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 Last edited by ls7plus; 08-17-2016 at 04:30 PM. |

This is Edison. My girlfriend and I adopted him from a rescue organization that saves strays in Puerto Rico.

good lookin' dog - curious where the stadium seat is from??? - IF your user name is any indication, I'm guessing (!) old Yankee Stadium or Ebbets Field, but I could be wrong - no matter where it's from, it's still a great prop/backdrop AND dog.

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?

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.

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!
