were met by AP exams. I think my mom assumed I'd end up transferring to UCLA as well, which is a 10-20 min drive from her place depending on traffic, which I ended up doing, not willingly or happily at first (I'd been admitted to Johns Hopkins Uni, which was not only a huge honor because of how selective they are with transfers (8% acceptance), but also a sort of pipe dream come true--I actually announced, "Well here comes another rejection" before opening the email and links, since Stanford had recently rejected me, EARLY, before the 15th when we were supposed to hear, which I translated into a SUPER rejection. I ended up letting out the LONGEST string of almost every curse-word because I was so shocked and BEYOND elated to be accepted. I visited, I fell in love, then the day after I flew home my mom told me to sign my intent to register at UCLA because it was decided I would not go to Hopkins. She's a UCLA law school grad and a die hard Bruin. I was ALLOWED to get her since I'd be around, but I DECIDED to get her as an unofficial therapy dog because I was severely, severely depressed. I love her so so so much and I wish she could see into MY eyes and know that SHE means the world to ME.

I'm a HUGE dog lover! I have 2 English Bulldogs and they're the loves of my life. There's no feeling like the unconditional love of a dog - wouldn't trade it for anything. And my love doesn't extend just to my own - the other day my husband and I pulled over and left our car running in the middle of a busy street while we chased down a runaway pug we spotted. We lost site of him and it's been eating me up ever since :( Anyway, it's nice to meet another dog aficionado here on Posh!
thestarrynight
@jentucker Thanks so much for sharing! Aren't dogs amazing? They love freely, joyfully and unconditionally. Totally get your concern for the runaway dog. You and your hubby were super good-hearted to try so hard to help. An article on a little boy's perspective on the lifespan of dogs touched me: http://weruletheinternet.com/2011/05/24/a-dogs-purpose-according-to-a-6-year-old. Stay tuned for more funny/cute/sweet doggy moments - this listing is dedicated to dog lovers and their (Puppy)FFs!

@tgavril Aren't dogs the very best creatures in the world :)?
thestarrynight
@tgavril Lucky duck! What kind(s) and how old are your pups?
wanderingberry
@thestarrynight i always wanted a doggy! Especially the hotdog ones or the pugs. They're soooo chubby and cute 😚😭
thestarrynight
@wanderingberry Dogs are the best! Agree with you on hot dogs - they're so cute :). I also have a special fondness for golden retrievers (so smart, nice, and family-friendly), shelties, and a hybrid I recently discovered: the schnorkie (schnauzer + yorkie). How's this fine Sunday treating you?
wanderingberry
@thestarrynight haha golden retrievers are perhaps the happiest things ever! They always look like they're smiling. And Sundays fine! Just not excited for Monday 😱 Hope your Sundays going well too !😊😚

Working now to have a senior sanctuary later. Have 4 rescues now who are the loves of my life other than hubby <3 Nice to meet you fellow dog lover.
thestarrynight
@mturn2 Oh my gosh - thank you for sharing your beautiful story :). I absolutely admire your kindness and generosity of spirit! Do you ever read the Life with Dogs website? It contains stories that would make even the most hard-hearted of persons cry (both in joy and sorrow).
mturn2
I have not read but I will check it out. I read and do so much networking on fb hardly time for anything else. So many in need. It is a shame.
yolarealdeal
I have to say l love dogs so much, they are so pure and innocent and very loyal. Love them 💖💖💖💖🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐕🐩🐩🐩🐩🐩🐩🐶🐶🐶
mrsmadariaga
Aww love this. I have 5 Yorkies and a black lab!!! I'm a sucker lol
amyleigh71
I have two friends with fur!!! Love this!!! 💖💖
thestarrynight
@yolakohavi Agreed - dogs are wonderful :)! They're joyful, loving, intelligent, resourceful, hilarious..the very best friend a person could have.
thestarrynight
@mrsmadariaga Aww I love yorkies! And labs! How old are your pups?
thestarrynight
@amyleigh71 Aww what kinds of dogs do you have?
amyleigh71
They are catahoulas. Well one is a full blooded catahoula. The other one we rescued and she has coon dog in her buy some catahoula as well so I call her my coonahoula. They are typically hunting dogs but ours are lovin dogs :)
thestarrynight
@amyleigh71 I had to google catahoula - what remarkable looking hounds! They look highly intelligent.
amyleigh71
I will post a pic of them on my page and tag you 😍 The bigger one is Gracie. She is the one I made my husband say yes to off of Craigslist. She looked so sad. She had no leg muscles in her back legs and chugged water until she would barf. But after 5 years she is happy and healthy and funny and she knows it was me who wanted her. She has been mine since day one. So much intelligence in her eyes.
amyleigh71
Ok! Tagged you 😍
mrsmadariaga
@thestarrynight Not sure how old our Lab isbecause she was a rescue. we found her in our neighborhood about 3 1/2-4 years ago wandering around. She was well fed & looked cared for but no one ever claimed her & wasn't chipped so we kept her. The oldest yorkie, Peanut, is 6 1/2-another rescue. The family that had him couldn't care for him any longer. Then we have DiMaggio- our 1st Yorkie age 5 1/2. We also have Dolce age 4-Dimaggios daughter & mom of the 2 pups -Chanel & Valentino (7 mos).
thestarrynight
@mrsmadariaga My gosh! Your home must be a lovely, lovely place :)!

i love dog loving poshers! it instantly makes a closet that much better to see puppies! mine are my entire world, and my little one is stuck to my hip like glue. it is a love like no other!
thestarrynight
@sbethbarnett Aww what kind of pup do you have? I love my little guy - seeing him makes every day bright. He just got a pair of doggy rain boots for crummy weather and looks adorable in them!
sbethbarnett
i have a little girl- ailey- who is a dachshund/ terrier mix (fox, rat, jack russel-- we can only guess). my big guy, sawyer, is a mastiff/boxer mix. he was a "rescue" (i stole him from my neighbors- whoops. but they were horrible to him! he was severely malnourished, couldnt walk, embedded collar, eat up with mange and secondary infections when i rescued him). he lives with my grandmother now-- she has made him a house dog at 120 lbs! love my babies !
shopmattea
Yeah! I have a Golden Retriever named Sawyer who's just over a year old! So smart and the sweetest guy ever. He wasn't going to be allowed in bed, but he charmed his way around that ;) and whenever he can't come with us on a trip we have no trouble finding someone to watch him because he everyone loves him! I used to be a little judgy of people obsessed with their dogs, now I'm one of them!
thestarrynight
@shopmattea Thank you so much for sharing about Sawyer! Goldens are amazing! They're so smart, sweet and happy. Totally hear you on dogs charming their way into one's heart (and bed..and on trips..and on the couch..) :). Have you ever checked out the Life with Dogs website?
thejanismarie
I never knew how a "furry child" could make a way thru my heart like the chihuahua mix (pound puppy) that I have. They have unconditional love to give. I love my "granddogger"!
thestarrynight
@janismarie I know - dogs are amazing! Love at first sight :)!

My sweet Shih Tzu, Cissy, is the reason I'm alive today. I have PTSD and at times it gets pretty bad. When my husband was deployed I was a wreck. I was so severely suffering from PTSD and was alone, except for my pets. I was suicidal even. The only reason I survived was my angel puppy. She stayed right be my side the entire time. Licked my tears. Was my friend and loved me when I needed it so desperately. My life is beautiful now, but I would be here to enjoy it without Cissy's love!
kaylynnskorner
Wouldn't be here.....should say wouldn't.
gretzeli
@thestarrynight I would give anything I have if I could have my baby just one more time to hold him and kiss him, I lost him a month ago and he was my best friend, and this is so true, thenlove they give us has no equal! Beautiful words!
mollster72
Love these posts and love my fur baby! He's 200 pounds of love and drool. No, that's not a typo. He's an English Mastiff and a true gentle giant. He brings joy to my life every single day. Wishing all dog lovers happiness and success!
shopaholicsss
stuff like this breaks my heart :( my chihuahua left us last year. miss him so much!

Ten years ago, if you would ask me if a dog would ever sleep in my bed...I would have said NEVER! Now I sleep with my dog in OUR BED!!! 🐾🐾

I dearly love my boys 🐶🐶 I find myself rarely ever saying "dog" haha, Smokey & Bandit are silky terrier brother's😊 The Lord found to bless me with 3 wonderful daughters, after they were grown, I found myself blessed again, this time with, "my boys"!! 😬. My boys love & snuggle me, If I'm sick or sad, they know, always giving pure unconditional love ❤️ I wish everyone would adopt a fur baby so they could share in this Joy🐶🐶❤️I Love them
greatnanacloset
@thestarrynight anyone that can't love a dog, can not LOVE and will never know the meaning of unconditional love !! It breaks my heart 💔 to hear someone say ..."It's just a dog" I want to say... YOU ARE JUST AN IDIOT!!!
