My Dogs ♥







So instead of blogging about dog advice, I'm just going to blog about my dogs for the heck of it. I have 3 dogs. Rocky is a black lab, probably about 7-8 years old. He is technically my brother's dog but I think he loves me more. Haha. Everybody thinks Rocky is a mean dog the first time they meet him because he is pretty big, but then they soon find out he is a total sweetheart. He loves to try and chase big flying birds, like hawks...bless his heart, I keep telling him someday he will catch one. ;)


Next we have Chipper. WE found Chip roaming around our neighbors house "crying" as a little puppy. Somebody just dropped him off and my neighbor was too elderly to take care of him so Dad brought him home. At that time I was in 5th grade and I had to stay after school for a play we were putting on. Mom was telling me that Daddy had brought home a new pet but wouldn't tell me what....at that point in my life I really wanted a rabbit so I was convinced that it was a rabbit. As we pulled up the driveway, I saw a brown dog get up from underneath the bench. At first glance I thought he was the ugliest dog ever until he wondered up to my door. Boy was I mistaken! He was precious!!!! He's a mutt but he's one of the sweetest dogs we have ever had. Chip loves squeaky toys and cat food. He's a "hefty" dog, but in his mind he's a lap dog. Chip loves to go walking at Panther Creek Park and he loves the back of a truck and car rides.


And last we have Jezebel....Jezzy for short. Jezzy is "my dog" because she is a big pain in the butt. Her birthday was just yesterday- we've had her for a full year. On the eve of the ice storm my Dad brought her home before the previous owners sold her to somebody else. She is part Cavalier King Charles Spaniel mixed with a Golden Retriever but she is all black and white. She is so full of energy and loves to play and chew on anything....oh and she is a major pig---so eats everything in sight! When she's not eating, getting into trouble, or annoying Chipper, she is on the couch snuggled up in your lap. She might be a pain but she is my baby girl! lol
Last night at church my friend Clint was talking about how he cried in Marley and Me. He was talking about how girls don't understand the relationship between a man and his dog. I object! I am an animal person---and I love my dogs so much. I bawled in Marley and Me, I guess he just doesn't understand my bond with all my dogs.
p.s.- I think this is the longest blog ever. : )
