YOUR DOGS, CATS & Other Domestic Fauna - Cute, sad, buff or silly

[Capt MJ]

Lost our beautiful mare last week. Her heart gave out. She spent the last hour or so of her life with her head in my lap. She's with our stallion now.

So sorry. You gave her the gift of freedom from pain, and safety and comfort at the end. No doubt she gave you back threefold in faithful companionship over her time with you.

We are down to two still-single-digit mares, both healthy and with presumably many good years left. Two summers ago we said farewell to our 40 year old Thoroughbred dapple grey (melanoma) and her long-time companion, a rescue quarter horse blind in one eye and crippled with arthritis. We let them go together, buried on a hill in their favorite pasture.

This is the beauteous Nellie, the Thoroughbred. I may already have posted her pic. Over her long career, racehorse, English eventer, dressage, Western pleasure - smart and athletic enough to do it all, and a lovely disposition. And always the lead mare in the paddock.

This is my Blue heeler pound hound (crossed with a pocket pit???). She would like you all to know there aren't enough horse pictures on here, so she asked me to share one of my younger horse.

So here is my "young horse" who's 9 years old in this picture, I've had him since he was almost 2.

She reminds me of my grey Arab mare I had in California. She was the grandmother to the one I lost in 2010.

My boy Buster on Onslow Beach a few years. ago. He's really my son's dog. I'm just the one who feeds him and picks up his poop.

He’s loving life. Full-out run.

He'll be 14 in August and is slowing but still sassy and a bit nuts.

Springtime in Wisconsin and our grass is actually greening up. I thought I bring this thread back up and show how my pups have grown. They constantly chase and wrestle over the red chuck.

They probably shook you down for dog bix, before and after.

Boxer response when questioned as to what they were doing in a guest bedroom.

Mandy (Olympic’s Remember Me): “I’m new to this bed, so I’m a guest.”

Rupert (Global’s Red Baron of Faerdorn): “A man can’t have too many pillows.”

Snot, snoring, and sporadic methane releases...constantly.

My DW has been working with our 4 year old grandson all school year on pre-K topics. I think he and Bill are both ready to start school next year.
