Yes MaryCate I couldn't agree more about your thoughts about volenteers and shelters etc.

I think it really comes down to education, and educating people.

Education is an ongoing journey it seems. Thank God for people from the Humane Society and ASPCA and many other orgs for taking the time and effort to gently educate the public about matters.

If it wern't for organizations like them many of us would be very ignorant!

But like I said, it really is an ongoing process.

For instance, just a few years ago when I was still attending an offshoot, the ministers wife had told me how she wanted to breed their golden.

She actually said she wanted her kids to see her have babies! That was the reason she wanted to breed her dog!

This was an intelligent woman too. I thought...

I gently pointed out something I had heard the humane soiciety say, that a better way to teach kids about sex would be to bring them to a local shelter, and show them what happens when people breed irresponsibly.

I also ran into a young girl at PetSmart, a worker there, ,who saw my rott and was very sweet, then proceeded to tell me about her rott and how she had 3 litters of mixed breed puppies.

She was so proud, she said, oh first we had a german shepherd mate with her, then a pit, then we did a boxer!

I mean... What do you say?

Anyway, not to get on a soap box here...I want to see more doggie pics!

What a player!

Well Peruser, thanks for explaining what the heck a trible was in your IM.LOL. I have a feeling I'm the only greasespotter who's not a trekker.

Wheaton terriers are adorable. I saw one for the first time at a puppy training class when I first got Nico and I asked the guy what kind of mix it was. He got a little frustrated and said it wasn't a mix but a Wheaton. I just never saw one of those before!

Then I saw another one at the dog park that dove into the mudpool. That was halarious. Dove into it and rolled around. Those dogs are absolute clowns.

I bet the fish makes great entertainment for the cats. Must be like a live show for them.

Jesse I remember that you had a Jesse icon I think. I never heard of a Leonberger before. What beauties they are. They all are, they seem to be just one big happy family there. Those are great stories the way you aquired them.

I find it interesting that you just "happen" upon strays. Think some little angel might be putting them in your path? That was nice of you to buy the bulldog! 4 went out and 5 came in..LOL!

mj...My mom used to do that with the dogs when I was a kid and she would come home.. She would say stuff like..And what did she do when I was gone? OH! I was so thankful that they couldn't talk! I don't know if I would like a cat that would "tell" on me! ; ) MJ that was a sweet cat dedication too.

Kay I hope you can get your cats picture posted. I'd love to see a black cat with yellow eyes how cool Turtle? lol. cute name. I'd probably name a cat born on Halloween Dracula or something.

Mary Cate what a great story of your rat/terrier mix! That was so nice to adopt him from Petco. I'm glad these pet stores do that stuff. btw I only saw one rat terrier in my life at the dog park that tried to rip my rott to shreds. LOL! Me and the owner of the rat got a giggle out of it. That thing attached itself to Nico's head (my rott) and just tried to rip her to shreds. That little thing had no fear! BTW that's a great quote from St. Francis. Think I'm gonna have to memorize that one.

I think that's great that you are a foster mom. They are so greatly needed and I think it's wonderful that people open there homes to strays and dogs in need of temporary care.

All of our family dogs have been strays. Nico is the first dog I ever bought in my life. I just really wanted a rottweiler, and being the kind of breed of dog she was, and I never had a rott before, I wanted one as a puppy. But I do have to say I think that shelter dogs and strays seem to almost appreciate thier homes better. At least it seems that way!

As far as the dog/cat thing goes, I guess it's a matter of preference. I enjoy taking my dog out on walks, playing, having an animal guard me, and stuff like that. Dog's I think are a bit more difficult to take care of, and need more yard space.

Pro Rug and Linda I hope you can get your pics posted.

Hope everyone can.

Evan. Cockroaches, lol. I remember we got those a couple of times when I was a kid. My mom never would admit they were cockroaches though. She always said they were waterbugs. Okay mom.....

What? Nobody owns any snakes?

Hi Orient! A cat that comes when you whistle and plays fetch?????? That is one heck of a cat!

...It's hard to be humble when you own a Rottweiler...

aw Z that is so sweet. I believe God healed you're kitty too!

Dot what a nice looking couple you and your hubby are..and what a family! LOL! I take it you're both dog lovers.

Lets see, the black one, Cinder? Is that the name? Looks like a pomeranian? Tipper looks like A bichon, Rusty (good name) looks kind of like that Dreyfus dog on empty nest..

Baby looks like a poodle and Murphy looks kind of like a cocker mix, but maybe a pekinise(sp) or dangzu mix? Am I totally off? I'm not really up on dog breeds!

...It's hard to be humble when you own a Rottweiler...

I can't wait to see you're fur kids! I see the pictures are "pending moderation" so far.

I am new to this whole posting picture thing, but what I did was play with my digital for the first time today.

I saved her picture on the harddrive as a JPEG file..whatever that is. Then I uploaded it on an AOL Hometown page.

Then I right clicked the picture, and left clicked under properties and copied and pasted that URL address, and put it in the "Image" place.

I think somebody like Steve! would probably be better to ask though! I'm still learning by trial and error.

But your way seems to be working as soon as it "pends moderation" lol. whatever that means.

I can't see the pictures yet, but I will come back later to see your family!

...It's hard to be humble when you own a Rottweiler...

I think these stories are hysterical! And the smiley face one..how cute!

...It's hard to be humble when you own a Rottweiler...

Emma and Molly those are sweet names. I like shepherd mix anything. Shepherd and terrier sounds like a great combo.

One of these days I might get a kitty. Some of them are so sweet. Plus they are great for catching rodents like you mentioned and bugs.

...It's hard to be humble when you own a Rottweiler...

She gives me a whole rotta love.

...It's hard to be humble when you own a Rottweiler...

Tell about your fur kids. What do you have? What are their names? How did you name them? How old are they and how did you get them? What would be your fantasy animal, I mean an animal that you would choose if you were able to pick any.

...It's hard to be humble when you own a Rottweiler...

I'm so sorry about Emmitt I know animals are so hard to lose. They are part of the family.

Rest well Emmitt and see you at rainbow bridge with all our other fur kids when the time cmes.

"I think God will handle it! Burn it up, have it miss, make it smaller -- have it hit an important place like New Knoxville Ohio...."

I know Zix didn't think it quite humorous...

but it tickled me!

I'm not, so I can't give you step by step instructions.

But you can copy a picture to the webspace that you have available, and then you can link to it in your post.

But it sounds like there's a learning curve involved with doing that.

Good luck!

Eagle girl LOL. Yeah so far on this forum, it seems much more user friendly than the last with certain, and I underline certain things.

but I still like to read and learn. Thanks!

...It's hard to be humble when you own a Rottweiler...

Yeah I was gonna ask the same thing. I'm really sorry for butting in here but I'm trying to learn this stuff too. Can you show exactly what you mean?

The more elementery the better.

Sorry for butting in Eagle.

...It's hard to be humble when you own a Rottweiler...

I can almost picture that kind of dream. Alive, in living color, and almost too real.

You must have thought about this time and time again. Did you figure out for yourself what the interpertation meant for you? Not that you have to tell me.

I'm just wondering if you had to think about it for awhile and knew what it meant?

...It's hard to be humble when you own a Rottweiler...

Good lord def, that gets complicated, lol.

Yeah Ex, we will have to catch up with Cool on another thread and remind her to tell that story. That one I want to hear..I think...

Wow John You're up late!

Real Audio Favorites

If you go to this website and click on the spiritual section, there is a song called "we will stand." It's a 9/11 tribute. It gives the artists name too but I forgot.

I'm not sure you can copy songs off this site though, I think it's for just listening too.

It's a neat little site anyway. And if you post in the guestbook somebody may send it to you. Someone did that for me when I wanted a song to download on my harddrive.

Wordwolf, you're welcome!

A very Brady chainsaw massacre? Ewwww!

As much as I love some horror movies. TCSM is one I can't stomache to this day.

Same with "Henry:Portrait of a serial killer" and the last 5 minutes of "Looking for Mr. Goodbar"

...Shudder...

...It's hard to be humble when you own a Rottweiler...

I think I see the woman(?) You're talking about. Behind the guy with the purple turban.

I see what you mean about it not being angled right. Seems like a few are staring at the sand castle but others are looking at the camera, in different directions etc.

You've got to be kidding..I mean is this thing for real? Or is this just a doctored photo or somebodies idea of a sick joke or what?

Who are these people and what the heck is this for?

I liked Roseanne Too! I have to admit when it first came out, it took me awhile to warm up to it. I thought it should have ended a couple seasons before it actually did. I never cared for the new Becky.

Fantasy Island didn't hold up over time for me. As Dark Shadows. Loved it as a kid, when I see it now it's just not the same.

...On the eighth day, God created Rottweilers...

When "The View" comes on I usually flip the station sofast there is smoke coming out of the remote. I can't even give an opinion on how bad it is...I just know I wouldn't like it.

Howard Stern in my opinion is an ugly perverted sick oinker. I woudn't even give him number 1 spot because he would relish in it.

P.T.L,lol I liked that show. Me and my mom used to watch it in the 80's before all the controversy started.

We loved "Tammy's House Party" And I always thought Tammy had a great voice! I thought she could belt out some of those tunes so well! Honestly!
