Murphy is a German Shepard/Lab mix (we think) who was supposed to die two years ago of a brain tumor - he still seizes under stress and he doesn’t move too good anymore, but he’s happy at 12.

Bogart is a two year old grief puppy so I had something to hold when Murphy died (it was supposed to be six weeks or less. they sent me home from the emergency vet with the number for home euthanasia - after telling me to come see whether I even wanted to bring him home) - Australian Cattle Dog and god only knows what.

Penguin is the tuxedo cat who is the alpha dog in the mix.

Reuben is a four month old Red Heeler puppy, who, when he is good he is very, very good, but when he is bad he’s a righteous little bastid. 😃

Bumped.

Our dog Dewey, age 7, is a yellow Lab. Sweet as can be, but dumb as a box of rocks. He looks a lot like this: [yellow labrador - Bing](https://www4.bing.com/images/search?view=detailV2&ccid=bJLJNnJx&id=00AD97F9FC8D466C73EFC1B16A8DD327F3D64407&thid=OIP.bJLJNnJxE4AcW4ZhUfKyKAHaFs&mediaurl=https%3a%2f%2fs-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com%2foriginals%2f50%2f9c%2fa8%2f509ca89dde59b6bde06df6a41bae8f29.jpg&exph=2114&expw=2747&q=yellow+labrador&simid=608015956785956246&selectedIndex=21&ajaxhist=0)

Dachshund. His name is Mauser. I named him for a dog in a Clive Cussler novel. Next Sunday, July 8th, will be one year since I adopted him, as a five year old, from a shelter.

Angel passed away in April. [Here’s her picture.](https://scontent-lax3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/fr/cp0/e15/q65/30713340_1705297816253888_7255387473120833676_n.jpg?_nc_cat=0&efg=eyJpIjoidCJ9&oh=701376dd9e7e137c5195b6dd2d10e1c6&oe=5BA5198B) She was a very sweet dog.

I adopted a [chocolate Lab](https://m.facebook.com/photo/view_full_size/?fbid=1738849699565366&ref_component=mbasic_photo_permalink&ref_page=%2Fwap%2Fphoto.php&refid=13& __tn__ =%2Cg) in May. His name is Justice, and he’s about two years old. You can see from his picture he’s a very happy and friendly boy. I’ve always wanted a chocolate brown Labrador, and he’s turned out to be a very good dog. Happy and playful, very obedient and completely housebroken, to boot.

I think Shamus may be fooling you. Aren’t Maine Coons really cats?

Mackie passed away this past March, so we are currently friendless. This evening I found myself putting my dinner plate on the floor for Mackie to finish off. ☹ \<3

But we did have a temporary dog friend for a few hours… [x.com](https://twitter.com/JohnT15/status/1010412070922280960?s=19)

I’m sorry to hear about Mackie, but your daughter sounds like a lovely person. Good for you all for helping out. 🙂

12 yr old yellow lab, “Tammy Whinette”, goes by Tammy  
12 yr old choclate lab, “Stan by yer man”, goes by Stan  
9 year old black lab, “Minnie Pearl”, goes by Minnie  
Minnie was a rescue and was tiny compared to the other two, which is how she ended up with her name, plus I like themes!

Never gets old, man. Never gets old.

Thanks.

Jackson is from Memphis and Scout is from Tupelo, Miss. As far as breed goes, they are “black dogs.”

Kowalski is a black and white shihtzu, we think he’s eight, we got him from a shelter a little over 2 years ago. He’s my little comedian. Brownie is a brown cocker spaniel, we think she’s six or seven, again got her from the same shelter. She is my sweet, very excitable girl.

When I looked at the dates, I was amazed I hadn’t seen this thread before now. Scrolling through, it looks like I did.

Who cares, there’s always room for [more pictures of doggos](https://imgur.com/HohLQPd).
