Finn ,,he was rescued from a bad scene ,,thank god ..

This is Brooxie, named for Herb Brooks. She is a rescue also.

Nice looking dog Octavio. The first pic is of our current rescue dog Bubba. We have had him close to 3 years now. I did not want a little dog(under100lbs) or a Pitbull but this amazing little guy sad puppy eyed me into taking him home from the shelter. He has been a great dog.:)

The second pic is our last 2 shelter dogs. We had them for close to 13 years each and I still miss them to this day. They where about 11 or 12 in that picture. Bernie the St Bernard was about 8 months when we adopted him. When I walked by his kennel he stood up on the gate and put his head on my shoulder. After that I had to take him home. After having Bernie for a couple months my Wife said he needed a friend. We went back to the shelter and while there Samson the Rottweiler was brought in because the owner was moving. We took him home.:)

This is Luigi. Also a rescue, originally a Puerto Rican street dog. He still has a lot of street dog in him.

our 5
 

Our brood as of a few minutes ago. The 2 inside dogs are kind of freaked out because there are approximately 7 guys on our roof with nail guns putting a new roof on. Many dogs don't do too well in that environment. The outside 3 could care less about them except the male, Linus, barks at them for a while to start things off in the morning. It's his job I guess...(btw, all 3 outside dogs are together in a fairly large area that will be larger soon. They aren't separated. )

Murph (9 year old Wheaten) and I love to play toy toss with his stuffed dog. When I was traveling for a few days, and my wife was busy with the kids, she said Murph ended up following her around with his dog, looking for someone to play with him. She snapped this pic and sent to me, with Murph looking pathetic and wanting her to play, since I wasn't there. Love this guy!

Murph also has been known to join us in dressing up for an ugly Christmas sweater party....

Here's my dog Jack perusing my book when it came out last year

I don't think Luigi would do too well on the street wearing that hat!!

Well, he hated wearing it, and this picture was taken during one of the split-seconds before he shook it off. That's his graduation picture from his puppy training class last year. And by the way, that's his teacher, not me, in the picture with the killer tats.

this is Bo. He's been a great blessing to me and my family. American Redbone. The only thing he hunts is couches.

This is Maxx. One of our six dogs. We had a Smooth Fox Terrier, a Wheaten Terrier, a Chiuahua, and Maxx, a Jack Russell/Border Collie mix before we added my mother in laws 2 Schnauzers when she passed away on April 1 2016. Luckily, they do get along. Will have to post pics of other dogs when I get some.

Great thread! Cute dogs (and iguanas) everyone!

Here's my dog Pete doing his two favorite things :D

Just dogs? Here's my rescued cat, Sylvester, who looks upon everything with great suspicion. Comes when he's called, chews on baseball cards like catnip, and loves unconditionally. There's room in your hearts for those with nine lives too.... :)

"rescued" an unwanted dog from the 'gonna put him down if I can't find a good home' needle back in the early/mid 1980's as somebody (ex-girlfriend's mom's friend) just didn't want it anymore...awesome f**king dog! - one of my better decisions then AND now.

dogs are in so many ways better than people - they may occasionally sh!t on the floor, but they'll never (intentionally) sh!t on you or me.

great thread! - loving the pictures/stories.

This is the cat, Hai Mao (Chinese for black cat; my daughter named him). He is a far more interesting person. I call him The Black Death as he slaughters all manner of creatures in our yard, without discriminating. I've seen him catch, kill and eat an entire rat, tail included. Some days I find bits and pieces of multiple varmints strewn across the lawn. I know if he was 100# heavier he'd kill us all in our sleep and eat our livers with fava beans and a fine chianti. I can respect that...

Just acquired a PSA poor to fair 1917 Boston Store Sam Crawford, with wear, creasing and staining--does that qualify? On a more serious note, we had a wonderful American Staffordshire Terrier, Coffee, which we had to put to sleep six years ago, just a couple months shy of her 15th birthday (not bad longevity for an eighty pound dog!). She was the most wonderful dog--when my wife was working late night after night just after she had ascended to the presidency/CEO-ship of her company, Coffee would hear her car arrive and park in the driveway, and immediately erupt into sheer joy--"Mom's home;" Mom's home!" She had a propensity for getting into the garbage even thought she knew that was a no-no, and we used to punish her by putting her into the big doggy cage in the basement for an hour. After awhile, she would get into the garbage anyway when we were away, and as soon as we came home, she would sheepishly go downstairs on her own and put herself into the cage! What a conscience! Truly a riot!
The day she died was my 40th high school reunion, and although I had tickets, I just could not go--would have broken down into tears at any moment. Just sat on the porch sipping a black russian. They are truly family--thanks to all that have shared photos!

We now have 4 rescue cats (cats are easier) varying in age from 2 to 9, which we love dearly and they offer the same love and affection in return. One feral cat I brought home just over two years ago when he was only about 8 weeks old will go down into the family room while I am watching baseball on the big, high def screen and crawl up onto my chest or stomach, put his paws up on my upper chest in a pumping motion of affection, and lick my neck and chin. He is my baseball buddy, my little boy, but the others are similarly affectionate, giving back love for love received.

The wife is prone to saying, "We have too many cats," to which I will reply, "Yes, dear, we are truly blessed with cats." They ARE truly family!

Best to all the animal lovers out there--you are truly the best of people,

Larry

Of Finn omg everyone thank you for posting great doggies and cats

After a lifetime of rescue dogs last year I purchased my first purebred. This is Pacheco he is a one year old bull terrier. I felt guilty after purchasing him for about 5 minutes. For the price of a PSA 6 Koufax I purchased a best friend. He keeps me laughing as he is deliciously bad. He has a taste for expensive shoes and is a big time bra killer. I live with three women so he has a target rich environment. I have a very stressful job and I live vicariously through his I don’t give a sh!t attitude. My wife wants me to get him trained but why would I train all the fun out of him?

Well, he's technically not mine, but I do an awful lot of dog sitting! :D

Kricket is a rescue (we think he's an 11-year-old Rat Terrier) that my daughter got when one of the surgeons at her place of work (Oradell NJ Animal Hospital) did some free heart surgery on him at the request of the North Shore Animal League.

He is a great dog (though he still has health issues) and he used to be a great drinking companion! ;)

My dog, Bentley, who just had his first birthday.

Glad I am not the only one!

I love all animals and have owned a few dogs as well growing up, but due to circumstances, (we both work and feel it is unfair to a dog) we have a cat.

This neglected guy showed up a few days after we put our beloved "Norton" down, He just hung around, followed me to school when I went to pick up my son, became close, even with a wild side as he was an outdoor cat.
After a couple months, a lady, who seen him following us home from school, called his name.
Long story short, he belonged to her neighbor, and after conversing with them, they gave him up.
He was neglected, left outdoors for weeks, left out in the cold/rain, etc. (Found out from her and others)

Trip to vet to get all shots done, check up and has been nothing but a great, appreciative cat ever since. :)

These same people, for whatever reason, purchased another cat last year, which we seen, out in the rain, the cold, snow etc, and it has disappeared already!

I don't have accessible photos of the 2 here now
 

But this is a photo of my beloved Heidi, who loved watching baseball with daddy and left us a few years ago

It's an old photo (Christmas 2014) but here's mine:

http://i592.photobucket.com/albums/t...psnklglzup.jpg

The blur on the left is my mom tossing him a treat. Wonder will turn 11 in a little under a month. He had a cancer scare about a year ago, which he beat. He needed surgery to remove lumps from his leg and stomach, but he pulled through ok. He's getting arthritis now in his hind legs, but he's still a puppy at heart. As of this writing, he is trying to turf me out of my seat on the couch.

I get a kick out of those little guys! A guy on a snowmobile forum I belong to has one and some of the pics he posts are hilarious.

Says it has been a great dog with hardly any issues.

Awesome dogs(all pets) everyone. Like how several have sports related names. We call our dog Bubba, it is short for Bubba Chuck. Yes I am an Allen Iverson fan.:)

Thanks! Yes, the seat is from the original Yankee Stadium. I picked it up earlier this year. It's amazing how many coats of paint you can see when you look at the back.

She was 12 weeks old on Tuesday
 

This is Violet we adopted her two week ago she is a purebred tri color american Cocker Spaniel. She was the runt of her litter 3.5 pounds when we picked her up. She was 4 pounds 10 oz when this was taken on Tuesday. Forgot how much work a puppy is but loving every minute of it. Great pets all thanks for sharing.

This cool dog is a year and half old Australian Shepherd-Poodle mix. Adopted her about a year ago and still working on some of her anxiety issues. She's a sweetheart and hardly sheds at all!

A graduate of the Petsmart on Elston perhaps?

While misplaced, this thread has been one of the most enjoyable ones I've seen...what a great bunch of dogs!

I adopted my rescue dog, a terrier-mix named Buddy, five years ago and my life has been ultimately richer ever since.

He a sweet dog who greets me with kisses every time I come home. It's impossible to stay in a bad mood when you get greetings like that.

We can all learn a little from our pets.

So, while Leon should move this thread (IMO) to the off-sports watercooler, we should not be scolded for enjoying it.

Here's my Buddy:

I didn't pay too much attention to this thread at first because I figured it was about beat up baseball cards. :)

The pretty girl on the left is Jellybean, she's a 4 yr old Border Collie Mix. The cute little guy on the right is Hershey, he's a 4 yr old Spaniel/Dachshund mix. Both are shelter rescues and each turns 5 in December. They're very valuable members of our household and pretty good friends themselves.

This is one of those rare times they're both sitting still and were actually being quite cooperative so I could take their picture.

Might be adding a 3rd in the upcoming weeks as well :)

I'm not much of a pet guy, however, my wife and I dogsit our daughter's American Staffordshire Terrier, BamBam, when she is working 24-hour shifts at a local fire & rescue department - and, he is a GREAT dog!

We adopted Trixie from the Second Change SPCA in Plano, Texas (a second chance shelter that rescues dogs from kill shelters) in October of 2014. The vet surmised she was 1 1/2 to 2 years old due to the wear on her teeth, so we'll celebrate her 4th birthday this October. She seems to like pre-war Goudeys. Very well marked Boston Terrier!

This is Buck, an eight year old yellow lab rescue. He's considered the Pete Gray of our canine community. Approx. 18 months ago, Buck lost a front leg...literally!
The leg had swelled up like a war club and could not be repaired surgically or rehabbed, testing did not give a definitive diagnosis. Upon amputation, the leg was sent via UPS to the University of Colorado to be biopsied. Unfortunately, the appendage never reached its destination.....UPS lost the leg. Imagine the look on the individual's face who opened that package!

Lila Rose daddy's number one Cub fan

This is Penny. She's kind of a lap dog. She's also a humane society rescue.

This is Max. Max is so dumb, he was once trapped for hours after a throw pillow fell on top of him.

I'm not kidding.

He's very sweet, though, which is breed-consistent. He's a long-term foster.

This is Merlin. Somebody dumped him on the street when he was a puppy, and my wife adopted him after he got taken to the vet hospital where she worked.

He's my bud. He's 14, his face is whiter than in this picture (which isn't but a year or so old), he's down a gall bladder and some other parts after a surgery last December, his kidneys are failing, and he has the kind of gas that makes you want to claw your eyes out and Gorilla Glue your nostrils.

But he's my bud.

I've got a black Frenchie as well, Daisy. She doesn't mind worth a damn but wouldn't trade her for anything.

Sounds like my wife!! Great thread ..

Funny. I almost inserted the same comment about MY wife.

And, nothing but admiration for Leon and other Board members who take in rescue dogs. Doing God's work. I expect my next dog to be a rescue dog as well.
