    Attempt #2 to stop lurking *pics*

    OK, so the last time I posted was probably back in October or November, when I had 2 shelties and one Shepherd/Rott x. On Dec. 20th we lost one of the shelties in her sleep and on January 14th we lost the second after he had a major stroke.

    On March 28th I adopted a new dog, a Pit Bull named Pheonix. I work at PetSmart and we do dog adoptions every Saturday, and the organization at our store had rescued a litter of pit bulls back a year ago this month. There were 13 puppies in all and over the course of about a year all but Pheonix found forever homes. Long story short, Pheonix fits in very well here.

    On to the photos!

    What a face!


    The face I see everytime he wants to come in

    OK, thats all for now! I promise to try and stop lurking! I'm starting to feel bad for knowing so much about you guys and not sharing my Babies with you!

    Thanks for the reply

    Yeah, December to January was pretty tough. Losing a dog is one of the hardest things to go through, and losing 2.. Unless you've experienced it, is hard to explain.

    But Pheonix has really helped. He is my goofy boy.

    I, too, am sorry to hear about your shelties, I cannot imagine how hard that must have been to lose two babies in such a short period of time.

    But I am so glad that you have decided to share India and Pheonix with us. They are both gorgeous dogs. India is a big beautiful girl, and Pheonix does have a face that is hard to resist. What a great family.

    That's a cool way to spell Pheonix, I've never seen it spelled that way! (Is it still pronounced the same as the bird?) You have a beautiful family. I'm sorry you had to lose both your shelties so closely together. Thank you for posting the pictures!

    I'm so sorry to hear about your Shelties. India is gorgeous and your new addition is just adorable. Congrats on not lurking! I've often wondered who you were because I would see your name on occasion. Nice to see you all.

    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Fur as dark as the night.
    Join me on this flight.
    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.
    [/SIZE]



    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.

    I'm so glad you quit lurking and posted pictures of your fur kids. They are beautiful. I have a pit/lab mix, we just got a new pit bull puppy on July 3rd. Arent pits so much fun? They have so much personality.

    I'm really sorry about your other dogs, that had to be tough on you. Please post more pictures soon.

    Thank you Kay for the beautiful sig!

    Thanks for all the replies

    finn's mom - OK, so its a kind of funny story about the spelling of his name... I swore that it was spelled Phoenix... and the S.O. (Who is a spelling master) said, nope, its Pheonix... So, yeah It's spelled however YOU want to spell it Its pronounced like the capital of Arizona. And he was named for the mythological bird, The Pheonix, because as a puppy he and his brothers/sisters had a bad case of mange, and were all infested with worms... Just very lucky dogs to be alive
