Been dog less for 5 years or so, thought I was over it but something was missing in my life. My dog Jake who passed away 5 years ago was always there for me, spent many a day on long walks with him when life through us curves. Dogs are always there for you when people won’t always be.

Wifes coworker runs a rescue and we got this 10 week old English bulldog / blue heeler from her. He’s smart as hell and turning out to be a great dog. Complete pain in the ass as a puppy but worth the effort, glad to have a dog again, didn’t remember what I was missing.

Lost my dog 7 months ago and this is pretty much the first time in my life without a dog so I get the "something is missing in life" comment. Congrats, that's awesome.

Congrats. Cool pup. I couldn’t go that long without a dog. I was without for about three months while waiting for my dog to be born and it sucked coming home to an empty house. I wish you years of joy.

Awesome. Great looking pup. Looks like he might have some Bull dog colors or markings, but you can definitely see he looks mainly Heeler which is great, and his smarts are hereditary Heeler trait. I’m on my 4th Heeler and don’t know if i’ll ever have a different breed. Congrats, wish you and your new Pard the best.

He instinctively herds me all the time when I’m walking, he try’s to steer me, pretty cool that he does that from genetics

Damn, looks like such a cute dog. I wish so bad that our travel schedule our jobs would allow us to have a dog.

I absolutely love my dog but at our age I also call her my "travel anchor". Having to find a house/dog sitter for every trip is not always simple or affordable.

Good Call. We went 10 years without and ended up rescuing 2 female puppies a year ago this week. Wish we had done it sooner. Anyone that has a pic of their Best Friend post up and include name of your pet.

I’m absolutely torn. Our jack russell is 16 and pretty low maintenance. With everything going on and seeing this I’m thinking it’s time for another.

This is Snickers. She turned 1 on March 4. I was reluctant because she was free. Aside from eating the couch and other stuff she is really a good dog. Her and my 4yr old daughter are great together.
