Our pets show us so much love, no matter how bad a day is, they can always brighten it up!

I love pit bulls, they are such sweeties and have gotten such a bad rap.

She was eight when she developed hip dysplasia and had to be put down. A year and half later, our son's friend was unable to keep a puppy he'd adopted. He was a boxer pitbull mix and looked a lot like Kelly. We adopted him and named him Chase. He's now two and a big, hulking 85 pounds. But he's a real sweetie and a very well behaved dog. Doesn't get into much trouble at all, but I think he gets worn out playing with his doggie friends in the dog park.Susan Macateehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07476340887041053638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2309889683510740604.post-53076658580484138572012-04-16T17:12:10.673-04:002012-04-16T17:12:10.673-04:00Hi Amy, I love the name Kitty Perry.

I like poodles, but I'm not crazy about the poofy haircuts that seems to be the style for them. I think I read somewhere that poodles are extremely intelligent.

He showed up on our doorstep little more than a kitten during a terrible rainstorm. We took him in, dried him off, and gave him some tuna. We put an ad in the newspaper that we'd found a cat, no one claimed him so from that day on, he became my shadow following me everywhere I went around the house. While I still miss him every day, I take comfort in the fact that he adopted me as much as I had adopted him.<br /><br />Katherineg425@yahoo.comKatherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13752337710626176062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2309889683510740604.post-56704733570931621202012-04-16T11:29:28.540-04:002012-04-16T11:29:28.540-04:00Thanks for stopping by, Toni.
